Here's what happened with CKUA. It was a public funded broadcaster since 1927. King Ralph Klein essentially privatized it in about '97 and put a Tory hack in charge who then gave hundreds of thousands of sleazy sole source contracts to cronies and effectively bled it dry. 1

We're not asking for a special deal from the Premier, just a fair deal. The Deerfoot, Whitemud, and Yellowhead are all provincial highways. All three should get provincial funding yet only the Deerfoot does. Result? 1% tax inc. michaeljanz.ca/springsoba2024

3. little remorse for the assault - lied several times while giving evidence in his own defence. And the Crown believed he turned off the vehicle GSP to conceal his crimes. Then, despite the requirement to hold the disciplinary hearings in public, @edmontonpolice hid key
2. - the force was used on a prone, injured, physically subdued, intoxicated homeless man - after the assault, he & his partner drove the man down into the river valley & left him there, far from any shelters or assistance on a cold December night - expressed very little
1. Ryan O'Mara is still a cop! After a scorching decision by the trial judge who found he: - used excessive force when he violently took the man to the ground and then punched him twice in the head, so hard that the man's head bounced off the sidewalk. cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…

@michaeljanz There are a number of significant reasons why this potential regressive move should Not go forward. Having had time spent (as part of an integrated group) part of 2 separate officers - mind numbing.
There are actually plenty of studies to show that rich people threaten to leave when they’re faced with higher taxes to try to scare governments from implementing them, but then hardly any actually go anywhere once they take effect.
Unpopular opinion… “Tax the rich” and they’ll leave the country, taking their productive investment dollars with them. #Budget2024
The community stepped in and took over CKUA. They also sued all of Klein's cronies and eventually settled. I'm going to donate to CKUA if for no other reason than to help thwart political scumbags from killing an Alberta institution.
Here's what happened with CKUA. It was a public funded broadcaster since 1927. King Ralph Klein essentially privatized it in about '97 and put a Tory hack in charge who then gave hundreds of thousands of sleazy sole source contracts to cronies and effectively bled it dry. 1
On April 17, 2024, CEO Marc Carnes addressed the community with an update about CKUA's future. Achieving this Spring Fundraiser goal of $775,000 is a first step towards raising the $3 million we need by September 30, 2024. For the full video visit ckua.com

Like, FFS Loren: people have $250,000 EVERY YEAR in capital gains that are treated the same as they were before -- and that doesn't include the room they have in their TFSAs and RRSPs. Who's generating $250K *per year* in capital gains on the sale of public market equities?
Municipal property taxes are not designed to pay for emergency medical services (EMS), but due to downloading of this service by the provincial government, the City of Edmonton property-tax supported budget has had to cover these additional expenses. Read more about Edmonton’s…
