When the news says “a former Conservative Justice Minister is appealing his santion from the Alberta Law Society,” and you realize there’s at least two people they could be referring to.

I can’t help but wonder if the convoy people are flying the Canadian flag right now.

I don’t believe a blanket, unorganized boycott of US goods will work very well. We all use too many of them. more.

THREAD: When we moved to Alberta in 2002, my first job was working for the two person NDP caucus led by Raj Pannu. He wasn’t young then (70+), he had a thick accent, and an academic’s tendency to want to explain everything when a short quip was better suited for the moment. More…

I can’t believe so many people are wasting time arguing whether Musk gave a fascist salute. Who cares? If you wanna prove the Trump team are fascists, just look at their plan to deport millions of immigrants. THAT’S fascist. And, it actually matters.

People think I’m the dumb one in our relationship, (and they are usually right). But I don’t go running in -27 weather.

I was asked why the UCP are referring to EAs as “part-time” when they work the full school year & 35 hrs/week. My response? Because they’re a-holes. Crude, yes. But they’re trying to make vastly underpaid Albertans struggling to make ends meet the enemy. And they just gave themselves a raise.😡

It’s not Jagmeet Singh’s job to prop up a flailing Liberal government. I’m glad he’s decided to work toward a better alternative. #cdnpoli #ndp

Just a side note about #Lethbridge West. We were all waiting 4 hours+ to get the results in a couple of advance polls. If the UCP handn’t banned the use of vote tabulators, it would have taken about half an hour, and there would still have been a paper back up of the ballots. #ableg #abpoli

The UCP cut the line through a bunch of UCP ridings that will probably decide the next election. #ableg #abpoli

I got about 3,000 Rachel Notley election signs in my garage that I can let you have for the right price.

I write with mixed feelings to announce that today I will be sending a letter to the Speaker of the Alberta Legislative Assembly, advising of my intent to resign my position as the MLA for Edmonton Strathcona, effective December 30, 2024.

CBC Gem has some great content, but the app suuuuuuucks! It constantly glitches out, you reload to try again, watch four ads, and it glitches again. I’m finding it unwatchable. And that makes me sad. Please do better.

Brutal take down of Saskatchewan Premier Scott Moe after he used the two transgendered children of an MLA as a prop in the recent election. #skpoli www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

So Rachel posted on Facebook asking if anyone was paying $1,670/year of less for car insurance. That's what the UCP claim is the 'average' rate. Four hours and almost 800 comments later and there's not much evidence of the UCP telling the truth. #ableg #abpoli www.facebook.com/rachelnotley...

36 years ago today, we elected Ross Harvey in Edmonton East as the first NDP Member of Parliament from Alberta in history. Thanks for the memories, Ross and sorry for the shitty picture! #ThrowbackThursday #CdnPoli #ABPoli

The guy who raised the retirement age to 67 when he was Prime Minister is now in charge of Alberta pension plans? Excuse me if I’m a little uncomfortable with that. #ableg #abpoli
