Listen to our PM's clear-eyed pragmatism: a clarion call to reason & a promise for our future.

Consider how Poilievre's & Smith's cynical politics of performative grievance are worse than useless in this moment. Choose Canada. #cndpoli #ableg #abpoli

Wilkerson's lawyer discussed Trump/Putin connection via Epstein. www.youtube.com/watch?v=EZao...

Files reveal depraved depths of human cruelty endured by victims. This is the regime Smith/ #UCP lionize. That fetid smell is #MAGA decay & rot seeping into #ableg.

Trump posts Obamas as apes. Racist. Disgusting.

THIS is the regime #UCP-MAGA seek to appease & emulate.
A murderous, lawless, fascist regime #UCP/Smith heroize.
MAGA's playbook UCP/Smith deploy-pick stupid fights, placate lunatics, perform outrage. Divide & manipulate. #ableg #cndpoli #abpoli

Here's some MAGA bullshit right here.

No one in AB voted for MAGA but that's what we got. #UCP-MAGA is not interested in governing with integrity or honesty.

She's creating a problem a la Trump. American dreck has no place in AB.

Calling teachers to an adv council, Nicolaides claims: Teachers understand the realities of today’s classrooms. Their expertise is essential to addressing class size & classroom complexity...

Essential. Sure. But can't have their human & democratic rights respected by #UCP-MAGA #ableg #UCP #abed

Tulsi Gabbard and Kash Patel are now in charge of preserving the "sanctity" of American elections.

Hope is not the conviction that something will turn out well, but the certainty that something makes sense.- Vaclav Havel

Canada's PM makes sense. Alberta's Premier makes no sense & trades in absurdities & disunity. We must claim our hope & vote the #UCP-MAGA out.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

Calm cool collected. Works for many of us. Appreciate PMMC he cld have retired but he is a true public servant and is using his gifts and skills to help the country and its people. Canada is most fortunate.
It is time to fold in the Dippers. I suppose Avi Lewis could be a saviour, but this is bleaker than anything I've seen for them. Carney has captured Canada. ❤️🍁

THIS is the #UCP-MAGA & #CPC wasteland. Heed the warnings. Smith calls Noem a "hero"; seeks her own police, covets CPP, bans books & strips teachers' rights, attacks healthcare & PubEd. #abpoli #ableg #UCP

The campaign by Alberta’s #UCP to remake the province’s health-care system has created chaos.

But, according to a Tyee analysis, there has also been a steep financial cost. @charlesrusnell.bsky.social reports.
