NEW: Danielle Smith banked on her 9 referendum questions being a guaranteed win. She even dumped $4M of taxpayer money into a desperate ad campaign to force her desired outcome. On a special episode of Whatever This Is, @zainvelji.bsky.social explains why the tide is turning #ableg #abpoli #canpoli

TODAY IS VOTING DAY IN ALBERTA. It's time to 5X your vote. It's simple: In addition to making sure you vote, your job today is to track down at least five non-voters in your life who support Canada and ask them to vote "no to the nine". More info: 5x.ca/worksheet

With just five days until Alberta’s referendum, civil-rights lawyer and activist Avnish Nanda asks what kind of province we want to become. Freedom Hour host Liberty Bell responds with exactly the thoughtfulness you’d expect. #satire Full episode here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCqM... #ableg #abpoli

MUST READ: “I'm grandson of an immigrant and thankfully Canada opened up their arms to immigrants and as a result, I'm here,” (former Premier) Stelmach said, in an interview with CBC News. “Otherwise I don't know what would have happened to our family.” #ableg #abpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

They claim temporary residents are "draining healthcare." The truth? They account for just 1.27% of the budget…$342 compared to the $7,200 spent on average Albertans. The system was broken by cuts, not immigrants. Sign the pledge to vote NO: 5x.ca/home #ableg #abpoli #canpoli

In this week’s opinion column, Senator Paula Simons writes about anti-separation Albertans who genuinely believe the best form of protest is to boycott the referendum. While she understands their motives, she warns that staying home will backfire. #ableg #canpoli forwardweekly.ca/simons-cant-...

It's easy to use the Alberta referendum to send a clear message to Danielle Smith. You can reject her entire separatist agenda in just two simple steps: 1. Vote to 'Remain' in Canada and 'No' on all of her 9 questions. 2. Get 5 or more friends to do the same. Join us: 5x.ca #ableg #abpoli #canpoli

Monday, September 21st. A month till Albertans vote on a multiple choice separation ballot AND nine other racist/useless questions. Here’s a behind-the-scenes look at fighting the noxious nine, with @carterab.bsky.social, @jaredwesley.ca & Avnish Nanda of @ouralbertadvantage.bsky.social. #cdnpoli

The strategy is obvious: keep us angry at Immigrants and Ottawa so we ignore the disasters her government is happening right here in Alberta. We are done being played. If we vote en masse to Stay in Canada and No to the Nine, we can send Danielle Smith a message loud and clear. Get started: 5x.ca
Wherein Danielle Smith admits that at least one of the questions in her incredibly costly, incredibly divisive referendum… Won’t accomplish anything and she never expected it to. She just wanted to make a point. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Trump won. Brexit happened. We can’t let apathy hand Alberta to the separatists. By following the 5X plan, we can stop separation, crush the 9 Questions, and defeat Danielle Smith. Get started now at 5x.ca.

What will it take for the Alberta separatists to go away? Experts warn that unless they're handed an "overwhelming loss" in the October referendum, the movement will continue to haunt the province. My latest for @forwardcanada.bsky.social:
