Tomorrow we kick off my mayoral campaign, and I would love if you could join me. We're building a movement for Edmontonians. One for you and your family, not political parties or special interest groups. Lets build an Edmonton we're proud to call HOME. andrewknack.ca/launch-event #yeg #yegcc

Donald Trump increased tariffs to 50% on steel and aluminum, affecting Canadian jobs. Danielle Smith's response? Restocking American booze back on Alberta shelves! She can’t do anything that Trump might not like. She’s a terrible negotiator and can’t or won’t stand up for Canada.

It’s on! 🍋💜 Claire, Adam, and Elizabeth’s 8th annual Awesome Lemonade Stand is open in support of the ALS Society of Alberta. Today from noon to 5 pm in beautiful Highlands on the corner of 62nd Street and Ada Boulevard! Come on down, friends! alssocietyofalberta.akaraisin.com/ui/walktoget...

If you are in a community filled with wildfire smoke, you might want to read this. Or, I suppose, you really might not! The risks of inhaling smoke make for disquieting consideration.

Good dogs!

Big love from my hometown team. Happy Pride, everyone. Also, WE. WANT. THE. CUP. 🫶 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ #Oilers #NHL #yeg

Come for the analysis of public financing of large infrastructure projects and Canadian federalism, stay for Shannon tolerating giggling boys and their inside jokes. @carterab.bsky.social @zainvelji.bsky.social

I’m looking for a woman in an energy related trade to be part of a virtual library panel on generational approaches to energy transition in July. If this is you or someone you know, we can connect via DM or my work email. It’s a limited library budget but we can offer a small honorarium. Thanks!

It is impossible to have a conversation about the UCP’s new book ban without including the topics of child abuse, sexual assault, reproductive health and more. We’re going to do our best to navigate this with some dignity, but tonight’s show definitely could be upsetting. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Here’s the cast of The Princess Bride, talking about the late great Andre the Giant. Sobbing.

Concerns have been raised about the interim report on Premier Smith's #UCP alleged corruption. The report, overseen by her handpicked retired judge, lacks independence. #TakingAlbertaForward #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli 🧵

Some thoughts on the Alberta separatist nirvana and the self-declared separatists in the UCP caucus. youtu.be/1UiGd3nrMVc #ForeverCanadian #ableg #cdnpoli

Vaccines do not cause autism. Period. It’s antivax garbage. #Vaccinate www.mayoclinichealthsystem.org/hometown-hea...

Memo to Alberta's federalists and anti-separatists: stop accepting Danielle Smith's premise that the province has been screwed over by Ottawa. It's time for more facts and fewer feelings. #cdnpoli #abpoli www.nationalobserver.com/2025/05/29/o...

It sure would be nice if Danielle Smith and the UCP were as interested in protecting kids from measles as they are about protecting them from books that they've never even seen or had access to.

Poll finds Albertans' attachment to Canada has grown as support for separatism has hardened. 'The more we talk about separation, the more people are saying that they feel attached to Canada': pollster www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... Find out more at nationalnewswatch.com

This is superb. “There is only one system that has ever truly protected Jews over time, and that is liberalism” “Illiberalism always turns on Jews. There are no significant counterexamples. In the end, authoritarians protect Jews until they don’t.”

An amazing Canadian!

UCP - “Setting up local police forces can be cheaper than using the RCMP!” Also UCP - “That’s why Alberta taxpayers have to cough up an extra $7 million to make it happen!” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Are other Canadian universities doing anything similar? Can we start a list here?

On June 23rd, we can choose better for our province. I'm proud to run as your Alberta NDP candidate to fight for the strong, competent, and ethical leadership that we deserve. Together, let's build a province where #BetterIsPossible. For Edmonton-Strathcona. For Alberta. For all of us.

Norman Kwong is one of only five people to have his name on both the Grey Cup and the Stanley Cup. He helped bring the Atlanta Flames to Calgary. He served as the Lt. Governor of Alberta. He achieved great things throughout his life. This is his story. 🧵1/10

ICONIC CANADIAN BRAND USES CANADIAN CELEBRITY IN VOICEOVER PeaceLoveCanada.ca

Smith’s take over of health, vaccine policy, hospitals, allowing corporate money in politics and purporting to take control of land, infrastructure and municipal funding from Ottawa. This legislative suite is grotesque and kleptocratic. If this sounds extreme, Alberta can now sell hospitals

I may have gotten a little fired up on this political panel, but separate is to do that to me… #ableg #cdnpoli podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/p...
