Why does the whole CPC suddenly talk and act like Donald Trump. The adjectives, turning committees into non-productive partisan sideshows. I liked the Canadian style of politics that included policy books, debates and respect.

Danielle Smith lies. Education spending per student is at a low. The lowest in the country in fact. We're way behind. Exactly what your con gov't wants. Critical thinking? Ability to navigate the 🐂💩? World-class education? All liabilities if you're a con. #abpoi #ableg #abed

One thing lost in the whole interest rate discussion is how much lower Canadian rates are than our global Anglo counterparts. The rise in rates has been painful. It could have been so much worse.
If anyone is planning on going southbound to Banff/Canmore would like to avoid the right wing activists “freedom blockade” on highway 1, consider HWY 1A. A scenic foothills drive along the Bow River. Just set your GPS to go via Ghost Lake.

NEW: Edmonton mayor Amarjeet Sohi has released this statement indicating the Government of Alberta is cutting its funding for the low income transit pass program in both Edmonton and Calgary.
Sure you did. 🙄
In the last two Calgary elections, I saw large numbers of people arriving in vehicles, yet using city utility bills as ID. And now the cities want non-citizen voting. Bill 20 can't come soon enough.
The withdrawal of support for transit subsidy programs makes it clear that Danielle Smith will stop at nothing in her efforts to punish Calgary and Edmonton for returning progressive councils – even if that means less support for those with the least resources. #ableg
It’s amazing to think of the career defining opportunity before Stuart Skinner right now, to backstop this once-in-a-generation group. I think he’s up for it. #oilers #letsgooilers
Conservatives hate poor people. As much as they like creating poverty.
We were informed today that the Government of Alberta is discontinuing funding their portion of the Low Income Transit Pass program in Edmonton and Calgary. Each month, this program is accessed by over 25,000 low-income Edmontonians, Students, and Seniors who require public…
I cry with you @nenshi this program saved me & my kids. I really do believe they are trying to eliminate an entire population and I am going to keep saying that because I can’t come up with any other logical reason that they are doing these things to the seniors & unprivileged
The single most impactful thing we did in 11 years was this pass. I have cried hearing the stories of how it changed the lives of poorer people in our community. And it was cost effective! (for Calgary, 1/20 the price of the Turkish Tylenol, half of the cost of the pension plan…
Fortunately for you, Canadian law doesn’t incarcerate bush league authoritarians. Nobody tried to censor you, Skipper. The speaker politely asked you to withdraw unparliamentary language. Instead you wiithdrew what little dignity you had and played childish word games.
BREAKING: Today the Liberal speaker censored me for describing Trudeau's hard drug policy as wacko. 6 people dying from overdoses every day in BC is wacko. Kids playing next to used syringes is wacko. Nurses worried about breastfeeding after breathing in toxic drug fumes is…
The painful and cruel irony of announcing $9M to facilitate private investment in public transportation, while simultaneously cutting 25000 people off from public transit. You only get nice things if you’re rich! It’s the Alberta Advantage! #AbLeg
@Sean17Henley @friesen_f Yes. That's why she had to bribe Calgary with the arena last time. I'm not sure she has anything to bribe with next time unless its the train to Banff.
Wait…Alberta???? Our Environment Minister Rebecca Schulz is defending clearcutting in kananaskis???? What more can I say?
@AndieYEG You don’t know how much I need this to be true.
Things have spun entirely out of control in Alberta. The healthcare crisis, attacks on higher education and municipalities, power shortages, droughts and fires. But what I feel for the first time in a long time is also that the momentum is shifting. The people have had enough.
I suppose it's too much to expect an "editor-in-chief" to know the difference between using the word "wacko" as an adjective to describe a policy or position vs using it as a pronoun to describe a fellow Parliamentarian. It's not hard, even a grunt like me knows the difference
Posted in loving memory of @echipiuk who continues to fuck around and find out.
Not sure how we missed this... In March, @SPhillipsAB raised the fact that Danielle Smith sto to have been exploiting that she can give away taxpayers money via sole sourced contracts to pals with no rationale required. They used Pension consultations to do it. #abpoli #ableg
PP’s antics today in the HOC and subsequent fundraising emails were more of a blatant setup than a David Staples question at a UCP press conference.
The PM who's a former drama teacher has nothing on Poilievre when it comes to staged theatrics.
Does everyone understand that Pierre Poilievre getting tossed from the House today was all pre-planned as the basis for a fundraising campaign? This was not spontaneous, it was choreographed.
Poverty alleviation costs a lot of money, but you know what's more expensive? Not funding those programs and intervening when issues become emergencies. Can't get to the doctor for care? Medical issue becomes urgent with an ambulance ride to the ER. This seems shortsighted
