I find myself in awe of @JeromyYYC as of late. Truly, a new found respect for this individual.

@BBCANRyan Beautifully said.

A UCP win validates that hatred of its own citizens can be government policy. Vote today, and repudiate this notion that we aren’t all deserving of basic respect and decency. An NDP government doesn’t have to be forever, but the positive effects of electing one today can be.

There was a time in my life where the thought of voting for the @albertaNDP was antithetical to who I was. Yet now, I will be voting clearly for the party that loudly says that you should not be treated as “lesser than” because of the way you were born. #AlbertaElection

Ok. This is pretty awesome. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

My gosh this story. I can’t get enough of it.

I’m a medical student in Alberta. Not a single one of my classmates are international students. 85% of my class is explicitly comprised of people from Alberta. If there is a doctor shortage, it’s because Alberta trained grads don’t want to work under a morally bankrupt gov.

Real question: when people steal an election sign do they think I’ll walk out my door and forget who to vote for? Do they think my moral compass will be so askew that I’d vote for the UCP?

UCP candidates telling voters they’ll get rid of Danielle Smith after the election is peak UCP entitlement. Alberta voters should decide who their next Premier should be. Not just UCP members. That’s how we ended up with Danielle Smith in the first place. #ableg

@TheBreakdownAB Ya but, buttt @RicMcIver stood at my door telling my hubs (who just came off an ED shift as a med student) and I that ER wait times are down. He saw it on a document he said. The people with literal hands in the fire are wrong because Ric saw a document that said otherwise. 🤡

You should watch this video. And then share it. Extensively. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

@RicMcIver Albeit small, it’s a step. Now what are you going to do about it @RicMcIver. What is you next actionable step. Your “bosses” want to know.

I completely condemn Jennifer Johnsons comments.

I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: you can’t “accidentally” call trans kids pieces of $hit. That’s not a clumsy use of metaphor. That’s you, saying that you think trans kids are not worth respecting. Saying they’re a contaminant. An adult, saying that about kids, to get votes from bigots. And other adults, not daring to speak against it because the central party orders them not to. Because those bigots vote. I hope you’re proud of yourselves. #abvote

Friends. If you consider yourself conservative or have voted Conservative in the past, please listen to what @JeromyYYC said this morning. (You can forward through me!) Calgary Eyeopener May 12, 2023: Nenshi and Farkas cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…

@JanisIrwin @AJYSyyc @ChristinaNDP Hey, that’s our guy! @AJYSyyc I missed him at our door last week so what do I do? Honk at the poor fella to ensure he places a sign on our lawn 😂 I may be a tad unhinged but I’m a good time. Promise.

@AJYSyyc @ChristinaNDP Great pic! Pumped to hit the doors with you again soon, Andrew! 🍊

We are seeing incredible momentum!! 🍊 Albertans are coming together all over this province to build a better future! It's time for change.

I just want to say as someone who has successfully beaten a horrific drug addiction that came within inches of costing me my life.. compulsory recovery is fucking stupid and, well, the dumbest thing we can do. Another 'are you fucking kidding me' Thread from Colman. 🧵

@BBCANRyan @Safimod ...ya, and you I guess. (congrats friend).

@Lindseywitz @Safimod And me! ;)

Its #PositivitiyFriday - Let's change it up. Often we spend time lifting others up, while completely forgetting to lift ourselves too. I want you to tell me something positive about yourself. #MentalHealthMatters #SickNotWeak

@BBCANRyan @Safimod Good things happen to good people!

@Safimod I’m living in a time where I’m in the best place financially that I’ve ever been, and my son is having success in his sporting endeavors. I also have some exciting changes at work that will expand my role at my current company and allow me to more completely use my skill set.

Check it out. The future of medicine, folks!

@EvanTRT @UCalgaryMed @UCalgary This is simply remarkable. Your work and your passion will, without doubt, save lives. Congratulations you three and thank you!

The happy faces of medical students that just found out we've been awarded a social innovation grant from the @UCalgaryMed Indigenous, Local, and Global Health Office, Innovate Calgary, and the @UCalgary Pluralism Initiative! A 🧵about drug policy:

The more we bring mental health issues into the light, the more that others will begin to start their own healing journey. It’s okay not to be okay. #bellletstalk #bellletstalk2023 #mentalhealthsupporters #traumainformedcare #thenewlyintitute #canadianmentalhealth

This brought me to tears this morning. Last night a man experiencing homelessness found his way to our suburban street. He was rummaging through vehicles. We didn't hear anything, but one of my neighbors did. They went out to talk to him, saw he was disoriented and freezing 1/

My dearest friend @BradMacNews speaks from his heart.
