Oh the irony of justice minister Amery removing the basic rights of Albertans.
Let him join the long & growing list of suspect UCP justice minister/lawyers: Denis, Madu, Shandro...
Residents of Calgary-Cross are organizing to recall Mickey Amery, the MLA and Minister of Justice who voted to take away rights from Alberta's teachers.

Spread the word!

Danielle Smith uses notwithstanding clause to change pregnancy durations to 12 months, up from 9 to reduce hospital loading.

What the heck does that say for Alberta's UCP MLAs' rapture of their untrustworthy, destructive extreme leader?
5/ These aren’t one-offs but examples of a bigger tension. When parties feel like top-down machines, some MPs choose to walk away rather than stay silent.
We unpack these stories in No “I” in Team — on independents, floor-crossers, and the limits of party loyalty.

Sounds like something Cruella has planned for Alberta, to Hell with methane emissions. @naheednenshi.bsky.social
It got overshadowed by the pipeline news, but NYS’s deal to allow Greenidge Generation to keep operating an upstate gas plant *for the sole purpose of mining bitcoin* might be almost as big of a reversal gothamist.com/news/upstate...
Upstate NY Bitcoin mine agrees to slash emissions, will get air permit from the state
The move comes days after Hochul’s administration paved the way for a new natural gas pipeline in New York Harbor.

Knew it by the familiar stench emanating from the people, corporations involved.
If the $238 million (and possibly more) lawsuit payout of taxpayers money over the idiotic coal mining policy flip flop of this government isn’t enough

Jason Kenney works for the law firm involved…

Typical UCP cult: doesn't recognize actual facts.
“Look, I have no credibility or expertise on any of these issues, but what if I subtly imply any kind of public health reporting is a result of a conspiracy involving big pharma…”

No wonder Dani made “Spanky” the executive director of her Southern office.

Danielle Smith wins this questionable title as queen of measles.
Canada has lost its measles elimination status after more than 25 years

The Public Health Agency of Canada says the country has officially lost its measles elimination status that it had held since 1998.

Condoms prevent pregnancy...er... nope.
FACT CHECK!

When challenged on the difficulty of cleaning bitumen from oceans...

Smith claimed double hull ships prevent spills.

In reality, they decrease the severity of spill when they happen by roughly 62%.

Spills still happen.

Just WHO will call abpremier out on her constant stream of lies?
Several typos here - ..of last year… so how was she surprised… as she says in the clip…. Apologies, sometimes our Premier’s ability to just spew things unattached from facts makes me type too fast.
November 10, 2025 at 12:45 AM
Do not worry. Many drivers have license plate frames that hide her stupid slogan.
Really looking forward to voting her out.

Staples needs to stick with office supplies....
WOW!!

Smith threw her staff under the bus hard today!

In defense of her continuation of the "Alberta is calling" campaign, she claimed that she learned about the federal immigration policies & impacts not from briefings...

But from a tweet.

Abpremier vows "holistic approach" to difficult challenge of class size, composition. WITHOUT TEACHER INPUT. "I refuse to listen to those on the front line". inept. RECALL.

Opportunistic, destruction continues. Unfit to lead. Resign or be recalled.

Everything is just ticketboo. Abpremier twists facts to suit her.
A father called in to ask why his disabled son was getting the $200 clawed back.

Smith's response?

The reason for that subsidy is we lobbied the feds to cost share! Sides, we don't want disabled people moving to Alberta to take advantage of us!

Totally, purposely ignorant of how education systems (& AHS) work. SHEESH.
In a stunning display of "talk with confidence & people will believe you"...

Smith goes from blaming school boards, to saying she might eliminate admin roles, to saying classroom caps don't work to saying she wants to get to caps...

Really.

Anti-vax premier tries to sell expensive, difficult to get vaccines.
Caller - I'm concerned hospitals are going to collapse because vaccines aren't available and healthcare workers could strike...

Smith - Anyone can get the vaccine! (Nope) It's easy! (Also nope) We're following recommendations (More nope) The feds are the worst!

Do Albertans realize that every day she proves that she has NO CLUE, NO EXPERIENCE in managing & running complex organizations? That INCLUDES government too.
Caller - Healthcare is collapsing and privatization doesn't solve anything, what are you going to do?

Smith - Well, healthcare was struggling when there were experts involved, so we've gotten rid of them and feel pretty confident.

Abpremier still destructively fiddling with AHS, she has NO IDEA how to fix it, keeps throwing stuff at the walls to see what sticks. Blames everyone but herself. STOP THIS INSANITY.
