@andynwoodard @Russty1105 @BleedOilBlue I am in 126 & my finals tickets are $1247, unreal!

@Russty1105 @BleedOilBlue I’m in 212 and mine would be over 10k. I love going to the Oilers but not that much. $544 for a final ticket is taking the piss imho

I know Edmonton Oilers playoff tickets are crazy, but I think the NHL and the Oilers offering weekly payment options for season tickets is a good idea. What you think?

@bigheadhcky Imagine he made Team Canada…

Everyone with more goals than Zach Hyman since 2023/24: • Matthews • Mackinnon • Draisaitl • Reinhart • Kucherov • Pastrnak Imagine if this guy's parents were even MORE rich...

@lyndonkaleb @thackattack41 In a lot of cases those resellers are StubHub & LiveNation which are Ticketmaster subsidiaries. They sell the best tickets to themselves & resell at exorbitant prices. They are a bigger problem than scalpers.

@thackattack41 Wife wanted to go to a Taylor Swift concert, we managed to win the lottery to buy tickets normally but I looked at the tickets in our same section on resellers, our $300 tickets were selling for $10k. Yes TM fees are a problem, but scalpers are still a problem.

Ticketmaster is the issue, not individual sellers. For example, if I want to sell my Round 1 playoff seats & simply recover my cost, I have to sell that $500 seat (my cost) for $550 because TM takes 10%. Then they charge fees to the buyer.....

@fordnation You mean Ticketmaster & all their subsidiaries. They are the thief’s, look at their fees!

We’re putting ticket scalpers on notice: Your days of ripping people off are done.

@banjoguy55 @Matthew_duncan2 Section 126, Row 20

@Gilly601 @Matthew_duncan2 What row/section

The Oilers will price themselves out of most fans at this point in the playoffs. This is season ticket holder pricing

@kurri_jari I always picked him in my playoff pools growing up. Paid off most years.

Brian Propp ended his career with 1,003 points. Most underrated 1,000+ point player of all time? Someone else? Thoughts?

@thackattack41 Haven’t looked at mine yet, can’t wait…

Just got our Oilers Season Seat renewal and playoff ticket option. If you thought playoff tickets were expensive last year..... just wait.....

Soaring unemployment. Global energy crisis. Russian oil fuelling Putin’s war machine. I wonder if there’s anything Canada could do to create hundreds of thousands of high paying jobs, tens of $ billions in government revenue, while providing the world with access to the planet’s third largest energy reserves, from a stable liberal democracy? The world needs more Canadian energy now, and for decades to come. Deregulate now. Put Canadian prosperity and global security ahead of pandering to green-left activists. Get pipelines built at the speed of business. The private sector will take care of the rest.

@thackattack41 @Kgill39 Or the hope diamond, WTF. Way to take the sails out at the start of a broadcast. Dude makes no sense.

OMG Ron McLean, I don't care about Jack Hughes' minor hockey stats.

@sarobertsonca Avi will take the @NDP to zero seats.

LEWIS: "[Carney's] a smart guy and he's very popular in Canada right now because he has a diagnosis about where we are in history. We're at a turning point. But what he wants to do is make us into a militarized petro state, a junior arms dealer on the world stage."

@RockwelderBlack @ABDanielleSmith They teach government approved curriculum….

Teachers have been clear that we must deal with growing class sizes and rising classroom complexity. That is why one of our first actions is deploying 476 new complexity teams across Alberta. Each team is comprised of 1 teacher and 2 educational assistants, to allow for more in class support so every student has a better chance to succeed and teachers can focus on strong, focused teaching.

@FreeAlbertaRob You & your boss know nothing about respect.

Hopefully those who sincerely want Alberta to remain in Canada will soon figure out that respectful dialogue, persuasion and advocacy to remedy the legitimate grievances felt by so many Albertans, is a far better tactic than the demonization and undermining of those who have lost hope in our country. In the end, it is Premier Smith’s ability to listen and fight for these disenfranchised Albertans, while maintaining her position that Alberta should remain in Canada, that will have infinitely more effect in convincing those on the fence, than all the screaming, gaslighting and hyperventilating we hear from folks like Nenshi, Lukaszuk and certain others of that ilk.

@OilBeak My wife has 32 kids in grade 1, averages don’t help her! Exhausted every day, not sure how she does it. Fuck these people, there will be little help for anyone with this new bullshit plan.

Using “averages” is a scam

@JSJamato Forget a complexity team, lots of wasted money. Hired aids for big classes & split what you can. Every school will have classs that need help. Help them!! My wife has 32 kids in grade 1 & she will get nothing. Works in a small school.

More than 400 Alberta schools are getting classroom complexity teams as part of a $143M investment. But as Sean Amato reports, the plan falls about 200 schools short of what the government’s own data says is urgently needed. #ableg #cdnpoli edmonton.citynews.ca/video/2026/02/…

@TheBreakdownAB Yeah right, my wife has 32 kids in grade 1 with little help. Nobody should be put in that situation. Bad learning environment for kids & no chance for a teacher to help the kids succeed. Doubtful there will be meaningful help.

Nicolaides today - “As you can see, class sizes are entirely reasonable on average!” Recommended class averages - “Wait, 30% above our own maximum numbers for K-3 is reasonable now? Boy this just got a lot easier! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Olympics are on. As a snowboard MOM, an appeal (that involves you getting up at 7 am tomorrow). Alpine Snowboard Parallel Giant Slalom (PGS) is under review for removal from future Olympics. The decision is based largely on viewership this Games. If it goes, funding and participation in Canada go with it. But as a winter country, with a thriving snowboarding community, it’s fair to say this sport matters more to Canada than it might to most. My son Luis is on the National Team and I can vouch for the purity of the sport - head to head racing, fast, tactical, emotional and made for underdog moments. Snowboarding in its purist form. Watch tomorrow morning Feb 8 (finals ~7am ET) on CBC / CBC Gem. Cheer on Team Canada: Ben Heldman Arnaud Gaudet Kaylie Buck, and Aurélie Moisan. One screen really does matter. Please watch, stream, and spread the word. @CBCOlympics @bruce_arthur

@Dave_Eby Says the dumbest politician in Canada

You’re on the right path, Mark. Canada must stand on our own two feet. British Columbia has your back. theglobeandmail.com/politics/artic…

@ABDanielleSmith Put Alberta first 🤣, maybe you & your friend Sam. You people are a joke & we see you.

As 2026 begins, Albertans have an opportunity to reflect on the year that has passed and to look ahead with optimism and resolve. 2025 was a year that tested resilience at home and abroad. Despite global economic uncertainty and external pressures, Albertans continued to show determination, ingenuity and pride in our province. Together, we focused on protecting Alberta’s autonomy, strengthening the economy, and creating the conditions for families, workers and businesses to succeed.   In the new year, we will continue to put Alberta first, seize new opportunities, build strong communities and stay focused on what matters to Albertans.   May 2026 be a year of health, hope and prosperity for Alberta families. I wish all Albertans a happy and successful New Year.

.@ABDanielleSmith @demetriosnAB Everyone else in Canada can make it work......but not you......the best you can do is legislate away teachers' Charter rights.
