Danielle Smith is speaking at a $2000 per table fundraiser tonight in Bonnyville. The president of the local UCP association, Mitch Sylvestre, is the CEO of the Alberta Prosperity Project — one of the main separatist groups collecting signatures to trigger a separation referendum.

I'm often asked: What motivates Danielle Smith to do the radical things she does? After all, many of her actions fly in the face of public opinion, the constitution, conservative ideology, and her own public commitments. I used to equivocate. I'm about ready to call it.🧵

What if Elon is the first autistic person RFK has ever actually met and that’s why he assumes we don’t pay taxes or go on dates

Political interference, again. Smith & her government have three bits of kryptonite: ethics, respect for rule of law, and acknowledgement & effective use of expertise. These three things break them hourly. This is the third, that we know of, instance of political interference from Premier Smith.

Does Danielle Smith's behaviour amount to encouraging foreign interference in our elections? One prominent Conservative thinks so.

Boston Globe reports antics of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem at Vermont/Quebec library that sits on Canada-U.S. border. She repeatedly stepped over taped boundary marker in middle of the library, referring to Canada as the "51st State" every time she stood in Canada.

HEY EVERYONE REMEMBER WHEN TRUMP WAS IMPEACHED FOR DENYING AID TO UKRAINE BECAUSE HE WANTED ZELENSKY TO LIE AND SAY BAD THINGS ABOUT BIDEN AND ZELENKSY WOULDN’T DO IT? Maybe literally one fucking American newspapers could mention this in their, “think pieces,” about what happened yesterday.

Trump has based his ENTIRE tariff attack on Canada on the claim that 43 pounds of fentanyl, of the 4,500 that entered the United States last year, came through the northern border. This investigation found that the actual figure is closer to zero www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...

If you're going to get your feelings hurt when disabled people tell you directly but not rudely that what you're doing is hurting them, ask you to use better language, and tell you their support needs (or any other aspects of their disability) aren't your business, you're not a good ally.

Danielle Smith and the UCP have reversed the 1976 Coal Development Policy again, opening some of Alberta’s most beautiful lands to coal exploration and open-pit mining. While the UCP continues to ignore thousands of Albertans, we believe your voice matters: www.albertasfuture.ca/events/coal-...

This is shocking. Stop everything and read this: www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

Would be highly ironic (and very sad) if Premier Smith's unwillingness to meaningfully address homelessness and drug poisoning in her own backyard contributed to the US President's decision to levy tariffs against Canada. #ableg www.theglobeandmail.com/world/articl...

With so much abject capitulation to Trump by rich, scared men, it’s affirming and a high honor to highlight when women have stood up firmly against him this week. My write-up on three such women: https://buff.ly/4avog60

Trump has deployed active military to help round up migrants and put them into detention camps. The military forced us out of our homes at gunpoint in 1942 because we were considered possibly disloyal Americans. They sent us to internment camps for four years. History is repeating. Pay attention.
