The most radical thing to be right now is kind.
The most powerful position to occupy is high ground.
The most powerful weapons against tyranny are laughter and resolve.
Together, we can all achieve more.
Let us build a better world for we many, not just the vainglorious few.

Let's be clear about what happened today.
Premier Smith introduced a bill to strip Albertans of Charter rights,
denied MLAs the opportunity to debate it and the courts the ability to scrutinize it,
and did all of this from her seat on a jet to Saudi Arabia.

The UCP government has invoked time allocation and on a bill removing Albertans' Charter rights.
And they're using the notwithstanding clause to do it.
Here's why that is a dangerous precedent. And why real conservatives need to stand up against it.

It's the same here in Canada. All farming countries are deeply conservative; meanwhile it's the conservatives that hurt farmers interests over and over and over again.

#abpoli #cdnpoli Wondering if the $95mill Alberta taxpayers just "gifted" this coal company was because the company legitimately lost this amount or if this is hush $s to protect yet more UCP f**k ups.
New coal settlement alert! This time, 95M. The only reason we know this because the company posted the amount & not govt.
This taxpayer money should be funding education & healthcare but instead, Albertans continue to pay for the UCP flip flopping on coal policy #ableg
