Yup!
When Albertans are struggling to pay bills and Calgary just got listed as the most expensive city in Canada to live in, why do you think this was a priority to the UCP so much so they snuck it in when few people would notice? Sound like Albertans are a priority to the UCP?
Someone has to say it. We should all be saying it. The UCP allowed companies to do this. Now they pretend they are the victim. It’s disgusting.

Follow this thread. It basically points out again how stupid the UCP and Smith are and catching themselves in yet another lie. All to push their ideology … which again punishes Albertans and Alberta businesses.

The fact that someone from the Premier’s office had to call to find out where this costume was stored, then pay an AB Gov employee to get in it, all to try and increase Smith’s likability in Edm and Calg tells us all we need to know about the priorities of Smith. So embarrassing!

Unprecedented population growth, record-low unemployment, the most diversified economy in its 156-year history & a world-beating stock market since 2021 are contributing to what 9 out of 10 economists say will be the best performer among the Group of Seven washingtonpost.com/business/energ…

.@ABDanielleSmith Yesterday, Smith announced formation of a “Council of Losers”, made up of defeated UCP candidates, to advise her on Edmonton issues. Today, she scraps that idea. Junior high student councils are more competent. #AbLeg #Yeg edmontonjournal.com/news/politics/…
It’s cute that @FreeAlbertaRob thinks that a Harper endorsement helps Danielle Smith. Harper isn’t a good standard for conservatives and people, as time has past, are able to see that. Harper has slid more to the right but Smith is even further. More proof of selling your soul.

Hey @PierrePoilievre … even Smith thinks Notley did good by the Alberta energy industry by getting a pipeline to tidewater. These are her words. Your latest post is, as usual, just lying garbage. Is amazing you don’t get sick of your own lies by now. 🤣
I’d be very afraid of Take Back Alberta running this province because they are a politcal organization with extremist ideology.

@Nick_Browett @michaeljanz You are cognizant that if @ABDanielleSmith paid her $60,000,000 arrears to Edmonton, the tax increase would be significantly lower?
@ChefWebber It's a bad situation, but understandable why they'd deploy a chopper. Fleeing police usually means there's a reason. Perhaps the person has a weapon? Or is wanted?
@michaeljanz It’s a sad situation but simply the chopper is already in the air. When someone flees police, there is a reason. Does the individual have a firearm, weapon? Are they wanted? Among other reasons. The chopper can see the heat signature of the person posing less risk to officers.

@DanAlbas “Canada can do nothing by itself to solve it” Wow! Would you have said the same thing about WW1 & WW2?? 😳 #NeverVoteConservative
@DanAlbas That’s a pretty poor schoolyard excuse to not do what you were elected to do. Canada is lagging on the environment and you are becoming the reason. Please get off of twitter and do your job or resign if you aren’t up to the job. You are embarrassing yourself.
@DanAlbas So, you and your party think that Canada is a minor economy with no leadership role in the global economy, that we don’t belong in the G7, at the table with the grownups. Good to know.
@DanAlbas Today’s CPC
There's a letter signed by almost all of Canada's best economists endorsing the carbon tax, but Conservatives like Dan (former CPC critic for climate change!) prefer to listen to this one retired professor. Let's dig into why -- and what it really says about their position.
"If greenhouse gases are a problem, they’re a global problem. Canada can do nothing by itself to solve it. If the Canadian economy were to disappear tomorrow, the increase in emissions from China, which is building two new coal-fired power plants per week, would more than makeup…
First, about the professor. This isn't his first rodeo here.
In his piece about "climate reparations", he suggests that because carbon dioxide helps plants grow we actually deserve to be rewarded for emitting so much of it.
This tired talking point has been debunked, repeatedly. Let's do it again quickly. Receipt here: scientificamerican.com/article/ask-th…
Here's another: Bjorn Lomborg's suggestion (from 2015!) that all policies in the Paris Agreement would “likely reduce global temperature rise about 0.17 degrees Celsius in 2100." Your bullshit detector should be going off here, because this is flagrant nonsense.
The full debunking of Lomborg's various straw men is contained here. It's worth a read. lse.ac.uk/granthaminstit…
Ambler also invokes William Nordhaus's suggestion that 3.5 degrees of warming is "optimal", one that's been shredded by any number of climate scientists and Nobel Prize winning economists like Joseph Stiglitz. theintercept.com/2023/10/29/wil…
But this is the CPC position on climate change: warming might be good, Canada might deserve credit for it, and we shouldn't worry about catastrophic warming or the impact it will have on the rest of the world. That's something we should all be thinking and talking more about.
Booing an elected official is the ugliest version of Calgary I have encountered since moving here. I thought we were better than this. There are better ways to engage in democracy than by being petty and ugly towards people whose job it is to fight for our city. Shame on us.
.@ABDanielleSmith How is that 90 days for fixing Alberta Health is working out? How is firing the AHC board and replacing them with Dr. Lyle Oberg and Dr. John Cowell working out so far? Minister of Health is silent, in a “No Tell Motel”. #ableg globalnews.ca/news/10368716/…
@LukaszukAB @ABDanielleSmith In fairness, @LukaszukAB , “fixing” also means to “put someone or something out of action, especially by destroying them” In this regard, she has more than delivered on her promise to “fix” our health care system many times over. #Ableg
