Have your say in the provincial government's survey for budget 2026. Make sure they feel compelled to hide the results of this one too. 😅

UCP WASTES $125 MILLION on DynaLife lab services.
UCP lost $1.3 BILLION by buying Keystone XL pipeline.
AIMCo lost $2 BILLION in pension funds after UCP replaced management.

But don't worry, Alberta. You can trust us with your CPP!

Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?

An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

When he says “record education funding” he means in nominal terms — and forgets to mention that nominal funding is almost always at record highs.

On a per-student basis, and after adjusting for inflation? It isn’t even close.
The notwithstanding clause is literally about stripping charter rights that can’t be reasonable suppressed under section 1.

But anyways, Danielle Smith’s left hand guy has some thoughts that he’s comfortable tweeting…

Of course, of COURSE, Danielle Smith blamed Ottawa for Imperial Oil's plan to lay off 20 per cent of its employees by 2027.

When I became a Senator, I started flying a lot. Back and forth from Edmonton to Ottawa - not to mention flights to conferences and events. I had never before understood the archaic way that flight attendants are paid. The clock only starts when the airplane door closes. 🧵

Highest auto insurance premiums in the country. Highest utility rates, too. Slowest rate of wage growth. Fastest increase in rents. But, sure, a tiny decrease in taxes — paid for by underfunding health care, education & municipalities.

Alberta.

Psst…those 1950s manufacturing jobs Trump loves so much?

They were good jobs because they were UNION jobs.

Oh...and taxes on corporations and the rich were much higher.

Trump’s agenda won’t bring back the “Golden Age.”

It’ll make the rich richer at everyone else's expense.

I’ll keep howling it until more of you get it:

The AHS contract procurement scandal is the only thing we should be focussed on. Separation is a distraction. It’s all about THIS.

You are not dogs, #ableg. Stop reacting to every UCP “squirrel”.

Maybe someone in Alberta can gimme a timeline on when you all might be willing to accept that everything - EVERYTHING - Danielle Smith is doing right now is about the AHS scandal.

ALL. OF. IT.

Yes, THAT is how bad this scandal is. Accept it & pass it on.

Liberals - do not listen to any messaging that says "Liberals already have it in the bag so Liberal voters needn't bother voting".
Disregard that stuff, it is a voter suppression technique.
