The UCP is changing the law to protect themselves from consequences that apply to every other Albertan.
Why does the UCP think they're above the rule of law?

Im a proud Canadian with family in the US. It is a constant concern as to whether they can continue to afford their healthcare. So many lose their homes and lives due to medical costs. Not a system for the people.

We have to stop just blaming trump. It’s the entire Republican Party! They don’t give a damn about everyday Americans. Like Trump they only care about power & money. Don’t believe me take a good look at their “big, ugly bill”.

Bullshit alert: some NZ politicians (dishonestly) claiming that the puberty blocker ban is about "saving" kids from "unnecessary" medical interventions and "letting them make up their own minds"

No, that's *what puberty blockers* do. It gives those kids time to work out their own identity.

"This is the Alberta government saying that the rights of trans kids to receive life-saving health care, go by their own pronouns at school or play on sport teams don’t matter as much as the Smith government’s right to dictate their lives."

Alberta thinks that if it secedes to become a "51st state," they would be another Montana or Wyoming.

No, they would be another Puerto Rico. Or Guam. Nothing more than a U.S. territory which would be exploited while having no rights as a state.

Do Albertans not understand that?

An estimated 15.7 million workers use SNAP. It’s a lifeline for those in low-wage jobs.

Meanwhile, CEOs are paid 280x as much as the typical worker.

Don’t be angry at workers for using food stamps.

Be angry at the corporations paying them so little that they need them.

It’s funny how wearing masks during a pandemic contagion was too much, but wearing them to beat up brown people is just fine.

I thought they interfered with heavy breathing.

So that precious 2nd amendment turned out to be good for nothing but dead kids in classrooms, I see.

So much for armed patriots standing up to a tyrannical government.
