He's back!
Elections Alberta says @CorbLund has filed a notice of intent on his anti-coal mining petition, meaning he won't be subjected to the increased cost of filing a citizen driven initiative.
He has until Jan 18 to resubmit formal application

I almost (but not really) feel sorry for her. If she loses the votes of the separatists, with the new Progressive Tory Party entering the scene, it seems highly unlikely that the UCP will win the next election.
Moderates to the left of her, jokers to the right — pander harder, Dani 🤷.

It's officially confirmed. Corb Lund's anti-coal petition will have to be resubmitted.
"Citizen initiative petition applications made before December 11, 2025, for which an initiative petition has not been issued are deemed to have never been made."

False choices. Catholic schools are not “options” because they will leave you and your kids out in the cold if it suits them. Same with independents and private. Smith likes privatizing govt services because she can’t handle the responsibility of governing. Libertarians for ya.

Today, we honor the Americans we lost 84 years ago during the tragic attack on Pearl Harbor.
As we reflect on the painful losses of that fateful day, we remember those who defended our nation and the courageous individuals who signed up to serve on battlefields across the globe.

The Premier of Alberta is pushing an American meme about the court system when she says courts shouldn't weigh in on constitutional matters. That's an American idea and look where it's gotten them. The courts job is to remind govt the constitution applies to them to. #cdnpoli #ableg #abpoli
