Separatist Jeff Rath (Alberta Prosperity Project) says that the “US administration is very excited about Alberta independence”.

Rath and Cam Davies (Alberta Republican Party) visited Mar-a-Lago and White House several times.

Who arranges these meetings?

Stan Houston: This was the year when the U.S. president and the Alberta premier further imposed ideology over evidence-based reason, endangering the lives of citizens.

It’s as if, in setting policy in science and health, they asked themselves: What would Stalin do? #uspoli #abpoli

The day after a massive chinook day is exactly the use case for why we should take snow clearing more seriously in this town… pretty much all residential roads are an ice rink. Gonna be a lot of fender benders. Roll slowly #yycbike

The #ForeverCanadian movement swept the province with Albertans gathering signatures on driveways, parks and festivals. The movement mobilized Albertans to stand up for democracy, for the province's role in Canada, and for Alberta's future.

Before the midterms of 1866, President Andrew Johnson called his congressional opponents traitors and said they should be hanged.

Voters were so profoundly moved by his words... that they gave his opponents a supermajority in Congress, and the nation got the Fourteenth Amendment.

Missouri voters overturned a complete abortion ban at the ballot last year.

It is still difficult to receive reproductive care in the state because the Missouri GOP doesn't give two shits about the will or the voices of Missourians.

Megyn Kelly is not just problematic in her defense of Trump and Epstein…she is emblematic of the decline in humanity infesting the Republican Party. The double standard for the definition of a child. The excuses…the rot at the center of the GOP.

“A lot of people worked for a long time to achieve measles elimination status, and to lose it in one year because of a failure of government action … for a disease that’s totally preventable, it just makes me sad.”

“I think they should be embarrassed. ... I think they owe an apology to Albertans”
A former chief medical officer of health for Alberta says the provincial government should be embarrassed by the role Alberta has played in Canada’s measles outbreaks and loss of the country's measles elimination status
