Do you have your mail-in ballot? It's recommended you put it in the mail by this Friday, Oct 9, so it arrives in Edmonton by the deadline of Friday, Oct 16. VOTE: NO to the 9 and Option 1 (Remain in Canada) for the 10th question.

Advance voting for Alberta's Referendum is Tues 13 Oct - Sat 17 Oct. Electors may choose to vote at any advance voting place in their electoral division. VOTE NO to the 9; Option 1, Stay in Canada, for question 10.

Say NO to the nine.

My rallying cry. We must reject these nine noxious questions, which are cynically designed to incite discrimination and foment distrust in our courts, our county, and our fellow Canadians. Say no to the nine. And please read snd share. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli #Canada #Alberta #notothenine

The reality in Alberta right now: β€’ Measles cases 6x higher than the rest of Western Canada combined β€’ Highest youth unemployment in the country at 17.2% β€’ Separatist talk driving economic uncertainty β€’ Soaring utility and insurance costs This is what happens when ideology outweighs leadership.

I'm so tired of Danielle Smith's fabrications. At a time when Canadians should be coming together to stand up to the bully to the south, she sows division. We need a general election in Alberta now or, failing that, at least by-elections in the 3 vacant riding. Bring it on!

Trump started his 51st state rhetoric again yesterday. Canada, it's time to go FULL CARNEY. Enough is enough. #ElbowsUP! πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ #yyc #Calgary #yeg #Alberta #Canada #cdnpoli #CanadaSky #FullCarney #VoteCarney #VoteLiberal #TeamCanada #MarkCarney

Excellent, wide-ranging interview. Mark Carney faces tough questions with cogent answers.

A real leader isn't afraid of questions. A true leader doesn't need to manipulate the narrative. A honest vision can withstand scrutiny. A coward controls and hides from accountability. If you can't deal with the media, how can you deal with a superpower? #cdnpoli

Poilievre will get rid of the CBC and fund agencies like Rebel news. He will completely control the narrative. He's telling us what he will do, and I sure hope people believe him. He would be a disaster for Canada and Canadians

Together we can vote to get Pierre to stop talking about your biological clock. Did you know that your employer has to give you time off to go vote on Election Day? Make a plan, give your boss a heads up, and go vote! #FanjoyVsPoilievre

Canada, we’re all on a plane. The cabin pressure just dropped for reasons we don’t understand. Mark Carney has already put on his oxygen mask and is calmly helping others with theirs. Pierre Poilievre yanked his mask so hard the cord broke and now he’s grabbing a mask from the person in 32B.

To everyone who told me to β€œcalm down” in 2016 - The sociopathic sexual predator business fraud felon you put back in the office he tried to steal just stood in the White House & said that he wants to send American citizens to concentration camps in El Salvador. So, fuck you.

Carney had to step away from his campaign for PM duties, and CBC makes no effort to correct the record. Rosemary Barton. Has got to go! I rely on truth from my public broadcaster. By not setting the record straight, you are lying by ommission. I am deeply offended @cbcombud.bsky.social #cdnpoli

Like many, my sibling and I are both voting Liberal for the first time. We have to keep our elbows up, continue to build momentum, and vote in numbers that will demonstrate that πŸ‡¨πŸ‡¦ will never go the way of the isolationist, racist, immoral, dumb, divisive, flat-earth policies of Trump/Poilievre.

YES! Every vote counts one way or the other. I'm happy to add my FU, Danielle, to yours.

Again, every Alberta vote for a progressive Federal party (please vote strategically) is a big fuck you to Danielle Smith. I only have one vote, but I will cast the hell out of it like it’s 1 million. I want her terrified.
