Give Voice AB - Resistance, rooted in community. @givevoiceab.bsky.social · Jun 1
✨ We’re excited to announce that Give Voice AB officially started organizing on May 20th, 2025!

We’re a grassroots group of people who simply enjoy learning from each other, having great conversations, and working together to amplify the voices that need to be heard.
#GiveVoiceAB
A high-resolution infographic sequence for "Give Voice AB" features a consistent teal green background with white text, organized into structured sections that highlight the organization’s mission, values, and community activities. At the top, bold uppercase letters spell "GIVE VOICE AB," followed by the tagline: "We’re people who care—about our communities, our province, and Canada. Against separation, we’re taking action together." Directly below, a prominent rectangular box with a white border contains the section "WHAT WE DO," listing activities like taking action together through rallies, letters, and conversations based on what matters most, amplifying voices that need to be heard—individuals, communities, and causes that deserve support—learning together, asking questions, and helping make sense of what’s happening, providing a space to connect, speak up, and act with care, and encouraging everyone to give their voice. A small red maple leaf symbol appears near the text. Below this, another white-bordered box labeled "WHERE WE ARE" details community roots in Edmonton and St. Albert, mentions meeting places like libraries, coffee shops, parks, and community spaces, emphasizes growing from the ground up while connecting with neighbors, groups, and everyday people, and concludes with the phrase "This movement begins where you are." A small circular "GIVE VOICE" icon with a megaphone is positioned at the top right of this section. Throughout the infographic, clear sans-serif font is used with a mix of bullet points and short paragraphs, maintaining high readability and visual consistency. The bottom of the graphic features a large, bold call-to-action bar stating "GIVE VOICE. BUILD WHAT MATTERS." followed by a repeated smaller version of the same tagline beneath it, reinforcing the organization’s message and commitment to community-driven change.

We attended a small but mighty protest this morning at MLA Dale Naly’s office in Morinville. Currently, Naly is away in Las Vegas on “business.” #DaleNaly #UCP #ABpoli #ABED

Why are my tax dollars subsidizing private schools?

“Stories about dubious contracts are already surfacing in both sectors.”

Sole source contracts w rampant conflicts of interest???

Lavish private-school funding infuriates teachers, spooks government. They wanted to spank Evan Li because he dared mention it. Column. calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu... #abed #ableg #yyc #yeg #apoli #cdnpoli
Braid: Lavish private-school funding infuriates teachers, spooks government
Spanking spat last week was caused by student Evan Li hitting a sore spot on eve of teacher strike — lush funding for private schools.

There will be more demand on our health care system because the AB Government has put up roadblocks to getting a Covid Vaccine. More demand on the system from more sick people that ripples and affects all areas of acute care. #AxeTheVaxTax #ABleg #ABpoli The admin fee is a burden on families.

The Alberta Next panel was like a Springfield town hall run by #SpankyMcAllister —only instead of jokes, we got open hostility toward immigrants. The panelists weren’t just silent; they were complicit, grinning like they’d just been promised a cushy job at the Nuclear Plant. #AlbertaNext #Abpoli

The message was clear - Albertans stand with teachers. And so did we.

Over 20,000 people gathered at the Legislature to fight for public education & tell Danielle Smith & the UCP they need to fix what they’ve broken in our schools. #abpoli

Thousands of people, many of whom held flags or picket signs, gathered at the Alberta Legislature in Edmonton Sunday morning to rally for public education, as a potentially historic teachers' strike looms.

Is $30/day enough? Not even close.

"When you're talking about disabled kids, we can't just go to the teenager down the street and ask them to take care of our kids."

Thank you, CBC, for running this story.

It's official: Alberta now has the lowest minimum wage in the country. 🏅

The minimum wage hasn't been raised since 2018, and Danielle Smith has no plans to change this.

The True Measure of Leadership: A single high school student's moral clarity is heavier than the collective silence of the Alberta Next panel. Institutional Hypocrisy cannot stand up to integrity. The public sees the difference. #ABpoli #Leadership #AlbertaNext #DanielleSmith
The measure of leadership , one student's integrity outweighs a panel of dignitaries
