Oh fun!

The UCP’s latest push poll/survey comes with an email when you’re done, complete with an attack on the media!

What’s that a sign of again?

Most ABs would vote to stay in Canada, Angus Reid survey find 2/3 would vote to remain in Canada, most saying their decision is definite. Fewer than 3/10 ABs said they would vote to separation. Most said they are leaning toward that position not firmly committed.

About f--king time.
My question is why the media happily ran after every "flooding the zone with shit" play from MAGA Alberta while ignoring the obvious Donbas playbook being used in Alberta.
Donbas Danielle is not playing with fire.
She's burning our house.

Remember the hypocrisy of Danielle Smith telling Albertans we can't afford net zero and the power grid would be at risk if forced to adopt EV's. A year later she's building out and pushing data centres which would consume more power than any EV's ever sold and used in Alberta. #abpoli

Is this real, @cbsnews.com? Are you actually giving these science-free grifters a bigger audience?

If so, you have NO credibility or shame. These individual are part of Dark Age 2.0.

Pls pls pls reconsider. The world needs more light & truth, not exploitive fearmongering BS.
