Anyone who doubts an Alberta Police Force would be closer to ICE than the RCMP needs to pay closer attention to detail. And motive.

James Talarico: The Bible doesn't mention abortion or gay marriage, but it goes on and on about forgiving debt, liberating the poor, and healing the sick. The closest thing we have to the kingdom of heaven is a multiracial, multicultural democracy where power is truly shared among all people

Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?
An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.
I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

When he says “record education funding” he means in nominal terms — and forgets to mention that nominal funding is almost always at record highs.
On a per-student basis, and after adjusting for inflation? It isn’t even close.

When I became a Senator, I started flying a lot. Back and forth from Edmonton to Ottawa - not to mention flights to conferences and events. I had never before understood the archaic way that flight attendants are paid. The clock only starts when the airplane door closes. 🧵

Highest auto insurance premiums in the country. Highest utility rates, too. Slowest rate of wage growth. Fastest increase in rents. But, sure, a tiny decrease in taxes — paid for by underfunding health care, education & municipalities.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much?
They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs.
Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher.
Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.”
It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.
