Ah, time to play the annual game: Chinook or Spring! #ab #alberta

I, for one, am not reassured by the fact the German extreme right only got 20 percent. The acceptable number of German far-rightists is zero. The 1930s taught us that.

I’ve been researching this topic for a decade We’ve had Canadian and international evidence that for-profit delivery is MORE COSTLY So we can confirm this (again) in Alberta For-profit costs more: investors must profit from our tax dollars

No duhrrr

The minister who called for LaGrange's removal may now be implicated in a separate swindle involving the same players, government documents show. @charlesrusnell.bsky.social broke the latest story in this evolving scandal. thetyee.ca/News/2025/02...

Deal with your pest problem, America.

Currently reading Mark Carney's book, Value(s), and the chapter on the pandemic is already making my little nerd heart sing. Social contract, consent of the governed, and reciprocal responsibility. I can't wait to have this guy as Prime Minister #voteforcarney #lpc #carneyforpm #liberalleadership

“As Premier, I was not involved in any wrongdoing,” she said on February 8, via a social media post. Doesn't matter. As premier, she was RESPONSIBLE for any wrongdoing. Resign, Dani.

I'm all for expanding passenger rail in Canada, especially when we have a steel tariff situation ... but it'd be super cool if such projects weren't being built ON CORRIDORS THAT ALREADY HAVE PASSENGER RAIL SERVICE.

Looks like Bowden, Alberta has a traitor problem. Fuck you, AmericaFund! 🖕🤬

Possibly the single most accurate description of parenting from 1970-89 ever written.

With Donald Trump talking about tariffs and annexing Canada, there seems to be some confusion about patriotism in our country. So I created this helpful graphic to help people of varying levels of intelligence figure out what patriotism actually is. #cdnpoli #abpoli #onpoli #bcpoli

Yes, booing the U.S. national anthem is disrespectful to Americans—but you know what’s worse? The U.S. president repeatedly and publicly telling the world that Canada has no right to exist and should be part of the U.S.🇺🇸🇨🇦

Imagine one of your employees accused another of funneling half a billion of your dollars to their friends. Imagine the accused told you not to worry. They're looking into it for you. That's where we are in Alberta. The premier and her staff are telling taxpayers to let them handle it.

Turns out my interests in dystopia fiction and German History prepared me for this timeline. And my supposed hobbies prepared me for the self sufficiency we'll need to get through it. Who knew?

Whenever you think about how our political/economic system works, remember that our rich af premier tried to get a paramedic fired because he was being critical of her on Twitter. These ppl do not care about the working class. They are not on your side.

Somebody's scared. UCP owes answers to Albertans as do the people they have been doing business with & happy to take millions of public $s. Nate & The Breakdown AB are our neighbours speaking up when they see something wrong happening. Pitch if you can Conservative=Treachery #abpoli #onpoli #cdnpoli

Someone needs to tell Pierre that paying for services is something many (most?) Canadians understand and value. We take care of each other. If anything, we need to do a better job of taxing the rich.

Oh look Albertans, here’s our Prime Minister at the 4Nations game in Montreal. And he isn’t sitting in a SkyBox. He’s in a seat, with his son, like a regular Canadian.
