Again, the DOJ's own research finds immigrants AND undocumented immigrants commit LESS crime.

Immigration ≠ > crime and < safety. Period.

Deportation ≠ > safety and < crime. Period.

Remember: it is a LIE that immigration is associated with crime (on the contrary), including undocumented.

This isn't said enough. Connecting immigrants to crime is a foundational LIE.

Always be skeptical of a policy or action based on this spin.

Smith finally said it out loud...

She doesn't believe that government should be providing any services to Albertans, she believes that private companies should be used universally to provide services.

Faith groups should take care of the vulnerable.

The trouble with the UCP's dual practice model?

Think about a double double.

If the line at Tim’s is long because there’s only one person pouring coffee, opening an “express lane” for people who tip $20 doesn’t speed things up. It means those with more money get the coffee while others wait.
Back in school, I wrote an essay about how two-tier healthcare would improve access for everyone.

It makes intuitive sense: create a second line and the original one gets shorter, right?

A better look at the evidence and arguments like Picard's changed my mind. 🧵
Picard’s point on AB’s new “dual practice” plan: evidence shows letting surgeons bill public & private won’t fix wait times, it likely lengthens them, drains staff from public hospitals, adds red tape, and undermines access.

A solution in search of a problem. www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/70a7e73...

As UCP strips teachers rights to avoid funding public education, they fund private schools with 0 oversight.

Same playbook as dismantling public healthcare.

The UCP have been claiming they were willing to enter mediation to reach a fair deal with teachers.

But as I explain, the UCP’s reaction when a mediator recently ruled against them makes it pretty clear they can’t be trusted to keep any deal that doesn’t favour them.
