On vandalized pro-Canada signs, I would see open homophobia, transphobia and racist slogans. It says a lot about the attitudes being perpetuated within the separatist campaign ... we are not the same. Then there is this: www.thewatchdog.ca/on-eve-of-al... #abpoli #cdnpoli

I've never met him, but when this is over @lukaszukab.bsky.social should be nominated for the Order of Canada. The guy has seriously stepped up. #Canada #abpoli #ForeverCanadian

"Two American litigation funders allege... Jeffrey Rath and his firm made “false, inaccurate, and misleading” representations to keep receiving millions of dollars to finance two First Nations lawsuits against Ottawa – even after his firm had been fired and replaced." globalnews.ca/news/1209127...

Yes. Dan Williams, Jason Nixon, Adriana LaGrange, Nicolaides, Nate Horner and Mike Ellis and their ministerial staffers too (Blackett, A. Singh, Brattinga, Prisco, McAllister) just to mention some. It's quite the swamp. #corruptCore #corruptCare #ableg #abpoli #corruptUCP #TakeBackAlbertaIsACult
If you watch one clip this week, this should be it. According to Peter Guthrie, Danielle Smith's Executive DIrector Rob Anderson & her Justice Minister Mickey Amery weren't just bystanders on the "CorruptCare" Scandal. They were active participants at the heart of it. #abpoli

More reasons to get out and vote on October 19! #abpoli #ableg
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.
The first to read comes from the Globe and Mail, and talks about connections between US GOP organizers and the Alberta separatists: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic... If you don't have access to the G&M, here's the archive link: archive.ph/rhGUj. /2
The second article comes from The Tyee: thetyee.ca/News/2026/09... It chronicles the shady inter-connections between think tanks and other organizations and US financing. /3

The Alberta chapter of the Canadian Bar Association has published an analysis of Premier Smith's nine referendum questions. They find that most of these proposals would invite immediate court challenges, and several of them are not legally clear at all.
We already know who Smith is, Mr. Mason. She is somewhere between a political magpie and a jellyfish - all the spine of a jellyfish, and all the political consistency of a magpie caught in glitter storm. #abpoli
In today’s @theglobeandmail.com, Mr. Mason correctly puts the metaphorical boots to Queen of Stupid Danielle Smith’s contemptible referendum sleight of hand. 🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁🍁
Poilievre can’t do anything without diving into hyper partisan nonsense. The man is utterly incapable of adapting. #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Incredible story of how it appears Moroccan intelligence created a fake journalist who successfully duped numerous Canadian media outlets and in particular, The Western Standard and The Hub.
For those who were wondering « why would someone go to that trouble » in the matter of my unidentified writer. www.turkiyetoday.com/world/exclus...
Ugh - when are these people going to be honest and call themselves the BC Regressive party? Doerksen is just a less mouthy version of the previous leadership - both KLF and her predecessor. #bcpoli
www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... Welp - Anti-Sogi and lukewarm residential school denialism are not really how you form government in BC.. #bcpoli
Oh look - lawyer who loves to lie about Alberta separation getting caught in lying about how he handles client funds ... hmmm ... it's like these separatist leaders are running from their own misdeeds, isn't it? #abpoli
“A court-appointed receiver says Alberta separatist leader Jeffrey Rath’s firm moved $11.5 million from a First Nation trust it controlled to help cover a court-ordered payment it owed to another First Nation client” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli globalnews.ca/news/1207056...

There's a reason 60 years of conservative propaganda in Alberta has taught Albertans to hate unions, despite the fact that most Albertans are blue collar workers #ableg #abpoli
Increase in productivity since 1979: 93% Increase in hourly pay since 1979: 34% Just so happens that ~25% of workers were unionized in 1979. Today? 10%. As unions declined, the super-rich have taken a larger share of wealth generated by labor. We must build back union power.
Speculation: The decision to buy the Gripen has already been made, and the infrastructure is being put in place quietly in the background. We've already committed to the GlobalEye product, this is providing cover. #cdnpoli toronto.citynews.ca/2026/09/01/b...

Canada, understand this clearly: 1) Doctors didn't build publicly funded healthcare. You did 2) Most of you can't afford private, profiteer healthcare 3) Doctors aren't going to fix this. We follow the money, just like you 4) Only the public can save publicly funded healthcare ~Raghu Venugopal MD

I’ve been saying this for a long time. Conservatism in Canada has become a movement focused on anger and grievance, not governance. Alberta’s UCP embodies this, and their federal cousins are sliding down the same hill.
Canada’s conservative brand is on life support — not because it’s old, but because it’s changing. Grievance politics is now the heartbeat, and governance the departing spirit. My take on what that means. #cdnpoli #abpoli #bcpoli womenofabpoli.substack.com/p/the-conser...
The cracks in the #CPC are emerging, and it looks like it's going to be Maple MAGA from the Prairies (old school Reform) versus Ontario MPs who want to get re-elected. My guess: Poilievre's leadership has 6-10 months left in it. #cdnpoli www.ctvnews.ca/politics/art...

I'm shocked! Shocked, I tell you! Who could have predicted that this would happen? This was the point - make a tragic situation worse and then insist that forcing people into treatment is the only solution. It's not intended to do good, it's intended to enrich whoever owns treatment. #abpoli

It was already obvious to most of us, but maybe some of the Calgary Herald's readers will finally realize the whole citizens initiative ballot process is just an exercise in manufacturing consent for the policies and priorities the government already has. #abpoli calgaryherald.com/news/braid-c...
