@NaidooNet @PJ_Bateman @nenshi That never happened.

@PJ_Bateman @nenshi I still remember when the NDP bankrupted our province. Danielle at her worst is still better than the NDP.

Did you hear Danielle Smith wants to privatize your local hospital? She wants to take hospitals away from AHS and hand them over to other people to run. Maybe Covenant Health, maybe someone else. Nobody knows. Remember, the UCP privatized lab services in 2020 and it was a disaster. Endless waits to get an appointment, even longer waits to get results, and doctors sounding the alarm about mistakes in tests. Eventually the UCP had to reverse the whole thing at a massive cost. It was a dangerous and expensive failure, and that’s what Smith wants to try with hospitals. Let me tell you why I'm concerned. The Premier doesn’t understand healthcare, hospitals, or how competition works. She’s barely said a word about her plans for AHS since announcing that she's going to break it up. Instead, we hear these drips and drabs at members-only meetings in the lead-up to Smith’s UCP leadership review. Second, she said she wants a health care system that is ruled by “competition and fear.” This is bizarre, and it’s not going to work. Systems that are based on fear will inevitably collapse and those incentives don’t work in public service delivery. The folks at Covenant Health do amazing work right across the province every day, but we must recognize that Covenant facilities do not offer the full range of healthcare that Albertans expect, particularly in reproductive health and end of life issues. And despite what the Premier said, Covenant has been forced to shutter some of their emergency rooms, just as AHS has, because they have the same problem – a UCP government that is hostile to healthcare professionals. Changing the sign outside doesn’t create new doctors. Even if Tyler Shandro is on the board. Maybe Smith is just musing and saying the first thing that she thinks will please the person she’s talking to. Again. The problem is when you’re Premier, people work to turn your musings into reality. I’m concerned Smith is taking us down a path she hasn’t thought through at all. We need a government that is competent. That is not ideological, that does not make up its plans on the fly to save itself. We need better, and that’s what Alberta’s New Democrats promise.

@ABDanielleSmith Bitch, YOU ARE the dysfunction.

Equalization holds Alberta back and encourages dysfunctional policies that stifle growth in other provinces. The Equalization and Federal Transfer system are broken and must be entirely overhauled.

@ilsLaura @AndrewPresston @Lindsay_Warner @Alberta_UCP @ABDanielleSmith Think for yourself.

@AndrewPresston @Lindsay_Warner @Alberta_UCP @ABDanielleSmith It is under Federal Jurisdiction so thank Trudeau.

Utter devastation in Jasper. The calls of anguish I’m receiving are so difficult. I’m so sorry to tell you all, the next news you will receive out of Jasper is beyond devastating.

@ABDanielleSmith Fuck around, find out. Thanks for everything, bitch!

I am heartbroken to see reports that the wildfire has entered the townsite of Jasper. The safety of everyone is our number one priority, and thankfully the town was evacuated earlier this week. I want to thank all of our firefighters and crews who have been hard at work fighting this fire day and night. The Town of Jasper and Jasper National Park have all hands on deck. Alberta Wildfire is on the ground to supporting them. Our government will have more to say tomorrow, but in the meantime please keep Jasper in your thoughts and your prayers. #JasperStrong #AlbertaStrong

@MrJoKeR604 This feminist firefighter would like to burn this little fuck’s house to the ground.

Keean Bexte truly is the worst Canada has to offer, Jasper is burning and he immediately makes it about Trudeau. Keean probably blames Trudeau for women being repelled by him. Keean probably blames Trudeau for his receding hairline.

@CoastalK8 @MikeHudema It’s in the middle of the boreal forest and Canada is always on fire now thanks to poor forest management and climate change. This will keep happening.

Heart-breaking images coming out from Jasper. A devastating wildfire has engulfed the town of Jasper. The fire, fuelled by fierce winds, has resulted in a wall of flames reaching 300 to 400 feet high, destroying homes and businesses. This isn't normal. #ActOnClimate

@MiamiBeachPD @bramanmotors @BramanAutoMiami This is responsible and prudent. This makes complete sense and all police departments should follow this excellent example. If you can read this with a straight face within context, I have a bridge to sell you.

