Totally agree but one thing I cling to is that the Trump Regime has also chosen the American people as a foe. Never a good bet.

There’s always the chance Trump is gaming the markets, but this tariff situation is grave nonetheless. Economic policy uncertainty is now at Great Financial Crisis levels.

Canada has the largest Ukrainian population outside of Ukraine & Russia. Almost one third of them live here in Alberta. It’s been 48 hours since the appalling insult to Ukraine by Trump and yet the Premier of Alberta has been silent. Why?

There’s indeed a system that seems to corrupt everyone who’s part of it. It isn’t spelled A-H-S. It’s spelled U-C-P. We can’t trust this Premier, this Health Minister to investigate themselves. Even their former Minister says so. We need a public inquiry now. CorruptCare.ca #ableg

Remember: the televised punishment & humiliation meted out to Zelensky just now could be done to any NATO ally facing similar aggression. The sense of sneering hostility & contempt by Trump & Vance isn’t specific to Ukraine.

"We should have core values, and being against corruption should be one of those, right?" These aren't my words, they belong to a (former) UCP Cabinet Minister. The call is coming from inside the house, but the Premier refuses to pick up the phone. Visit CorruptCare.ca to learn more. #CorruptCare

Stop thinking about government expenditures as a burden of taxpayers, and start thinking about them as our Groupon to prosperity. Strategic government investments pay enormous dividends, reaped by the economy at large.

There was no way this wasn’t going to happen. This is what Putin wanted from Trump. Putin now dictates American foreign policy, while Musk dictates domestic policy. Donald J Trump is a Puppet POTUS. Complete chaos. We’re watching the fall of the modern Roman Empire in real time.

The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy. There is no going along to get along with this thug. Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.

Just so we are clear - the reason why JD Vance has constantly refused to go to Ukraine is because he is a coward. He would NEVER go there and meet with their soldiers or talk with their leaders. Because their courage and integrity would show him for what he is - a sniveling jerk.

In my singular opinion, this isn’t just the worst government scandal I’ve ever seen in this province, I suspect history will prove it to be one of the worst in the country. They’re gonna need to audit every minister’s portfolio, at this point. Something seems terribly awry. 😳 #ableg

DOGE uses the word "fraud" to destroy in at least 6 ways: 1) The bait and switch.
