@miket136 Huh? 🤔

What he’s announcing here is a protection racket, turning the federal government into a mafia to whom companies and provinces need to transfer equity in order to get “regulatory efficiency”. Canada has crossed a lot of lines very quickly here.

@Concern70732755 How is this leadership? 🤔

This is leadership and an exemplary form of democracy!

@JeffreyRWRath Tell me you have no policy depth or understanding without telling me

KENNEY IS A LIBERAL

@jananeli @Alberta_UCP Don’t forget immigrants ☝️

@mzanoni1 @Alberta_UCP Nope. If/when they fail they’ll just blame either the Feds, NDP or woke social justice warriors…

With over 80,000 students arriving in Alberta in just three years alone, mainly due to out-of-control federal immigration policies and record high interprovincial migration, the need for more teachers in our classrooms has never been greater. To tackle this challenge, Education Minister @demetriosnAB announced four new certification pathways to get qualified professionals into the classroom faster. These new certificates will allow final-year education students, internationally trained teachers, tradespeople, and skilled professionals to begin teaching sooner. By expanding the pool of qualified educators, our government is ensuring Alberta students continue to receive world-class instruction.

@RiseOfAlberta @glennbeck Do we have data on how many pets are euthanized in Canada?

This line from @glennbeck should stop every Canadian cold: Canada now euthanizes more people through MAID than shelter pets are put down. Canada’s healthcare system has become a warning to the world about the dangers of socialized medicine.

@Martyupnorth How exactly is our culture unique? 🤔

Reason #26 for Alberta independence: Preserving our distinct culture. While much of Canada shares surface-level traits, Alberta's culture is rooted in our pioneering history, resource independence, individualism, rodeo heritage, fiscal conservatism, and resistance to big government. As woke policies erode traditional values elsewhere in the rest of Canada, we in Alberta have actively pushed back. Separation would let us fully safeguard this unique Western identity, control our resources, set our own social and economic priorities, and avoid subsidizing ideologies we reject. Alberta thriving on its own terms isn't radical—it's self-preservation.

@RiseOfAlberta This is a US bot for sure

CBC told them Alberta Independence means “becoming American” and they have been yelling at blue pickup trucks all afternoon.

@unacceptfringe Huh? You don’t think a political party, who is elected by Albertans, should be involved in the separation of the province from the country?

Why is a federal/provincial party allowed to inject themselves into a citizen driven initiative?

@JeffreyRWRath The federal state? Huh? You are trying way too hard

Whether you agree with Dr. Widdowson or not, this should terrify every Albertan. When the federal state starts arresting people for opinions they disagree with - it is time to vote Alberta out of Canada.

@NickBusch196156 @Bitcoin_Teddy Sorry, I think my comment went over your head. No worries though

@mzanoni1 @Bitcoin_Teddy They are. Obama was sued by the ALCU for not giving due process. Yet you loser leftists never cried 1 time. But now you all of a sudden give a shit? You really expect us to believe that?

Karoline Leavitt leaves the mainstream media speechless, "I would remind everyone in this room that it was former President Barack Hussein Obama who awarded a medal to Mr. Homan!"

@mario4thenorth So weird that you accept anything from the US and tribunals related to trade at face value but then have such a degree of skepticism towards anything Canadian

🚨 BREAKING What the media won’t tell you: Canada has been violating CUSMA since 2021. Trump’s administration was right. We aren’t giving them access to our dairy industry. Liberals drew first blood.

@RiseOfAlberta Tell me you have no idea how equalization works without telling me

Equalization takes money from the paycheques of hard-working Albertans and uses it to buy Liberal votes in Quebec and Eastern Canada. In 2021, over 60% voted to end equalization. But Alberta learned the truth: you can’t vote your way out. The only real way out is independence.

@YukonStrong No methodology, no evidence, no citations, no data. And yet, you are convinced by this. This isn’t evidence-based policy.

Incredible. Danielle Smith reveals the singular most hidden statistic on the the StatsCan Website: TFW workers cost the economy 10x more than they produce. This is why Canada's GDP is in freefall.

