UCP MLA in Lethbridge East, Neudorf, tells the local Chamber that coal companies will certainly win their lawsuits and cost Albertans $14-$22B - resulting in a 10-20% tax increase. Why isn't this info coming from Smith or Jean? Valid? lethbridgeherald.com/news/lethbri... #ableg #yql #grassymtn

Hey, #Lethbridge, I'll present at the Library's Main Branch on Tuesday at 6:30 p.m. as part of the Cade Community Lectures. I'll discuss how the Lethbridge Herald & City Hall frame the issue & whether we're prepared for the rise in homelessness resulting from Trump's tariffs. See you there.

Auschwitz was at the end of a long process. It did not start from gas chambers. This hatred was gradually developed by humans. From ideas, words, stereotypes & prejudice through legal exclusion, dehumanization & escalating violence... to systematic and industrial murder. Auschwitz took time.

I laid the wreathe for Canadians murdered by Nazis in the Abbaye d'Ardennes. Our young lie in fields all over Europe. They fought to free others from evil. For Elon Musk to give the fascist salute and say it's time to "get over nazi guilt" - Fuck him. And fuck those who say Canada should bend.

This matters. Not because I think Trump is capable of mercy or empathy towards these vulnerable groups. But because it is a public act of defiance. Contrast that with all these other powerful people in this country signaling nothing but appeasement and obedience.

A great resource for Albertans to understand the policy/ legal framework that’s prevailed over metallurgical coal mining in our Rocky Mountains since 1976. There will be a lot of straight-up lies coming from the UCP on behalf of Australian billionaires. Best to be armed with facts.
