The #CorruptCare scandal deserves a full public inquiry. This isn’t one. Instead of an ethical, competent government, the Premier commissioned this report that will cost Albertans more than $625,000 and designed it to give herself cover from serious allegations. Read my full statement below ⤵️:

Just thought I'd re-up this one. The proposed #UCP tax cut in #Budget2025 will benefit high income tax filers, particularly men, with income over $60,000. Those with income less than $38,000 will see a small to no benefit. #abpoli #ableg policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/ma...

Before you thank Premier Smith for giving you a $750 tax break (a year late), don't forget that her UCP have created a system where private companies have been allowed to gouge you across multiple industries. Your power bills would've been a LOT less @ 8¢/kWh rather than 30¢. #ableg archive.is/chzAJ

UCP's budget offers little for Albertans - it's cuts, chaos, and corruption. #ableg #abpoli #budget #economy

This is beyond the pale. Education Minister of sorts, that is in favour of oil and gas indoctrination in the young. A climate change denier should not be in that position. Of course climate change/anti vax should not be the position of a government. Looking at you UCP.

Oil-bros gonna oil-bro. What upside do they have to stop? We need to elect government with climate policy that pulls demand down. That’s why it’s important to support a plan like Carney’s, which provides consumer financial incentives and investment in clean energy while making polluters pay.

When Mike Myers wore his "Canada Is Not For Sale" t-shirt on SNL, he mouthed a secret code: "elbows up." It's a reference to the great Gordie "Mr. Elbows" Howe who punished those that messed with his team. You heard him Canada: elbows up. If anyone asks why, tell them that Mike Myers sent you.

Premier Legault re: SAAQclic "fiasco:"When there are failures in government, even if it is within a state corporation, in the end it is we who are accountable to the population and we must assume this responsibility."

If I have to live in Wayne's World it will be with a truly great one like Mike Myers. The other Wayne had a chance to stand up for Canada. He chose silence. Mike Myers showed up big time. No hedging, no playing both sides - just a real Canadian standing up for his country.

As the Conservatives blow a 30-point lead in the polls, we remind you that Canada’s mainstream media still chooses not to fact-check Pierre Poilievre. “Poilievre has benefitted immensely from legacy media’s inability to challenge conservative bullies.”

An excellent breakdown of the current coal corruption occurring within the UCP government, led by Brian Jean. Brian is claiming he is attempting to mitigate against $15 billion lawsuits while legal analysts say the Energy Minister is responsible for limit the losses… 1/2 elc.ab.ca/squeezing-di...

“Perhaps the $180 million could be used to supply housing and helping get basic needs met. Studies have shown once housed a person substance use lessens. Perhaps the harm reduction supports could be put back in place until people are ready for help as dead people don’t recover.”

Even UCP MLAs agree - we can't trust Danielle Smith & Adriana LaGrange to tell the whole truth. . You deserve answers. We can't let them investigate themselves. We need a public inquiry. Sign our petition at CorruptCare.ca. #abpoli #CorruptCare

I'm just a girl demanding a full public inquiry into chartered surgical facilities and their contracts. I also want to know how these relationships impact our public system. Full disclosure. If it's all fine, then the UCP should have no problem complying. That's all.

As part of Jason Nixon's efforts to force #AISH recipients back to work, the UCP is proudly announcing a budget cut of $77 million! Just another way we can pick on another minority in the province and make life more difficult for them. #abpoli #ableg www.cochraneeagle.ca/local-news/a...

So "health entities" will sign leases with Alberta Infrastructure "free of charge". But I'm betting that these won't be one page leases. They'll be full of all sorts of terms and conditions & a net increase in red tape! Also betting that we won't get to see them. #ableg #abpoli

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

UCP releases budget w/ 5B+ deficit pointing to the obvious economic challenges we face & that is fair, but does anyone remember when the NDP faced a far more catastrophic economic situation & continued to invest in HC, Edu, the vulnerable & didn't shower friends w/ $$.
