Working in a pandemic world is just listening to colleagues say “there must be something going around” on a weekly basis for years and trying to decide if you wanna remind them it’s covid or silently scream into the void again.
Will Danielle Smith have to go back to the drawing board with her referendums?

If she insists on wasting more of our tax dollars, I’ll definitely be giving her my opinion on her ridiculous questions. My hope is a lot of us Canadians living in Alberta will give her a very clear directive. Not that I have much hope she’ll listen. #NeverUCP
UCP. Cruelty is the point. 😡
The Alberta Teachers Association has released a statement on their quest for an injunction against Danielle SMith's use of the notwithstanding clause.

Important #ForeverCanadian press conference and announcement tomorrow (Thursday) at La Cité Francophone in Edmonton at 10 am.
Our Forever Canadian movement is ready to fight for Alberta’s future in Canada.

There is nothing funny about this performance. She lies and contorts her face, thinking she’s fooling us. 🎭
We see the lying and the lack of soul. We see a woman who only cares for herself and her power. This isn’t leadership; it’s cruelty. 🙄

But the incompetent UCP is happy to give hundreds of millions to coal companies without a fight.
"Alberta is tightening eligibility requirements for provincial seniors' benefits and tax credits for caregivers as it faces a $9.4-billion budget deficit."
www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...
No doubt it’s in the tens of millions. All so Danielle can appease her radical base.
Scary to be a senior in Alberta these days. Not enough housing or care facilities, a broken health care system, reduced access to life saving vaccines and now less funding for those trying to survive in poverty or willing to care for a frail parent at home. Cruelty is the point with the UCP! 😡
The cruelty is the point for Smith and the UCP! Instead of raising business tax and oil royalties, the UCP plans to balance the budget on the backs of the poor!

A very clear analysis of what’s going on with the UCP in Alberta. Thanks for sharing.
“I’m singled out now due to the colour of my skin but more importantly so many other people are targets for blame! This is really dangerous rhetoric and it’s to cover up for Danielle Smith’s own poor planning and financial mismanagement! Cut the bullshit!”

Danielle Smith lied.
I'm getting tired of reruns.

I think we should get Kiefer out to Alberta on the 29th of May to tell us what he thinks of Smith and the ucp.
"This has never happened in Alberta’s history, and it reflects the profound harm caused by the Premier’s embrace of separatism."
The NDP have released a statement on the Assembly of Treaty Chiefs vote of non-confidence in the UCP.

I agree that the UCP allocation of funds to healthcare and education is simply a bribe to bring the temperature down.
I would also point out that the only reason the UCP are spending on healthcare and education is that there's an election next year
#ableg #abpoli
The Alberta Federation of Labour (AFL) is calling for a provincewide day of protest on May 29, accusing the Smith government of pursuing what it describes as a radical agenda that lacks public support.

If you spend time in the bad place, you’re hearing this claim a lot:
Alberta sends $23B more to Ottawa than it gets back. If we separated, we’d erase the $9B deficit and have a $14B surplus.
It sounds simple. It’s wrong. Here's why. 🧵
As I understand it, they tore apart our previous system that was admired by others, created four silos that don’t talk well to each other and now they are centralizing again? Make it make sense! Do they have any idea of what they are doing? Looks like the UCP are wasting more taxpayer dollars. 😡
So the UCP spends $81M (at least!) to dismantle our centralized health care system, then another $2.3 BILLION to establish yet another agency to re-centralize it?
So much for fiscal responsibility!

Our public health care is in crisis. We need targeted funding to improve capacity & ensure patients can access the care they need.
Instead, the Alberta government keeps funneling money into chaotic restructuring & private profits, while trying to sell it to us as a win for health care.
In today’s @theglobeandmail.com Mr. Coyne nails petulant peewee piffleswipe Pierre Poilievre and Alberta Queen of Stupid Danielle Smith on their cynical pandering to anti-immigrant bigotry.
🇨🇦😒🇨🇦
So…
The UCP is moving procurement, which is the core of the “corrupt care” scandal into…
The premiers office.
Cool.
What could possibly go wrong?
#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Alberta is in need of the same pluralist coalition.
"Danielle Smith's government is acting as an embassy for the worst we've seen from south of the border, and it's time to say no.”
The Assembly of Treaty Chiefs has passed a unanimous vote of non-confidence in the UCP government.
