The raging grannies are at it again protesting for what is right. They know. They are wise. They are trying to protect us. @yegraginggrannies.bsky.social

#ableg #abpoli Gretzky didn’t acknowledge our Canadian bench, didn’t wear anything Canadian, and gave a thumbs up to the USA bench. He’s not deserving of a Drive with his name.

Danielle Smith went to the Vancouver game with tickets gifted to her by an Invest Alberta board member. Somehow, Sam Mraiche and another executive from MHCare ended up there, too. Not in the photo: AHS executives. #ableg #abpoli

Old anxious me will be at #ableg tomorrow at 1pm for the pink slip protest. If you believe in clean water, clean air, public healthcare & education, free press, Trans kids and calling out corruption you should be too.

...Danielle Smith wouldn't intentionally mislead Albertans, would she? #ableg #abhealth

Read this thread and then show up at the protests in #yeg & #yyc today. The Edmonton protest is at 1 at the #ableg I'll be there. You should be there too.

How many federal workers would DOGE need to fire to make up for Musk not paying his fair share of taxes? Answer: 677,000. That's 44% of the entire non-DoD federal workforce. Again, this power grab is not about the budget. It’s about politics.

My message to the Ombudsman: Canada will never be a US state! This is not a question for debate. The mere suggestion by Trump is a violation of international law. It's just stupid, stupid, stupid and I have lost respect for Mr Hanomansing and the CBC itself for even considering this question.

Every time I'm a hospital visitor or patient, I leave feeling so grateful for caring and capable medical professionals and a system that lets people receive treatment without fear of medical debt or bankruptcy. Our health care system is worth saving, Ontario. Please vote accordingly. #OnPoli

It’s about time we got serious about protecting Canadians from the malignant hedge fund billionaires who control the PostMedia empire that is poisoning our #cdnmedia Support @CBC Support independents like @thetyee.ca Demand #ResponsibleJournalism & #NewsWithoutBias

Choose 20 books that have stayed with you or influenced you. One book per day for 20 days, in no particular order. No explanations, no reviews, just covers. I’m cheating a bit. Not posting for 20 consecutive days but I think it’s ok. #booksky #books 4/20

Come to the protest if you can. We have a voice and we need to use it.

So maybe Trump is following Danny’s playbook and not the other way around because she’s always a few steps ahead. Compare what’s happening to The Breakdown to what Pakman is saying in this chilling video. #DarkTimes #SLAPP #ABPoli #ABLeg #CdnPoli youtu.be/i5aleKSQTyM

“The MAGA cancer has been growing within Canada for years, aided by a Conservative Party whose ideology is dominated by American-funded libertarian think tanks that traffic in disinformation.”

One nibble at a time.....

Amanda Zurawski has been named one of TIME magazine’s Women of the Year. Amanda’s Story: Citing the state’s abortion laws, Texas doctors denied Amanda Zurawski emergency medical care when her water broke at only 18 weeks of pregnancy. It was September of 2021, and Amanda was miscarrying. Her…

DOGE = Department of Gross Errors

Canadians on here actually being like "I can't believe how bad things are getting in the US" without acknowledging Alberta just passed some of the harshest anti-LGBTQ+ laws and are about to vote Doug Ford back into power. Wakeup because the far right are in inside the building

Dark skies reflect my sadness at the firings of all the humans that help keep the #GreatLakes as healthy as possible. Tonight I mourn the loss of the 14 @usfws.bsky.social employees that kept the invasive sea lamprey at bay. My fishery will be hurt. 😢😢🌊🌊

How does one resist creeping fascism? By knowing your values and remaining true to them, even when they cross political lines and alliances. Now is not the time for dogmatic tribalism, only for the rejection of rising true authoritarianism, which is easily identifiable by those with eyes to see.

"@duanebratt.bsky.social said the premier’s attempt to reframe the narrative missed the mark by casting blame on AHS for getting in the way of health reform. “This isn’t about reforming. This is about political interference in health-care contracts,”" edmonton.citynews.ca/2025/02/20/a...

Good news #ABsolar story. “As one of the first builders in Canada to include 10 solar panels as a standard feature in every home, we are committed to enhancing the quality of life for Albertans today and in the future,” Jayman Homes and Skyfire Power making Alberta a better place.

On such a tragic day, with so much sadness in the world, it’s the small things that sometimes help. Like this picture. (Photo credit: Hockey Canada) #canada

Are there any law talking folks out there who can provide some context as to why the courts shuttered the Breakdown? Censorship of a small independent agent seems rather heavy handed & ominous. I know you can’t give advice. Could you provide context? bsky.app/profile/dben...

Share if you are are one of the people this doesn’t sit well with.

BDS the US. Canada's boycott of US products. #3E #EndImpunity #EndOligarchy #EndAutoGenocide #BDSUS #CdnPoli

Cole’s notes on the alleged UCP corruption. It just gets darker and darker.

Now, my fellow Canadians, it was only a hockey game. Let’s not be too hard on Premier Trump. 🇨🇦

We're very fair to Canada. But they're not fair to us. We invite them. Come and play in Boston. Beautiful city. Boston, Muskachusetts. The perfect city really. But Canada. Very unfair. We give them two goals. Very fair. But Canada takes more goals. Not very fair, right? Goal tariffs. It's happening.

Don’t sell out Canadian companies to the US 🤬

Based on the science, diversity matters www.nature.com/articles/s43... "...science has established the importance of diversity time and time again."

"How much pressure was there to institute these wide-ranging and drastic changes to wildlife management? Is this just currying favour with the UCP’s rural voting block? Or is it even more nepotistic than that? .. Loewen ... show us the science." www.jasperlocal.com/2025/02/14/a...

I have solved Bird Flu. Give the chickens ivermectin. Have the chickens practice Earthing. The problem with their immune systems is they are not touching the soil enough. Coffee enemas for all chickens. Also we must stop reading them Ibram X. Kendi. Eggs will be back and most importantly not gay.
