Those who commit the crimes may be powerful but they don’t get to decide whether or not they are guilty.
I offer this history lesson on why Canada must stand up against murder on the high seas today.

I freaking hate every single member of the UCP government and all of their supporters. I wish I believed there is a hell for them to burn in.
At a time when Albertans are struggling to afford groceries, utilities, and rent, the UCP voted against raising the minimum wage and gave themselves a raise instead.

This government does not care about the priorities that matter most to you.

The UCP is putting their ideology ahead of good health care.

American-style two-tiered health care will result in more expensive care and longer wait times for Albertans. #abhealth #ableg #abpoli

2/8 The logic is seductive: let those who can pay exit the public queue, shortening it for everyone else.

But this fails the laws of physics.

👉 The number of doctor hours is finite. You aren't adding capacity; you're just reshuffling the line based on a wallet biopsy rather than medical need. 👈

Did you know that not all scientific evidence has the same weight?

The more the study relies on an expert's opinion, rather than many data points and peer-review, the higher the risk of bias.

This applies to us here in Canada as well.
Since Stephen Miller is in the midst of another of his Aryans-only trantrums, we should note that his family are 20th century immigrants from the shtetl of Antopol (Антопаль) then in the Hrodna gubernia of Russia. Applying his immigration rules, they would all have perished in the Holocaust.
Stephen Miller Is an Immigration Hypocrite. I Know Because I’m His Uncle.
If my nephew’s ideas on immigration had been in force a century ago, our family would have been wiped out.

Say no to private healthcare.

Private health services will only be for those wealthy enough to pay and it will suck up healthcare practitioners. The rest of us will get the dregs of the public system.

Sadly, this current AB government may actually be the death of some of us. Or a bankruptcy.

Twitter now displays where accounts are from and it has confirmed that too many of the political accounts are out of country bots.

Why are folks still there? To argue with bots? A waste of precious time while enriching the richest man on Earth.

“A government does not reach for the notwithstanding clause four times in a month unless something is deeply wrong. This isn’t normal. It isn’t safe. And it isn’t democracy. Each time rights are pushed aside, a warning siren is blaring: Power is being placed above people.”