MBPD and professional staff exemplify the highest standards of dedication and quality policing in our unparalleled commitment to the residents and visitors we serve. We are thrilled to introduce this stunning addition to the MBPD recruitment team—courtesy of @bramanmotors !

@HeresyYyc @IanDJbrown2 @UCPCaucus You’re dumb af.

@IanDJbrown2 @UCPCaucus What amount of taxes do the global scientists think is needed to stop arson?

Good morning Alberta! Well, the sights and sounds of our summers are here again…smoke, fire, drought! I’m going to say it again, it’s anthropogenic climate change driven. This isn’t my evaluation, it’s global climate scientists telling us this. Ffs @UCPCaucus wake up

@KootenayGreg Someone’s been exposed to a lot of lead during her long, long, long, long, long life. I’m glad her fresh, current ideas matter.

*honour, or maybe you’re from South of the border.

@MakisMD @markusoff You’re a dangerous quack.

@markusoff CBC asked for comments from speakers, then failed or refused to publish them in this story. Here is what CBC refused to cover, from my submission. #ableg #abhealth

NEW: Senior UCP organizers are pushing Danielle Smith to change COVID vaccine policy, and party group is hosting speaker event to promote claim vaccines are unsafe, kill children. cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

@nulamoonsnail @JamesVanAllen9 Did it hurt when your brain died?

Update and on the ground footage from @JamesVanAllen9 From #Axethetax Patriot Protest on both sides of the Trans Canada highway near #Calgary #Cochrane #Braggcreek #Kananaskis #Canmore #Exshaw in #Alberta #Canada.

@nulamoonsnail Fuck off. Cochranites care for the planet and understand science.

#AxeTheTax #Calgary #Cochrane round two today sorry for technical difficulties. twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1…

@SaskMLA We left SK because of BS like this. We’re a well educated and very high earning couple. We value teachers. We don’t value people like you and your party colleagues. Say goodbye to our tax dollars :)

While the STF says this isn’t about money, they continue to demand a 23.5% increase. Your Saskatchewan Party Government will continue to address issues around class size and composition, while ensuring that a fair deal for teachers is also a fair deal for Saskatchewan taxpayers.

Excuse me but I don’t think we pay you to make podcasts, @SaskatoonPolice… do we?!

@titanictimmah @cassko @stephen_taylor Is that why you look up to him? That is a low, low bar, dude.

@cassko @stephen_taylor At least Pierre knows what a woman is.

Pierre Poilievre is going to be Canada's next Prime Minister.

In 2022, Ashley was raped outside of her Mississippi home. Her closest abortion provider was in Chicago, a nine-hour drive away. Ashley is 13 years old. Soon she’ll start seventh grade. time.com/6303701/a-rape…

@cityofsaskatoon Cancel the initiative to give residents a choice of garbage bin size. This is currently a big waste of money considering... There is no money.

City Council and Administration will continue working to reduce the projected funding gap at the next Special 2024/2025 Budget Meeting to be held on Tuesday, August 15. Read all the details here: bit.ly/45Gp1Wr.

Hey @cityofsaskatoon, please cancel the initiative to give residents a choice of garbage bin size, which will cost $3.5 million to rollout. This is absolutely NOT responsible spending given the current budget situation.

@DocHDInfinity @PatrickKeschl @ninaturner Theoretically, yeah. In practice, our ERs can fill up with homeless people trying to be admitted to escape sleeping on the streets, especially when it gets dangerously cold (7 mos of the year in my city). When they get kicked out they just go back onto the street 9.9/10 times.

*picture of the American healthcare system* Conservatives:

@hinz_tamara @cityofsaskatoon That would be ideal!

@naykrop @cityofsaskatoon Or maybe we use taxes to make this a more desirable place to live?
