UCP stole 30% of your Pension Apr. 1, 2020 @Jason34693089

5 years ago

Long Thread The UCP quietly stole Billions from the following pension plans: LAPP/PSPP/SFPP/MEPP. This thread is directed at people who are active in those plans, or have deferred pensions in those plans. To inform as many people as possible, RT's would be greatly appreciated.

@tedmilo100 @ManciniAriana @RachelNotley Nice try - the NDP had nothing to do with this shit show. Total incompetence and fear to make a decision by the UCP. No other way to spin it.

@SaneAlbertan @AngelinaRuther8 Thank goodness that moat Albertans are not nearly as selfish and misinformed as you. 🤦

@SaneAlbertan @AngelinaRuther8 No, the sooner everyone gets vaccinated, the sooner we will see the end of the pandemic. Doing nothing is what we did in the fourth wave - you know, where all those people died and all those cancer surgeries were cancelled. Try to keep up man.

Ridiculous. Suspending scientists and medics who've played a vital role in public messaging for no reason is out of line. Many of us are subject to coordinated attacks for putting out info - the lack of judgement here is appalling. #BringBackJoe @TwitterSupport

Suspending @jvipondmd is an outrage. No one has done more to save lives in Alberta than him. This is coordinated activity and is a massive reason this sector needs regulation and the unmasking of anonymous troll accounts. Anyone have a connection to @TwitterSupport to fix this?

We have a crisis on our hands. The silence of our Calgary MLAs is concerning. No one should be facing a potential 2 hr wait for an ambulance. What is going on here?!!

From the DM’s… Tonight the closest ambulance for an emergency call was 2 and a half hours away and came from Vauxhall. Which also means there were no ambulances to serve any of the communities between Vauxhall and #YYC. Or 2.5 hours in any other direction. #abpoli #abmed

@CappyMiss Site was working earlier today, but I noticed that the Alberta COVID record verification app would not recognize the QR code. Now you can't download the new passport anymore. Can't this government get anything right?? 😡😡😡

if you’re at Thanksgiving and someone says their decision to not get vaccinated doesn’t affect anyone else, cut your slice of pie like this to demonstrate how that is very untrue

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but we’re still in a pandemic. It’s ok if you’re not yet comfortable in crowds. It’s ok if you say no to things. It’s ok if you feel anxious. It’s ok if you need to rest. Your feelings are valid. And don’t let anyone convince you otherwise.

Kids in west Calgary have a 60 min ride to school. The bulk of residents in Lethbridge don’t have a GP. School councils are trying to raise money for Hepa Units. Nurses are devalued daily. Calgary is often in the red with ambulance coverage. And the premier tweets about trucks.

Alberta has ~1.1 million 💉doses in storage. The pharmacists I've spoken to say they've been told to discard doses rather than give 3rd doses to non-eligible people. How many doses are we wasting while we delay further 3rd dose eligibility? Waste doesn't advance equity.

I can't believe this has to be said, but under no circumstances do we EVER try and justify the holocaust. That's not even a discussion. What the hell is going at Alberta Education? Maybe the @HolocaustMuseum wants to comment on this. open.alberta.ca/dataset/9c0865…

At some point, we need to ask why social media amateurs are better at fact-checking than UCP staffers.

@vancouverboomer @DrMunaSaleh An American expat in Vancouver telling a Canadian-born doctor to get out of Canada because she is a woman of colour? And you have the nerve to call Dr. Saleh the racist one? You GTFO lady!
