YYC. Left leaning. Retired therapist. She/her. Mostly looking for news and politics. Known to quote Dr. John Gottman's 5 point criteria for trustworthiness. (Why date, work for, or even vote for, someone who doesn't pass?)

She’s got a new toy and she wants to play with it.

Remember this? Destroying our public schools has always been their intention. #abpoli #alberta #redfored #wreckingball

I intend to ask my MLA if she is being bribed or is this blackmail?

Let it be so!

With Danielle Smith, there's ALWAYS a clip 😂.

I think you have good reason to be. As a Canadian, I fear for your country.

There won’t be midterms

You won’t have free and fair midterms. Your government will stay shut down. (My predictions watching from Canada.)

Be cautious. She’s been known to tell you one thing but do/vote the opposite.

Hoping for a better world 🧡💜🇨🇦 @rlbca.bsky.social · 9d

Correct me if I’m wrong, but aren’t we “left” NOT authoritarian by definition?

Hoping for a better world 🧡💜🇨🇦 @rlbca.bsky.social · 9d

Bring in portables in the interim.

Started at 12 when I had an Aussie teacher who turned us on to Dylan and other folk singers of the late 68s. Impact would have been from then until late 70s when being a mom became priority.

I’ve met her twice and emailed many times. The main theme of my emails has been pushing her to act with integrity but I think that’s impossible. She will say one thing, supposedly to reassure you, and then vote the opposite.

Call me surprised? No. She is so in over her head in that portfolio. She's only there because she's a UCP robot. Time for a recall.

Was wondering the same thing.

Your post reminded me that I was going to do that today. My goodness, that is the most crazy-making process ever. I technically qualify for a free shot -- diabetic but borderline so we'll see -- but I'm ready to bash my head against a wall. I did get an appointment for November 21.

Maybe scratch the whole “pursuit of happiness” phrase. It carries with it an individuality that implies “regardless of others.”

We do… but we aren’t coming for a visit until he’s gone.

You have my Canadian sympathies.

Wow! Vile!

Hoping for a better world 🧡💜🇨🇦 @rlbca.bsky.social · 14d

And we are all thinking "what stupid thing will she say today?"

Oh Keean. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Hoping for a better world 🧡💜🇨🇦 @rlbca.bsky.social · 15d

Hoping to be there. Will add a second side to my sign. And a stick. Still laughing that it was shared.

Just a reminder, while Danielle Smith is doing license plate popularity contests our kids are in classrooms of 50+ students with 1 teacher and no aids.

I stand with the teachers union. This province leadership has it ass backwards.
