Yeah, he was so terrible that they asked him to stay on an extra two years after his initial 5-year mandate expired. 🙄 Pierre Poilievre thinks we’re stupid. #cdnpoli #cdnmedia

Knowing that Dynalife was insolvent, Danielle Smith and UCP paid them $100 million dollars to take it over. Would hate to see supporters go away broke. FFS DynaLife insolvent less than 9... www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Government irresponsibility has consequences. The UCP’s junk science and fearmongering have eroded trust in vaccines—now, measles cases are rising, and kids’ lives are at risk. This is completely preventable. Parents, get your kids vaccinated.

@mark-carney.bsky.social Can we follow suit? Can we trust them in a war given the source code is not available and we depend on the US for upgrades and mission plans?

The UCP is implicated in the worst corruption this province has ever seen: Millions in taxpayer dollars funneled to UCP insiders, political pressure to rig contracts, and a Minister of Health refusing to answer questions. Albertans deserve better. We need answers. Now.

The UCP government has spent millions of dollars storing its stock of expiring Turkish Tylenol and unused personal protection equipment (PPE) purchased from MHCare Medical, adding millions in previously unknown costs to the Corrupt Care scandal.

💸 Millions wasted. ❌No accountability. The UCP spent MILLIONS on unusable PPE from a company with no medical supply history. Now, it’s costing Albertans over $5M in storage fees. Danielle Smith and Adriana LaGrange keep deflecting blame. Demand better: CorruptCare.ca youtube.com/shorts/lfjCq...

“Ontario slapping 25% surcharge on U.S.-bound electricity Monday” We need other provinces to follow. Surcharge on critical minerals and potash until threat of tarrifs are gone. Trump is using threat of tarrif to hurt our economy. We should blow back hard. #elbowsup www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7476515
