Quick question:
Is it "for fucks sake" or "for fuck sake"?
It's for a
letter to my MLA
so has to sound professional.
UPDATE: I HAVE RECENTLY LEARNED IT IS
"FOR FUCK'S SAKE" —NOW, IF YOU NEED ME.

Imagine if an election volunteer came to your door and said, "we're going to create laws around controlling children's activities with their own genitals, fund private schools and cause the first-ever province-wide public teachers strike, invite coal mining into a watershed in chronic drought... 1/

Stop falling for BS from bad faith actors like Berta Proud Dad. You’re telling me this “teacher” doesn’t know how to use a comma or spell? The post is much longer, but it’s not worth sharing. This is a fake letter. Every teacher, regardless of major/minor, is required to do English classes #alberta

Here's a ditterent perspective than one trom the Uniong:22
Berta Proud Dad

From A Teacher
Hi Berta Proud Dad,
Thank you so much for exposing the union! I was a teacher that did NOT vote in favour of the strike but was definitely pushed to and made to "feel bad" for not voting with the rest of the teachers. It is so frustrating to be apart of this when you don't want to be! The only people suffering are those students and if they were really "for the students" like so many teachers say they are, this wouldn't be happening.
The biggest frustrations I have is that the teachers don't realize that with a bigger increase in salary, the higher the tax bracket which means they are going to be taking home about the same as now..also they bitch about wanting lower taxes, but that can't happen if they expect higher wages.
The other thing, I would like to know how many of those teachers complaining about income got into teaching for the money. I sure as heck didn't! It was for the kids because I have a genuine interest in seeing them succeed.
The union pushing this love of orange to all teachers but they didn't do anything for us while they had power. In fact our class sizes increased with them in power. And on that note, they need to get angry with the federal loonie toons who keep taking in every Tom dick and harry from anywhere. That's why some areas have such high class sizes.

Where is the Alberta Prosperity Project getting money to fund separatist ads? Looks like they may have taken the USA up on their loan offer… #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli can we kick these losers out?

The language here ticks me off. “Never again” apparently only matters if you’re Jewish. I hate this man. #cdnpoli #polievre #gaza
We all want an end to the deaths, but blaming everything on Hamas and absolving Israel of its war crimes and genocide is sick. How about “Never PM”

Pierre Poilievre •

Two years after Hamas' sadistic attack on innocent Israelis, the families of twenty hostages are finally able to hug their loved ones. This peace provides an opportunity for the Hamas-launched bloodshed to finally end, which has been a tragic reality for too long.
Twenty-eight other hostages were murdered, and for those who knew them, it is still a moment of immense grief. We hope their bodies will be quickly recovered and their families, friends and loved ones might be able to find closure with their return.
The October 7th attacks were the darkest day for the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
Through it all, Israelis and Jews around the world have shown incredible resilience, with hope that the safe return of the hostages could bring the war to an end.
We thank President Trump for his leadership negotiating a peaceful closure to this war and hope that it serves to bring lasting, generational peace.
Never Forget, and Never Again.

What grade is “The Left Hand of Darkness”? I only ask because I read that book in University, and found some parts challenging.

Dear NDP.

Now is when you say that if elected, you will cap class sizes at 25 over an 3 year period to allow for the required capacity buildout.

That’s all you have to do here.

Did you see the Alberta Next town hall where Bruce suggested a child should be spanked for asking a question he didn’t like?

Alberta is a place where we can't fund -
Education
Covid shots
Healthcare
Or prescriptions for seniors
To name a few

But we can build a pipeline that only benefits O&G
The same O&G industry that is automating & laying off workers

The UCP only care about their donors

Nope. He appears to be very pro censorship, given the other panels and how often he cuts off everyone he disagrees with

I wish I could say I was surprised, but it’s just like Smith to silence those who don’t agree with her. #ableg #abpoli

MLA Shane Getson is getting a little testy with his Facebook Followers. The UCP are cutting off microphones of those with opposing views, trolling citizens, spending tax dollars taking out ads against teachers that could go into schools, and suggesting parents beat their kids. #ableg

I am disappointed that the province has not been able to come up with a deal. Properly funding education is important to our province's future.

If you are part of the government, people get to criticize you.

People who say otherwise are authoritarians who hate freedom and they need to be stopped.
