News from me today; Government cuts $500K in funding to Alberta disability organization — this makes it four orgs (serving the same sector) to have their funding be cut since the start of 2025. DM me if you have tips on others. #abpoli www.thecanadianpressnews.ca/politics/gov...

Worth the read! “[Smith] and her husband … bought into, a retirement package in Panama” whose govt “offers a number of incentives for retirees.” “The “libertarian” crowing over a list of “free” government goodies they would get by relocating still makes me smirk.”

This is stunning! Like a child having a temper tantrum, Danielle Smith has released a new statement where she demands that a "Team Canada" approach has to start by giving her everything that she wants! Smith is doing all the dividing for Trump! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

For all the separatists who are salivating at the idea of Alberta becoming the 51st state… Just a reminder. There’s some folks who have the final say in that. And you would have to convince them that THIS time the powers have their best interests in mind. #abpoli #cdnpoli

EAs & support staff are the backbone of schools, yet many haven’t seen a wage increase in yrs. The UCP’s underfunding of schools has left them no choice but to strike. It’s time to stand up for fair wages and proper funding for students in our schools. #AbEd #AbEducation #AbLabour #AbLeg #AbPoli

RFK Jr running U.S. healthcare. What could go wrong? www.cbc.ca/player/play/... SO MUCH! Normalization of anti-science ethos. Erosion of good research. Elevation of bad science. And > deaths. Need that candle in the dark! Can't let it get extinguished. Great chat with Andrea Love on The National
