As kids in schools across Alberta are learning in schools that aren’t properly cleaned because Smith won’t pay a living wage… She’ll be speaking at an org that Wikipedia says “has been accused of promoting fascism, racism, sexism & anti-LGBT politics.” #abpoli #cdnpoli

The polls are closed. Thank you to everyone who joined us on this campaign — and let’s keep building, together.

Just a random reminder that trickle-down economics was invented by conservatives in the 1980s to justify massive tax cuts for the wealthy and corporations… It’s been nothing short of a disaster. ~ Robert Reich

The next Canadian Prime Minister should appoint Trudeau as Ambassador to the United States.

This things just keeps getting worse! The RCMP have now confirmed they’re actively investigating as well. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

A reporter asks Trudeau about Foreign Affairs Minister Melanie Joly’s characterization of the current U.S. situation which she called a "psychodrama." "How would you characterize it?" Trudeau, speaking for a weary nation, “Thursday."

It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!

If you're 60, 69.1% of all job growth since your birth occurred under Democratic administrations. If you're 45, that number is 74.7%. If you're under 30, the number is 100%.

“This is about more than just ownership of buildings; it’s about control. If our public providers no longer directly own the facilities they operate, the government could step in—as we’ve seen with #CorruptCare —& further #privatize our #healthcare w/worse outcomes” www.rmoutlook.com/local-news/a...

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

Justin Trudeau gave the exact kind of press conference today that we have been waiting for from our Democratic leaders. Watch it and learn from it. No gimmicks, no stunts, no script, no platitudes, no slogans, no games. Just straight talk, honesty, sincerity and facts.

And now this…👇 Angry yet?! This. Once. Great. Country. Is. Weeping. ✨

WOW. After yesterday’s Oval Office ambush of President Zelensky, Haltbakk Bunkers, one of Norway’s leading marine fuel providers, announced that it will no longer refuel U.S. Navy vessels, urging other European firms to follow suit. The United States is weaker and more isolated than ever.

JP Morgan’s ‘sustainable’ funds invested £200m in mining giant Glencore

Zelenskyy has huge balls. Doing this all right in front of the press. Honestly the first bit of inspiring media I've seen in a long time.

A guy who used to be a comedian & is good at improv and dealing with hecklers and who has also spent the last 3 years in a war zone turns out to be a guy you can’t out-alpha, imagine that

Pass it on. #StandWithUkraine

I have covered presidential politics for 40 years. This was the most juvenile display by a President and Vice President I have ever seen. Other presidents treated their enemies with more respect. This is a low point and a dark day for the US. Totally embarrassing.

Danielle Smith, isn’t giving Albertans a tax break today, while running a deficit and borrowing money, passing our tax break onto our children and future generations??? Isn’t that what true conservatives always opposed? I know that I did. #ableg

This moment is medieval - Jackson Katz on misogyny and why men must oppose Trumpism

AB, the richest province per capita in Canada. With the lowest minimum wage; a UCP education curriculum so bad, the NWT, that used the AB model for 50 years, switched to BC’s; the least amount of renewable energy incentives in the country; and a government hell bent on destroying public healthcare

Thank you so much! That means a lot to me.

Pierre Poilievre has an easy to look up 20 year House vote record history voting against working families, against workers rights, against fair collective bargaining, against worker safety, wages and against labour unions; for 20 YEARS he has victimized the working class in a form of class warfare.

I almost bought a book on Amazon today, but then I went to eBay and got it slightly used for half the price. Boycotting Amazon is fun AND easy.

A brief history of Canada's "infrastructure deficit" being highlighted as a big problem, with little being done about it: 2024: Alberta Municipalities say budget lacks adequate infrastructure funding edmontonjournal.com/news/politic...

I mean, Trump has always been diametrically opposed to every populist principle he pretends to support, but I guess sometimes it takes releasing an accused rapist and human trafficker from custody for the phoniness to really sink in.

With little operating cash required and no capital dollars needed, councillors said it makes sense to move these applications along swiftly. #yyc #yyccc #calgary #yycplan

A pro-Russia content aggregation network is churning out at least 3 MILLION pieces of propaganda per year, all on sites that are virtually unusable by humans. So what's the goal? We explore the idea that it might be to flood LLMs with pro-Russia content: static1.squarespace.com/static/6612c... 1/

Andrew Tate being allowed to come to the U.S. and avoid facing trial for sex trafficking in Romania is beyond stomach-churning. This man is a HUGE influencer and uses his platform/following to further abuse women who have accused him. Now he won’t face justice, reaffirming his lies to his followers

🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🍁🇨🇦🍁

Well done France! UK next please!

Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau announced that Canada, among other assistance, will transfer to Ukraine the first installment of $5 billion in aid funded through revenues from frozen Russian assets, along with a grant to help Ukraine maintain energy security after Russian attacks

Interesting how all these "pro 51st state" accounts on Xitter are only a few weeks old, feature cartoon profile pics, and handle names are first-name-buncha-numbers. Almost like there's a troll farm somewhere, say ohhhhh I dunno, Russia, helping to drive the narrative here.

This is really smart by @sanders.senate.gov Go to republican districts and push voters to pressure their republican reps. www.commondreams.org/news/bernie-...

"Alberta government ministers are as jumpy as scalded cats, fearful that the health contract scandal has spilled over to their departments." calgaryherald.com/news/alberta...

Good news #ABsolar story. “As one of the first builders in Canada to include 10 solar panels as a standard feature in every home, we are committed to enhancing the quality of life for Albertans today and in the future,” Jayman Homes and Skyfire Power making Alberta a better place.

~Have any info on #UCPCorruption? Carrie has been doing an awesome job of breaking the #CorruptCare story!
