As a blue collar worker (retired - middle class) I had to google what capital gains tax was & honestly, this is NEVER going to affect me The fact that people are making a big stink of it, is frankly shocking The rich will pay a bit more tax…Good globalnews.ca/news/10427688/…
The UCP’s war on family doctors has undermined our overall healthcare system, and there were no amends made by the gov’t today. We’re in this situation because the UCP changed physician compensation making it nearly impossible for family doctors to keep practicing in AB! #AbLeg
With the UCP’s Bill 18, we risk losing the next big Albertan discovery. It closes the door on innovation and much-needed funding for public programs. Let's keep Alberta a place where freedom, innovation and progress thrive.
"this is a white Christian country", or so they like to tell us. Oy. A conservative future sounds more like Mad Max than a utopia. #NeverVoteConservative
If we don't manage our appetites, Nature will do it for us (and it won't be pretty): "we find that the world economy is committed to an income reduction of 19% within the next 26 years independent of future emission choices." nature.com/articles/s4158… via @Nature
Not that facts matter to Pierre Poulette, but it was Harper who introduced 'Carbon Tax'. It is Trudeau who introduced Carbon Rebates.
Just so we're clear Smith & the UCP are pushing austerity in Alberta's healthcare & services, claiming we need to grow the Heritage Fund If we really want to grow the fund maybe we should tax corporations more than 8% NOT endanger the lives of new borns edmonton.ctvnews.ca/alberta-gov-t-…
The last Conservative PM to actually balance a budget was Sir Robert Borden, Canada's 8th PM, in office from 1911 - 1920. Harper OTOH squandered the $13 billion surplus he inherited from LPC PM Martin, and turned it into a massive deficit. But don't let facts get in the way.

The same NICUs where HCWs were forced by @ABDanielleSmith to administer her viscous Tylenot into neonatal newborns NG tubes, plugging them off, even tho this med was approved for only 2yrs plus? BUT THE @Alberta_UCP ARE SMARTER THAN EVERYONE, RIGHT?

Suggesting that infants be flown out of province to receive the care they need is a declaration of failure by this UCP government. My heart goes out to the families of kids in the NICU who should be celebrating the birth of their child, but who are instead dealing with…
Add so ends any respect I had left. You don’t sell out your entire country, the 40 million people in it and your “liberal values” to join the far right populist trying to eat us from within. We’re lost. apple.news/A4xe-6hXISUeC6…
The single most important thing happening in our country now, and the next most important thing is so far down the scale that it’s nearly invisible, is the consolidation of the various right wing fringe factions under a populist demagogue using an established party as a beard.
Devastating news from CKUA today. As Marc says, @ckuaradio is the "sound of Alberta". They asked the #UCP for relief funding, but CKUA was excluded from the recent budget, after a year of talks with govt. Will the government help preserve this Alberta treasure? #ableg #ABArts

1. Lower corp tax rate by 1/4 2. Cry that revenues are too low, cut funding to social programs and municipalities 3. Municipalities forced to raise property tax to make up for the shortfall and to fund the social programs 4. Accuse them of mismanagement
Mischief over $5,000 for Coutts blockade. Perhaps a new crime should be on the books. Mischief Over $40 Million Per Day.
Nothing says ‘freedom’ like legislating what post secondary institutions are allowed to teach, what people are allowed to think, who is allowed to give money to researchers or to municipalities, and plotting to take peoples’ retirement pensions against their will.
That is invention, far more than scientific research. Research, at its core, is the process of testing tiny isolated parts of a puzzle, figuring out, bit by bit, how simple systems work, and then, how these fit into larger systems. 6/
Harper was in favour of gutting funding for primary research. Beyond not wanting research to show that his policies on the environment desperately needed to change, he felt the only point of research was to produce a product that can be sold. 5/
whatever panel of ideologically pure right-wingers she assembles should be able to have any say on academic research they know nothing about? We have seen this before. Politicians trying to push the idea that all research needs to be commercializable, for example. 4/
how to do their jobs? Does anyone think the premier should be on job-sites giving welders tips? Should she be popping up in dentists' offices explaining why, if they only did things this other way, it would be better in her opinion? So, why the hell does she think she and 3/

Does anyone remember when Canada could actually balance a budget and not have to pay higher taxes, higher prices, and higher inflation? It wasn't like this before Trudeau and it won't be like this after him. Thank you, Jim Flaherty & Stephen Harper. #cdnpoli #Budget2024

This is horrific! When babies start to suffer from a lack of sufficient healthcare we have gone way past the acceptable level.
