TY @Paulatics, for this incredible, compelling essay on the messy, humble & essential work of #pluralism in 🇨🇦. The Alberta separation movemt is hateful, greedy, dangerous & delusional. The legitimacy given to this faction by Smith is deeply damaging. albertaviews.ca/the-case-for-s…

#ICYMI: Calgary Mayor Jeromy Farkas is making it clear he wants the city’s Free Fare Zone to stay and is asking fellow residents to contact their councillors on the issue before it heads to debate at city council next week. calgary.citynews.ca/2026/05/21/cal…

Outgoing Governor General Mary Simon on receiving abusive messages on social media: "It was a surprise, but it was also, I think, a reflection of what is still here. That there is a division in terms of the role Indigenous people are entitled to play as the first inhabitants of this country."

At least one member of the UCP attended a training session on how to use our stolen data. There has been zero moves by this govt to change amendments they instituted to make that theft easier. Now they want a referendum vote. I think we need federal assistance.

Can confirm.

A DANGEROUS TRIFECTA 👇😡👇😡👇😡👇😡👇😡

@ABDanielleSmith Yes let us not kick the can down the road. We should have no referendums but rather have an election on October 19th.

Driving up to Sundre, Alberta this afternoon, seeing lots of farms flying Canadian flags 🇨🇦 #ForeverCanadian

Yes, work with Alberta @MarkJCarney but not with @ABDanielleSmith she has stolen the very institutions that make Canada, Canada. We will pay for HC, no matter how many empty words she wraps it in. She has destabilized our economy. Her priority is @ABDanielleSmith

Reality Check: Leaving Canada means leaving the Canada Pension Plan. Setting up a standalone Alberta Pension Plan risks massive administrative costs. It leaves local seniors exposed to the volatile swings of a single-commodity economy.

Cadbury was founded in Birmingham in 1824. In 2010, it was acquired by an American company. Today, much of the profit from one of England's best-known chocolate brands flows to overseas shareholders. The UK chocolate market is worth over £8 billion a year. If just 10% shifted to English-made producers, that's £800 million supporting businesses, jobs and investment here. We're building MadeInEngland.com to make it easy to find them.

And this notion that the referendum will put the issue of separation to bed and that we’ll be able to “move on” … what is she smoking? Her constant support for and amplification of the separatists has simply emboldened and entrenched them. Just look at the Quebec experience…

She's barely got the ReferenDUMB off the ground that she's trying to change the channel to the next way she wants to defecate all over our Constitution

Hundreds of people in red-and-white clothing waved Canadian flags, cheered as honking cars passed by and sang “O Canada” at a launch event for a campaign aiming to stop Alberta from quitting Confederation. calgary.citynews.ca/2026/05/23/thi…

Waaaahhhhh @DavidStaplesYEG pull up your big boy pants and grow up.

Awww poor baby! The rest of Canada is sick of Alaberta’s whining. #abpoli

Dani lies, cheats, and steals. Time to stand up against her corruption. She is a criminal.

You will create economic devastation while the personal data of 3 million Albertans is now in the hands of foreign influences. Albertans are not stupid. Albertans don’t believe you. Albertans will not forgive you.

And the MLAs who sit quietly, forgetting who employs them, with her. @UCPCaucus

Reality Check: A sovereign Alberta instantly loses access to USMCA (NAFTA) and Canada’s global trade deals.Re-negotiating international trade terms takes years.Major employers in Edmonton and Calgary would face immediate tariff walls and closure.
