“We told you so” -everyone who knocked doors for the NDP n 2023
Has anyone asked what happens if #yyccc passes a “sovereignty bylaw” that gives themselves permission to not comply with provincial laws they don’t like? #goodforthegoose #abpoli
I don’t remember the UCP platform promising to make #yyccc councillor elections partisan, corporate donation backed, and the winners subject to dismissal by provincial cabinet. This is not democracy.
Pretty much what the conversations I’ve been in tonight have said. Well done, candidates. Looking forward to the next debate.

My 84 year old dad, who has never been a member of any political party, just said, ‘Please help me buy an @albertaNDP membership. I want to vote for @nenshi.’ He challenges all Albertans who fear the UCP hijacking their pension to do the same.

Nenshi governed with unwavering honesty and integrity, stood up for human rights and the health and well-being of his constituents, and showed incredible leadership and compassion during times of crisis. Those are all NDP values.

UCP rejecting coverage for birth control is worse than the time 3 weeks ago they vowed to make it harder for teenagers to learn what birth control is. This was not in their mandate.

@RachelNotley My two-bits: A provincial government needs to prioritize health care and education. Having a healthy, educated populace will do more for economic development than all the stimulus packages thrown at private enterprise.
When faced with a difficult decision as a leader, I would ask myself one question. Will this make life better for the future generations? That was my North Star. Be better ancestors.

I’m old enough to remember Danielle Smith as a trustee on CBE. She was so dysfunctional, the entire board had to be dismantled by the provincial government. Perhaps Bill 20 is her idea of ‘pay back time.’

The only party fined by Elections Alberta hundreds of thousands for voter fraud, and the party criminally investigated for same, claims that Albertans need their help in eliminating potential voter fraud. That like asking Epstein to be a chaperone at a girls’ sleepover. #ableg
@gooddayforaday @LukaszukAB @ABDanielleSmith Is voter fraud a big problem in Alberta?
@DrJaredWesley Actually the term authoritarian is too mild. Totalitarian/feudalist more appropriate. These people are dangerous as hell.
Oooo I like this.
Has anyone asked what happens if #yyccc passes a “sovereignty bylaw” that gives themselves permission to not comply with provincial laws they don’t like? #goodforthegoose #abpoli
Danielle Smith’s ultimate revenge on the Kenney Era UCP is forcing them to be the spokespersons for her worst authoritarian policies. Watching @RicMcIver on Bill 20 and @RajanJSaw on Bill 18, I wonder if this was what they believed their political legacy would be.
After watching the @albertaNDP debate last night I think @nenshi is the only one who will make inroads in rural Alberta. Each of the candidates bring a lot to the table, but only one stood out to me, as a rural person, as being able to reach rural voters.
They got played.
All I can think of right now is Calgary city council standing united with Smith while she bribed Calgary with a hockey rink one month before the election. #yyccc
I am grateful for the overwhelming support that brought me to the Alberta NDP leadership debate last night. It was an honour to stand alongside remarkable leaders; I am humbled by the opportunity to stand alongside them & share my vision for a better future. Hiy hiy. Thank you.
If Stephan can become an MLA, anyone can. This dude is not well. Why is he slurring his words? #ableg

@Mitchell_AB Attended the NDP leadership debate in Lethbridge tonight. Nenshi gets my vote because he understands the gravity of the situation. “We’re in a moral crisis in this province.”
Thinking of all the UCP voters I spoke to in 2022 and 2023 that accused me and @abndpcaucus of exaggeration and fear mongering when I warned them about @ABDanielleSmith. May the damage being wrought by this clown car of a government hit them the hardest. #ableg
How long before Danielle Smith decides provincial government elections are irrelevant and appoints herself Premier for life? Dictatorship not democracy. #MakeAlbertaGreatAgain #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
