Called the Premier’s office to raise concerns about Smith’s AHS corruption scandals. Her staff said I was wasting their time by calling them daily with concerns. When questioned if I as a citizen had no right to express my concerns he quickly rolled back his comments. I will not 🛑 calling!

It's absolutely already in play. I think that's also why gov is pulling in the catholic hospitals (Covenant). It'll get ugly here fast.

"Even in a worst-case scenario, Trump will not be able to rewrite the Constitution or overturn the constitutional order."

This is looking like it's about to age worse than milk left exposed in the Sahara Desert.

This is why we need Nenshi. And thankfully, we can look down south to see what will happen if we let Danielle Smith continue. Is there a way to get her out earlier than 2027? I mean she has been really trashing our health care system.

Wholesale guardrail removal.
Looking at how much fun the Donald is having steamrolling over democracy.
This is the autocracy manual in large print.

And we ignore those steps at our peril.

It's also interesting to note the removal of ballot counting machines. They were removed because of a conspiracy theory. In actual fact they are 100 percent infallible and non bias. Banks use machines to count cash. Trust me they wouldn't unless they were prefect,
