Join us tomorrow evening for the latest on Bill 11, the UCP's sneaky private health insurance law in AB. @FOM Chris Gallaway and the Cdn Centre for Policy Alternatives @a_longhurst bring us up to date leading up to our Day of Action, March 16. #cdnpoli healthcoalition.ca/webinar-albert…

Alberta's Bill 11 opens the door to two-tier health care and is the biggest ever threat to our universal public health care. Join @FriendsMedicare on Monday, March 16 at noon to call for federal action to enforce the Canada Health Act!

"Food banks are meant to be a short-term emergency response for people who don’t have access to food, and not a long-term answer to food insecurity." thegatewayonline.ca/2026/02/campus…

BREAKING: U of A operating grant to increase After four years of a flat operating grant, the U of A will receive an additional $13.1 million in funding. thegatewayonline.ca/2026/02/breaki…

Alberta post-secondary institutions now fund 59% of operating expenses from own-source revenue (tuition, fees, and federal transfers). In 2020-21 it was 47%. thegatewayonline.ca/2026/02/breaki…

Always the most telling graph in the #abbudget. Alberta could go from the projected $9.4 billion deficit to a $7 billion surplus and STILL be the lowest-taxed province in Canada.

"Never mind that in 2022 the UCP government started an 'Alberta is Calling' program to attract people to the province, or that in 2023 Smith talked of doubling Alberta's population by 2050, or that in 2024 she wrote to Trudeau asking for more immigrants." thestar.com/opinion/contri…
