That's more than 1,100 jobs lost at the CSIRO over the last two years.

"Combined, the staff association estimates that equates to cutting the agency’s size by a third."

This is more cuts to the CSIRO than was attempted by the Abbott government.

Medicare for All would save $450B a year.

Every dollar spent on food stamps generates $1.50-$1.80 in economic activity.

Each dollar going to low-wage workers adds $1.20 to the economy overall.

It’s not about what this country can or can’t afford.

It’s about priorities.

The 2025 fall session of the Alberta legislature will come to be known, infamously, as the Notwithstanding Session.
I hope that it will also give rise to what will be known as the Notwithstanding General Strike.

They are acting outside of Canadian law. I truly hope the feds step in.

Definitely would like to see the feds step in.
So is Mark Carney going to go along with the suspension of human rights by MAGA government in Alberta?
You cant' do nation-building by allowing an autocratic government to suspend the charter rights of citizens.
Just say no Mark.
it's pretty straightforward.

The UCP touts itself as a small, freedom-loving government.

Objectively, using the notwithstanding clause goes against both of those notions.

It is time.
Ok, Alberta! Time for a General Strike. The UCP has gone too far in allowing private healthcare to steal from public health, in its use of the not withstanding clause to curtail rights of the vulnerable, and in its efforts to keep minimum wage below the actual living wage. Stand Up!

As a minister I strongly condemn the odious actions by conservatives in this province.

Invoking the Notwithstanding clause is a curtailment of democracy. But foremost, it advances the American far-right agenda rooted in diminishing trans lives in this province, notably trans youth. #abpoli #ableg
Supported by all UCP members present (36) and independents Pete Guthrie and Scott Sinclair.

Opposed by 35 NDP MLAs.

It’s worth remembering that the UCP aren’t just robbing Albertans of their charter rights…

Amery openly conceded that these laws also violate the Alberta Human Rights Act and the Alberta Bill of Rights.

That the UCP just rewrote.
