1. This isn't about doxing, as claimed by Calgary Police & @edmontonpolice.bsky.social before (is this inspired by Dale McFee?). It isn't happening. If it was, there'd be charges of Criminal Harassment. There are none. Prove me wrong. Note how they describe it ... calgaryherald.com/news/calgary...

Premier Smith torched Alberta’s renewable energy future to feed Big Oil dinosaurs. Now oil's under $70—our economic break-even—and the meteor just hit. "The dinosaurs are in charge of Alberta. Pity they’re oblivious to the meteor headed their way." - @markhamhislop.bsky.social #ableg #cdnpoli

The UCP is so anti-science, so anti-vax they muzzle the chief medical officer of health and stop him from providing harm prevention info to the public. And CMOH Dr. Mark Joffe capitulates. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse. 2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report." 3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes." This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

When Child Services and Minister Searle Turton respond to this drastic and hurtful cut as "affecting ONLY 650 children" You can pretty well figure out how much empathy they have for individual vulnerable families and children. Just heartless! #abpoli #ableg #child #youth #services #FireTheUCP
