I think for Halloween I may put on a blue suit, a strand of pearls and a brown wig, and wander around saying “Well look,” in an authoritative but slightly pissy tone because that’s the scariest thing in Alberta right now.

Dobrou chuť. Also delicious with milled poppy seeds, icing sugar and butter. 😛

Just burning our money. Literally.

so no private entity, as has been been promised by DS for months.

This is insane. public money shouldn't be building infrastructure for oil and gas companies. They're rich enough (and smart enough) to do their own investing in worthwhile projects.

The abuse Evan received in #Calgary #AlbertaNext from #BruceMcAllister is a pattern. This time it was a high school student. McAllister should have been fired after Edmonton. No company would accept an employee with this abusive behaviour. Why are we paying this guy?

Alberta Next says “have your say” — until you do. Then the moderator spits “get lost” and calls you “disgusting.” They preach engagement while silencing voices. The mask slips, and the farce is plain. #Ableg #ABpoli #AlbertaNext #AlbertNextPropagandaTour

Two-panel meme titled “How it started” on the left and “How it’s going” on the right. The left panel has a blue background with the caption “Slogans from the Alberta Next website” followed by stacked slogans: “Your Voice Matters!”, “Albertans need a direct say”, “Share Your Ideas”, “Have your say”, “Weigh In With Your Thoughts”, “What’s Next? You Decide.”, and “This isn’t just about talk, it’s about action.” The right panel has a dark blue background with the caption “Moderator Bruce McAllister to audience member:” above a screenshot of Bruce McAllister speaking at a podium labeled “Alberta Next Panel” with the Alberta flag behind him. Below the image is the quote in large white text: “Get lost. You are disgusting.” At the bottom, in smaller text, it reads “Alberta Next Town Hall Edmonton Aug 14-2025

Without some amazing teachers throughout the years I would have NEVER become a doctor.
Without the amazing PUBLIC education system I wouldn't be where I am today (my family could NOT have afforded private eductation streams).

I stand with our teachers and for our future students!

Exactly. The condescending tone. The sense of entitlement. Way past his best before date. Time to resign.

The Breakdown AB @thebreakdownab.bsky.social · 8d

This is Bruce in August.

His apology might frame last nights abuse of speakers as a one off, but his contempt for Albertans isn’t a one off, it’s a pattern.

And one that Smith tolerates and endorses.

Funding private, starving public. And warring with the teachers.

This is the UCP.

McAllister is a POS. He's UCP so I guess I repeated myself.

Disgraceful conduct by Bruce McCallister at last night's Alberta Next Panel in Calgary. @abdanielsmith.bsky.social and her bullies have no place in leadership. Silencing and threatening a citizen is cowardly. Evan deserves an apology.

This is OUTRAGEOUS. He shut down a student, turned off his microphone, because he didn't like the question. Then he turned off the next speaker's mic because she dared ask about vulnerable people. This government needs to be kicked to the curb, fast.

I don’t even know what to say.

If anyone on that panel had morals and a spine, they’d quit the travelling sideshow, “Another Roadside Distraction,” and make a public statement about why.

The Breakdown AB @thebreakdownab.bsky.social · 8d

At tonight’s “consultation”…

When a high school kid tried to raise concerns about the teachers strike, Bruce McAllister cut the kids mic and then suggested his parents should have beaten him more.

Listen to the clip yourself…

It’s…
