You're driving down the highway. The radio broadcasts an interview with a UCP MLA. You remind yourself, like the weather, wait 5 minutes and the lie will change.

I present to you independent MLA Peter Guthrie. Where once our government governed for Albertans. Not now, where native white politicians have been swayed by outside interference for power and profit. Watch and listen from one of their own.

Yet ANOTHER evidence-free & disastrous policy move by Alberta.

NO evidence will help system. On the contrary: > costs < equity > inefficiencies < quality

Are they TRYING to ruin AB?

Tomorrow, the Auditor General will release his report into the UCP's Dynalife fiasco.

They're hoping to flood the zone this week with citizenship markers and anti-trans legislation.

Keep your focus on the targets.
And the broader pattern.

The UCP is shifting Alberta away from liberal democracy.
Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

But not impossible.

Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

Who's next?

Now that the notwithstanding clause has become a routine policymaking tool for the UCP, we need to look ahead to their next targets.

This month's AGM will provide clues.

Basically the UCP are turning Alberta into a toilet bowl. Are they worried, Smith has a Plan B.
Short video. @drewanderson.bsky.social nailing it.

Many Alberta oil & gas companies aren’t paying landowners or municipal taxes. The Regulator is opaque.

MAGA Energy Ltd. Is one of hundreds of bad actors allowed to run wild at everyone else’s expense.

When does she morph into Smith 2.0? Has she already?

You know those signs you see coming in to Alberta. I think "Widrose Country" should be changed to "Pandemic Alley" after losing measle free status & just announced tuberculosis outbreak. "Warning Don't Stare" is a good one.

Great article by Janet French on how to make Albertans look stupid.
The Alberta government says it will pay for 3,000 more teachers over three years to ease a classroom crunch.

But the money didn't come as a result of the strike. It was already in last spring's budget before the Alberta teachers' walked off the job. #AbLeg #AbEd

Just heard Poilievre's standard spiel in a radio clip, not verbatim, "Good jobs, work hard, get a home". It reminded of a movie where a mid 1800 employer addresses the workers.
But the image it gave me was a gang boss, "Slave. Work harder, we might feed you".
November 12, 2025 at 10:30 PM
I have different interpretation. Poilievre will remain leader of the CPC for the very same reason the 1% funded Trump into power.
What makes Pierre Poilievre different from past Conservative leaders?

His base is emotionally invested in him in a way not seen since Harper. But that same intensity alienates many others.

I wrote about the paradox in the Toronto Star: www.thestar.com/opinion/con...
Pierre Poilievre’s popularity is unprecedented. But is his future as Conservative leader safe?
Conservative Party of Canada members love him, but is it time to replace the party’s leader?

With all the BS going down with the UCP. Corrupt Care, Not With Standin, hefty raises, suspicious sole source contracts, private school funding, hockey tickets, etc.. I gotta wonder, largest caucus in Alberta history? Was it for efficiency or so more could be set for life at the feed trough?
