Danielle Smith... Who just proposed a pipeline to Southern BC because of the inherent difficulties in running an oil pipeline to Northern BC and the dangers of the strait... Now wants the pipeline ban lifted for the strait. Got it. Anything to enrage the base... #cdnpoli

It's also worth remembering that not a single elected official was interviewed in the course of the investigation. But Smith says that's good enough, even though her then Chief of staff was living in a Mraiche family mansion and 2 family members were hired after major gifts... /3

"Corrupt Care" was front and centre today! And when an NDP MLA asked about money laundering, Speaker Ric McIver (who became speaker well after the scandal had unfolded publicly), angrily demanded an apology! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Oh fun! Alberta is spending 25.8 million to build new school buildings for schools that are either religious or religious adjacent… Including one is Sylvan lake. Whose student body is made up of almost 3/4 home schooled kids it supports the home schooling of.

😲 While everyone is focused on the gerrymandering and the UCP AGM, there's a whole other ugly storyline going down. 🤔

Unfortunately, I have little faith that the RCMP will charge anyone or that they will complete their investigation in time for it to matter. They let everyone in Kenney's leadership scandal off the hook by slow walking the investigation. Justice delayed is justice denied. Cops are right wing.

7 con provinces now so no doubt she'll use this to wreck the constitution by going after the Treaties. Harper's good dog.

From Lula’s victory speech. Hard to argue. 🇧🇷 “We had to overcome foreign interference through digital platforms, which we will have to regulate. We cannot have monstrously large corporations earning millions and billions, paying no taxes to this country and trying to steer our election results.”

So they are playing the " We're not evil, we're just really incompetent" card again. They've done this quite a few times before. Do we still believe them Alberta? I mean C'mon. ...and even if you do, why should we accept that level of uselessness from a leader? ( she is evil though)

Here they come, throwing their crumbs at the peasants hoping they will be stupid enough to vote for them again.

Hey Alberta: is this incompetence or a full on intentional lie? 9003 Acute Care Spaces is NOWHERE near a record number for our prov In the late 1980s we had 17,790 acute care spaces in hospitals (~12,000 acute care beds, +LTC beds) 1988: 7.4 beds/1000 2026: 1.5 beds/1000 1/2

When the price of oil dropped through the floor and Alberta was in need of help in 2014/15 it was the NDP that negotiated a new pipeline with Justin Trudeau. That pipeline is now pumping mucho dinero into Alberta's economy. Don't see any Conservative pipelines around do we?

For 51 of the last 55 yrs conservatives have been in power in Alberta That's 51 years of underfunding healthcare & education But according to conservatives, 4 years of NDP government destroyed Alberta The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over & over & expecting a different result
