Trump doesn’t want a new trade deal.

He wants Canada!

this is not good and entirely undemocratic. we have to get past the "pp would be worse" narrative and wake up to what carney is doing.

Althia Raj: Mark Carney is quietly giving sweeping new powers to his ministers
Sneaking a change of this magnitude into a 600-page bill that will not get parliamentary scrutiny raises a red flag, Althia Raj writes.

So, a Qanon, separatist, MAGA-loving, wannabe Queen supported by just 6,919 Alberta voters & a UCP supported by just 928,900 voters (less than 1/3 of 3 million eligible) should be able to make/change laws to benefit themselves on a whim?

That's Smith & the UCP's idea of democracy, folks! Turf em!

EDMONTON - Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says anyone seeking an independence referendum should not have "gatekeepers," like the courts, standing in their way.

In the course of less than 24 hours, Danielle Smith's right hand man is apparently attempting to delegitimize both the courts AND journalists.

Is there a name for that?

The whole "federal judges aren't impartial" bs is stolen from fascism in the US. There's no basis for it in Canadian judicial reality. Canadian fascism is awful enough without Danielle Smith importing an even worse version of it from Americans. #abpoli
Smith doubled down on her anti court rhetoric today...

She even seemed to suggest that federally appointed judges couldn't render impartial rulings and that she believed her interpretation should always be above theirs.

Nothing indicates future corruption like passing a law to give yourself immunity from your actions under the guise of "official duties"
#ableg #abpoli
Another change proposed in the bill is to give Alberta’s justice minister immunity from sanctions from the Law Society of Alberta, which regulates lawyers, for any actions they perform as part of their “official duties” — a term not defined in the legislature.

Hernandez was charged in a court of law with due process because he ran a narco state that flooded America with drugs
He was found guilty

Hernandez was pardoned by Trump who is now blowing up boats, killing survivors without due process, wants a war in Venezuela to stop drugs flowing into America
Former President of Honduras -- who flooded the United States with cocaine and was sentenced to 45 years in prison -- WAS JUST FREED after Trump inexplicably pardoned him.

Danielle Smith & the UCP have deeply damaged Albertans’ ability to access care.

And their plan to impose two-tier, Americanized healthcare is only going to make it worse.

The UCP didn’t run on this.

We need to fight this attack on our public healthcare system. We need to fight Bill 11 #abpoli
