I was listening to the news this morning and heard Smith suggest that there would be another referendum in 2027 about stuff like bike lanes, etc Did anyone else hear this? F*ck me, as long as the UCP are in power we are going to waste all Alberta's money on culture war crap #ableg #abpoli

Just updated this story with a synopsis of the main points ("the short version") at the top. Skim or dig in as you prefer.

Yet again Calgary is going to add remote, disconnected, 100% car dependent suburbs while actively blocking increased density elsewhere. @jeromyyyc.bsky.social owns this fiasco.

These columns by Andrew Nikiforuk and Don Braid are the most scathing indictments of a politician in Alberta that I have ever seen. Resign, Danielle Smith. Resign via @thetyee.ca thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

Alberta Prosperity Project disavows their separatist leaders after they lost the referendum. Up until then, they were fine. Danielle Smith disavows separatists in the UCP party and caucus after they lost the referendum. Up until then, they were fine. No honor among thieves.

If little PP had become PM, we would already be under US control. He and Smith would be fighting to be Quisling in chief.

Just installed 4 Steadyrack wall racks, and they are great. M through XL frames at the same rack height. U-lock on the front wheel through the rack. #yycbike

My statement on Albertans choosing to build a stronger Canada, together:

Alberta seems like they could totally run their own country.

www.theglobeandmail.com/gift/590d5b9.... This is Danielle Smith's dream, along with every single UCP caucus and cabinet member.

As a fun demonstration of some differences between Canadian and American politics, here is a *Democratic* Senator from *California* talking about Canada-US relations and in this thread he suggests Canada should start selling US wine again and shows off about his meeting with Danielle Smith.

Why did I give rise to the #ForeverCanadian movement and why did I bother to drive the Unity Bus more than 30,000 kilometers for 18 months? It’s because you, Canadians, became my chosen family and it’s my way of of saying THANK YOU. #ableg #cdnpoli

With a little bit of wind in their sails in this referendum campaign and Alberta NDP finally remembers how to do politics. They are holding a presser outside the Carney-Smith event today in Red Deer to talk about separatist UCP MLA Jason Stephan, who represents the Red Deer-South riding.

Elon Musk keeps threatening Canada's sovereignty, and Canada's leaders....keep posting on his social media platform? Non-MAGA politicians, journalists, business leaders: give your head a shake and stand up for your country. #cdnpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2026/10/14/o...

A walk out has been organized at a school in Grande Prairie, Alberta, after a social studies teacher made a social media post saying there's no evidence that residential schools were bad or that there was a genocide against Indigenous people.

Danielle Smith, how did your yesterday’s secretive meeting with the separatists and convicted Tamara Lich go? Why weren’t media and Albertans allowed to hear what you said to them? When campaigning for unity, we don’t hide. calgaryherald.com/news/local-n... #ableg #cdnpoli

Should Danielle Smith be able to order your local council to vote to approve rezoning for a massive AI data centre? And threaten to fire your democratically elected mayor if they vote against it? This latest provincial overreach isn't about density. It's about your legal right to a fair hearing.

An organization barring media from covering “the most important free speech event of the year” is chef’s [redacted]

amen @doniveson.bsky.social

GUY WHO THINKS HIS RESTAURANT WILL BE DIFFERENT ON KITCHEN NIGHTMARES

Danielle Smith is a separatist/traitor💩

Nenshi had strong words today about Danielle Smith sending MLA's & Ministers on luxurious trips and vacations on the taxpayers dime while the province heads into a referendum. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Pro-Canada voters: we have identified more than 1.15 million of us across Alberta. Let's make sure every vote counts by getting everyone we know out to the polls. Make your plan to vote today at savecanada.albertandp.ca 🇨🇦

I didn't mince my words. Alberta's anti-immigration referendum questions are racist. They are also a potential disaster for Alberta's economy. Last night, I rose in the Senate to denounce them - and to thank all the thousands of Albertans fighting against them. Please share. #notothenine #cdnpoli

Make no mistake, America is coming for Alberta. This requires a response at the federal, provincial, and community level. Federally, the government must summon the ambassador for an explanation and, absent a complete retraction and apology, expel him. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

At a moment when we need everyone focused on saving Canada, the UCP is letting down Albertans again. The Alberta NDP is putting ALL our focus and resources into saving Canada. What is the UCP doing?

You can tell how politically important the October 19 referendums are to the UCP by the number of cabinet ministers currently on international trips two weeks ahead of the vote.

This is the UCP. Every single member, donor, MLA and voter. If you support the UCP, you are ignorant garbage or a fascist traitor (or both).

They preach "Alberta First" while promising the Americans our water, oil, and land. I joined Edmonton's Mayor Andrew Knack on CBC's Power & Politics to call out the hypocrisy of the Alberta separatist movement. You don’t defend Alberta by putting our province up for sale to the United States.

It strikes me that one separatist’s offer to sell water to US in exchange for state recognition makes vanishingly little sense in Alberta, a land that’s so water scarce, especially within several hundred km of the border.

Treason? Betrayal? Or a nothing burger? The Globe and Mail's Tyler Dawson argues revelations about deeper ties between Alberta separatists and U.S. political players shows that sovereigntists are willing to sell out not just Canada, but Alberta as well. podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/a...

In the wake of The Globe's investigation, a Calgary MP calls for Canada to consider overhauling laws to address the kind of freelance negotiating trips Alberta separatists made to DC: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic... By Grant Robertson, Nathan VanderKlippe, and friend

Whatcha lookin at buddy? Beaver active in broad daylight is unusual for me. Multiple beaver in the colony were crossing a path to harvest an aspen and take it to their cache. I was watching one drag a branch about 10m away when this one came out of the water less than 2m away.

Separtists would sell out Alberta to the Americans, @tylerdawson.bsky.social argues. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti...

We live in the richest province, in one of the most beautiful countries in the world!! and yet the separatists sit here bickering "I don't get enough...waa..waa". Grow up, travel the world, open your eyes. Be a good person, say sorry and be nice to others. This is who we are. We are Canadian!!

Calgary City Council has taken a stand for a strong, united Canada. I joined Rosemary Barton to talk about why Councillor Yule and I brought forward our pro-Canada motion. Calgary has a lot to lose from separation and a lot to gain by sticking together.
