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 ⤵️:

We must insist that our Canadian government fully supports the European effort to back Ukraine. Furthermore, we must encourage our government to enter into closer ties with the European Union. #cdnpoli

The world has witnessed the most disgraceful political tantrum of all time. Trump is not the leader of the "free world." He is convicted felon who doesn't deserve to be in the same room as President Zelenskyy. There is no going along to get along with this thug. Canada needs to stand with Ukraine.

Lots of "Very Serious People" don't want to admit what is plain and obvious and in front of our eyes and explains so much: Donald Trump and Elon Musk are two of the most ignorant and uninformed people to ever be allowed near public office anywhere in the western world. It's obvious to all of us.

“A reminder to believe nothing you see or hear on CBC.” Because if you did, they’d keep the power to hold Pierre to account for the things he says and does! And god forbid anyone does that!! Chickenshit, autocratic rhetoric from a guy who keeps boosting bootlicker media

If these numbers aren't enough to make EVERY ALBERTAN pause, look them over, and immediately say we need a PUBLIC INQUIRY to understand what's going on here, I don't know what will. Some points to consider a 🧵 : 1/7

Price comparisons of surgeries done at private facilities vs AHS costs, courtesy of the new documents obtained by the Globe and Mail. Given what has been going on within the public health care system, especially the ongoing closures in rural Alberta, this data is horrifying.

I looked into the room to see him pacing around the bed, guarding her. She was pale, and if not for the monitors I would have been worried she wasn’t breathing. My colleague had admitted her to the ICU in the early hours of the day. “He’s adamant we do everything.”

So a reminder: It’s not ‘liberals’ saying Hegseth abuses women. It’s his mom. It’s not ‘liberals’ comparing Trump to Hitler. It’s his vice-president. It’s not ‘liberals’ calling Musk a liar and a racist. It’s his own child. For the record.
