Because the UCP are led by anti-vaxxers they will never tell Albertans where & how to get vaxxed so we have to spread this info ourselves You can get your shots at your pharmacy Flu shots are free Covid is free for some but might be covered by insurance #ableg #abpoli www.alberta.ca/respiratory-...

Alberta, we are in trouble. Regardless of where one might fit on the political spectrum, if accountability and oversight are compromised in favour of insider political connections and mutual back-scratching, then we are not living in a healthy democracy. prairiesexposed.substack.com/p/a-governme...

Buckle up, friends. This is going to be a thread. A thread of thanksgiving, my gratitude for the people of the city and the province I love. The people who stood united to defeat a dark and narrow vision of Alberta's future. The people who stood in defence of Canada. 🧵 #Alberta #Canada #yeg

Albertans are dying because they can't get timely care in emergency rooms. And how has Danielle Smith responded? She's done nothing but waste all of our time and $200 million on a separation referendum we all knew would fail. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Mason: will never understand how we allowed the political agenda in this country – not to mention valuable time and resources – to be hijacked by the Keith Wilsons of the world. Alberta’s separatist leaders aren’t leaders at all. They’re just fighters, as Mr. Wilson said – itching for nothing more.

Alberta: “This entire separatist spectacle, which has dominated our political discourse for almost a year now, has been orchestrated by a few people who can’t believe the attention they have received or the legitimacy bestowed on them by the media and others” www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

Most of the coverage tonight has been a relitigation of Alberta’s grievances. Talking to separatists whining about Trudeau, panelists whining about Trudeau…and nobody ever really trying to introduce facts to their feelings. Pathetic.

You don't have to do this, @cbcradiocanada.bsky.social. It's a choice. They want to defund you. They think you're a propaganda arm of an evil government. You will never win them over by showing them grace when they show absolutely none towards you.

📣 Dear #UCP, The vote today in #Alberta? What a massive, massive, massive waste of resources and taxpayers' money. What a hate-mongering debacle. What a lie-infused polarizing clusterf*ck. Shame. On. You. 😡

I cannot even begin to put into words how much I hate this man. Netanyahu said Palestinians displaced from Tulkarm refugee camp in the occupied West Bank would not be allowed to return, describing the camp as a “terror stronghold” and that the Israeli army would remain in control of the area.

Look we’re not saying you should attend these events and tell Carney you want him to protect Alberta and Canada’s healthcare… (Because that’s one of the best ways to stand up for Canada) But you should. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.forever-canadian.ca/en/rally

David Herle compares Jason Kenney to Dr. Frankenstein: "He literally created this party, conceived of it, created it, built it, And then it wheeled on him and gravely wounded him. And now storms the countryside marauding around doing damage."

DEAR ALBERTA SEPARATION dingbats; Equalization is NOT funded by the provinces, or specifically by 'Alberta.' It's a FEDERAL program from Government of Canada’s general revenues. Ottawa collects this tax revenue IN the provinces, not FROM the provinces; a subtle difference lost on these nitwits.

“A Globe and Mail investigation has found that Republican political operatives were on the ground in Alberta this year to assist the separatist campaign in its bid to leave Canada…” Can we stop both siding this yet? www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

Four former deans of medicine in Alberta have joined a growing chorus of critics asking Ottawa to intervene in the province’s dual-practice health care model, which allows eligible doctors to toggle between the public and private systems. #ableg #abpoli @theglobeandmail.com

Daniel Smith is a flat out baldfaced liar. Her 'vision' for Alberta is truly dystopian and disturbing, based on a racist white nationalist playbook wholly adopted from MAGA JesusLand USA. It is FLAT OUT anti-Canadian. AND every bit as repulsive as the moron AB separatist movement, if not worse.

New ads just dropped - There’s a poll out tomorrow via CBC that apparently shows the UCP down. That’s because Danielle Smith’s catering to separatists is unpopular, and the closer we get to Oct 19, the more people are (rightfully) blaming her for this debacle. No to the Nine.

Ottawa says they don't want a fight with Alberta but you're in one so fight it. The argument is that just gives Smith what she wants but her popularity is tanking here and laying out her crimes and corruption for federal investigation would go a lot further than talking about "real grievances".

STUNNING! Recent alllegations raise serious questions about the involvement of not only Danielle Smith's Executive Director Rob Andersons competence & integrity... It calls into serious question the competence & integrity of Alberta's Justice Minister! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

The ABSOLUTE GALL of Danielle Smith trying to paint the Alberta NDP as poor money managers. The UCP brass are the worst money managers this province has ever seen. They're rolling in money, but year after year, they piss it all away, while Albertans struggle. #ableg #cdnpoli