@AndrewScheer Yes, the National Post is so biased to the left 😂

Why does the Post just regurgitate Liberal talking points? Th real story here is Liberals are shutting down any attempts at investigating Liberal corruption. I guess because the Post enjoys the Liberal bailouts, they are afraid of criticizing the hand that feeds them.

@jasonjamesbnn Your anecdote makes no sense. You applaud the current Alberta education curriculum as it is right now. But then you go onto applaud a policy that will change the Alberta education curriculum 🤔

A few days ago my daughter came home and told me what they were learning in school. She said her class was divided into two groups and had to debate over certain issues then vote on them. The first issue was a water park. They had to debate over the construction of a water park vs a few smaller projects. They only had enough money in their budget for one or the other. Then after the debate they voted. The water park won (of course). This is in Alberta. She's in third grade. I couldn't believe they were already teaching our children about democracy and how it works. Growing up in Vancouver, we were never taught about anything relating to our system. Most people my age still have no idea how our system works, and that's how BC ends up with successive NDP governments. After she told me about her day we talked about the debate they had over the water park. She said the opposing group were against the water park because a child fell and scraped their knee at another park. That led to a discussion about freedom and personal responsibility. Her eyes lit up when I explained that trading freedom for safety is never a good idea, and that people should be free to make their own choices even with the risks involved. By comparison, when my son was in third grade in Vancouver we had to confront the school about gender propaganda and ask that he be removed whenever it was taught (we only realized it was happening when he came home and told us because he was confused). I have a lot of bones to pick with Danielle Smith, but Alberta's education system is leaps and bounds beyond everyone else just based on these experiences alone. I'm proud to know that Alberta is investing in our children in a way no other province would ever dare to consider.

@MattSpoke @ezralevant Yeah, go figure. The senate and the advisory committee are two different institutions 🤷‍♂️

Erin O'Toole yesterday: "I would never accept a Senate appointment from the Prime Minister." Erin O'Toole today: "I'm honoured to be appointed an advisor to the Prime Minister."

@peteremcc @JSJamato Thanks for the response.

At the time, Nenshi had a block of 7 Councillors who voted with him on almost every issue. That gave him an 8-7 majority on almost everything at Council (and sometimes he was able to get one or two more votes, depending on the issue). Obviously, boundary changes wouldn't help him get re-elected, but they helped his allies on Council. The change he proposed on the floor of the debating chamber was to move one community from one ward to another, and it "just so happened" that that was the community where Sean Chu lived. So Nenshis proposed change would have meant Sean Chu didn't even live in his own ward anymore, but when Sean pointed that out, Nenshi claimed to have no idea where Chu lived.

Hey @JSJamato - Nenshi blatantly lied to you during his press conference yesterday. It's true that his Council sent the boundaries to Calgary's returning officer for changes. But, then, when it came back to Council, he tried to make further amendments ON THE FLOOR of Council.

@Citizen004 In no way have you demonstrated that the conclusions reached by the commission are patently unreasonable. The commission provided a systematic analysis that considered a plethora of variables. The attached screenshots barely scratch the surface.

Duane's position rests on the principle that the Commission is infallible and that the report must be implemented even if the map drawn is patently unreasonable. It ignores the existence of the Chair's addendum — something clearly caused the Chair to include that contradictory statement and the real world implications of the map. To me, the proof is in the pudding. When a Commission draws a map that could result in a government formed by a party holding up to 10% less of the popular vote, it's worth measuring twice. When you see that contradictory addendum penned by the Chair, it's worth asking questions. When a report is released that isn't unanimous and departs from tradition, a review is warranted. And when you see some of the ridings that @peteremcc has highlighted (screen shot), that is all the more concerning. I moved from skepticism to openess once I looked at the whole picture. It's clear to me this Commission failed Albertans. People make mistakes — that's why we have erasers, judicial reviews, and appeals. There is nothing so unfair or unreasonable about embracing the words in the addendum that should provoke extreme claims. Veteran columnist @DonBraid got it right (second screen shot)— the review is worth watching closely, suspicion is warranted, but it's not alarming at this point. Let's see what emerges. Parts of that map need revision — and the minority report isn't acceptable either. What a mess.
