For this you deserve all the accolades for your transparency and advocacy. You show people that you can walk the talk. And thank you for being transparent, accountable, and respectful while being an amazing advocate for democracy! Thank you!!!

It’s hard to demand transparency from others when you don’t have transparency yourself. I certainly reconsider listening to their content versus someone else who transparent. They’re not the only creators and they still rely on journalists from reputable sources. Often I’ll just read the article.

I think the UCP is panicking as well. When is his leadership review again? I kid, sort of.

It’s sad that we have so many examples at our disposal, but some people are just adamant about walking into the same wall. Ugh.

Most of Canada is so over this. We’re waiting for the rest to catch up.

It’s like telling your friend that they shouldn’t drive drunk, but you find out they did it anyway. It’s hard to watch.

So much heartbreak. I want to see Canada step up with Europe to help Ukraine. Thanks for sharing this. It’s worth the read (for anyone who hasn’t already read it).

So so so many shenanigans abound.

Yeah. I just hate it when my elected representatives are concerned about real issues like housing, keeping citizens safe and healthy, and whether or not we’re eating or finding work. They’re “keeping it real” by preventing anyone who isn’t UCP from even saying the word “conservative” and wasting $.

Great conversation too. Seriously. Listen to this.

What a great shoutout! 🥹 They’re the only outlet that is talking about demand and projected demand for Alberta’s bitumen resource. It’s an expensive project when that commodity has uses that are more profitable and beneficial use of the resource (asphalt, for example).

I shudder. Given the foreign influence in the separatist movement, I wonder why we don’t talk about how treasonous their goal is? It’s a race to the bottom. Hate is never a good look.

You follow the law and over 400,000 Albertans signed in support of real leadership. The kind of leadership that follows the laws and doesn’t need to bend them to wield power. I quite enjoy seeing them shaking in their boots.

If it’s a race to the bottom, Dani is always going to win. I struggle to think of any benefit the UCP has given me. When I was young I could say that I got a few Ralph bucks to spend on beer and gas, at least. But now I’m just struggling to pay for housing and groceries.
