You still up in northern AB or am I mistaken about that?

Also, whatever happened to Patty Ross?

Beaten into submission, a world that’s constantly on fire tends to do that.

Enjoyed hanging out and canvassing with this guy for @waternotcoalab.bsky.social down in sunny Kensington #yyc outside the Plaza/Pages for a few hours this afternoon.

Multiple choice referendums is a means for those in power to avoid responsibility, to not have their name attached to bad legislation in perpetuity, & to avoid accountability under the guise of a mandate from voters.

This post is about Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. Clearly.

Smith says she's cutting access to social support programs because she "heard that people were moving here just to be on social programs."

This sort of hearsay framing is a dangerous rhetorical device employed by populists. Consider Donald Trump. +

Lol, what a boob. So cringy and embarrassing.

I mean, I really hope that doesn't happen (I'd be surprised if this thing lasts very long) but at this point people need to read between the lines on how he speaks and not overreact to his initial comments on issues and events.

“This budget is anti-child, anti-parent & anti-young worker.” — population expert Paul Kershaw on Alberta’s 2026 budget.

He argues the deficit isn’t mainly driven by immigration, but by a failure of the province to plan for baby boomers’ rising health-care costs.

It’s a failure of the province for underfunding services to maintain Alberta’s so-called advantage.

Let’s not pit generations against each other and work on class solidarity instead, shall we?

Wanna know what’s the most disgusting part of ai?

That it’s being forced on us.

Bring them poop brownies.

Twice a day, I drive by the traitorous, separatist goobers hanging out near Meg’s work trying to gather signatures. Mostly, but they just stand alone in the cold by an empty table.

They’re getting to know me because I flip them the bird every time I go by.

Can y’all’s get this stupid whore out of office please?

The Alberta government is taking $461 million more from Calgary property and business owners this year than it did in 2023-24.

That's a 59% increase in just three years.

Celebrating Alberta newcomers March 04, 2026 Media inquiries Nominations are open for the 2026 Alberta Immigrant Impact Awards, recognizing newcomers’ contributions to making the province a better place to call home. Alberta is home to people from cultures and backgrounds that span the world, many of whom have made significant contributions to their communities through excellence in their profession or field. Through charitable work, entrepreneurship, innovation, artistic expression and more, Alberta is strengthened by the immigrants who have chosen to make the province their home. The Alberta Immigrant Impact Awards were created to recognize the achievements and excellence of foreign-born Albertans, regardless of the time they have spent in the province. Albertans are encouraged to nominate immigrant youth, entrepreneurs, academics, artists, athletes, professionals and community builders for an Alberta Immigrant Impact Award in recognition of their accomplishments. “The contributions of immigrants have a vital impact on Alberta’s success and keeping it a welcome place for all. Whether through supporting businesses, driving innovation or volunteering in their communities, it is important to recognize and celebrate the positive impact newcomers have on our province.” Muhammad Yaseen, Associate Minister of Multiculturalism Nominations are evaluated on criteria such as the nominee’s overall contribution, how their actions fulfilled a need and affected others and how they demonstrated leadership and originality when problem-solving. Nominations are open from March 3 until noon on May 12, and an event will be held in fall 2026 to recognize the recipients of the Alberta Immigrant Impact Awards.

This scales new heights of hypocrisy.

Royalty revenues 600% more than what the NDP was getting according to what I've read.

Imagine the NDP in power, and this happening. The "fiscal conservatives" would have their hair on fire. No one would be blaming immigrants. (it's UCP incompetence).

And life become less and less affordable.

UCP is building nothing. Hiring "consultants" no doubt.

They canceled a hospital FFS. One that was ready to go. And now? Check back in the 2030's ..

UCP govt keep playing very expensive games.
Health care purchasing issues (aka #CorruptCare) are big money & questionable ethics. Let's get some answers.
We need a full, independent public inquiry, full subpoena powers & testimony under oath. #Alberta #AbLeg #AHS

No elxn now thx

I remembered we had one that was installed under a cabinet with a build-in metal serrated edge I called the knuckle wrecker because if you did it wrong it shredded the back of your hand. So dumb!

Priapism?

That sums it up in a nutshell.🙄

I doubt I'm allowed to express publicly what I think about vile, despicable, human garbage and pedophile protector Sheila Gunn Reid, as she averts her eyes from the overwhelming evidence of Donald Trump's pedophilia and continues to use the same single photo to suggest Mark Carney rapes children.

ANALYSIS | Danielle Smith says court 'skewed' to Liberal donors, but UCP picks have political ties just as often | CBC News CBC analysis suggests about one-fifth of federally named judges match with Liberal donor lists. About as many judges picked by the province likely gave to UCP.

When Danielle Smith claimed 80% of federally picked judges had donated to Liberals, that was way higher than any figure I'd researched.
I dug into it. Could confidently write here:
"It is not true. The single media source Smith got that fact from has since corrected it."

Rakhi Pancholi takes the lead NDP deputy leader takes centre stage, again, in response to Danielle Smith's nine referendum questions

Rakhi Pancholi is whip-smart and has a ruthless prosecutorial-style that allows her to easily poke holes in UCP talking points. She took centre stage, again, last week as the NDP’s designated hitter to respond to Danielle Smith's nine referendum questions.

Just fuck these people. Crime is way down but we can't feed our narrative of fear to the low information public by acknowledging that.

I hate these people so much.

The UCP are moving ahead with the new provincial police service, "Alberta Sheriffs Police Service (ASPS)".

I miss the old days when I didn’t know the names of the people in charge of US departments, mostly because didn’t give a flying fuck.

America is so fucked.

If CPC MP Jamil Jivani could offer to go down to Mexico and negotiate some sort of settlement with the drug cartels, that would be just ducky.
