The petitioner behind the Dale Nally recall is calling out his MLA, saying he will use the Elections Alberta complaint process to see if Nally breached the Elections Act, while also looking into Premier Smith's comments about his voting record.

Fantastic point of view. They have the chance with their app to bring in more content creators, potentially expanding online and moving away from TSN's stranglehold
What's about to drag CFL down in Canada is it basically it has lost most of its visibility. A newspaper league that had a short resurgence at the end of cable era but now doesn't have have regular beat reporters in most markets and only cable partner is disinterested.

Amazing exchange with Nenshi. Great to ask her that straight on
Nenshi: asked to increase Alberta's allotment of immigrants. How many does premier want? Who is the right kind of immigrant?
Smith: people comes here for jobs. We want taxpayers. Alberta should be able to offer provincial nominee status.
Nenshi: what does the Premier think immigrants are coming

I've sponsored a motion to repeal blanket rezoning -- and committee voted today to send it to full Council. As mayor, I'm committed to addressing blanket rezoning and replacing it with a community-driven approach, to restore certainty and build needed housing to support our growing city. #yyccc

To recap…

Demetrios incorrectly told people he would be authenticating signatures & can’t sign book bans properly…

Tanya Fir couldn’t hang up a phone WITH HELP & called a constituent a “motherfucker”

And they think that calling their competence into question is unfair?

What is the "Corrupt Care" scandal?

Pete Guthrie, who left the UCP over their refusal to call a public inquiry, summed it up impressively today.

And he called out the UCP MLA's and ministers who remain silent on it.

Kingmaker May has a good ring to it
Dimitri Soudas, former Harper comms guy, told RadCan this morning that he's hearing Conservative MP Matt Jeneroux will cross the floor to the Liberals today.

If this happens, the Liberals are one seat short of a majority. You know what that means.

That's right.

Elizabeth May is Kingmaker.

Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

But not impossible.

Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

Fantastic work to your team and volunteers. Great news for AB after yesterday's terrible Bill2
Today, I submitted 456,365 Albertans’ signatures to Elections Alberta, petitioning the Premier to do the right thing, avoid a divisive and economically harmful referendum, and allow MLAs to vote and reaffirm that Alberta’s future is in Canada.🇨🇦

Nenshi and the Alberta NDP have just made what appears to be one of their first campaign promises!

Not only will they never use the notwithstanding clause, they’ll pursue legislation to make sure future governments don’t use it unless as a last resort.

Feel the same way. How can she look at where we were and think this is an improvement
I actually feel kind of bad for any parent who thinks that Danielle Smith's promise to do absolutely nothing will provide their child with a better learning opportunity. I was educated in Alberta public schools but not everyone was so lucky.

Someone forwarded me a "Letter to Alberta Parents and Guardians" that was sent out today from Danielle Smith.

Very sad day in Alberta politics. My heart goes out to all the teachers whose charter rights have been stepped on by the UPC. No one in Alberta should be cheering for anything this government has done

We are at the point where Danielle Smith would rather violate charter rights and create a constitutional crisis…

Instead of paying teachers fairly and giving kids the classrooms they need.

Read that again.

Because this is where we are.

As much as Smith tried today to spin the children’s medication debacle as being the result of former premiers or leadership races or byelections…

It was all her idea.

How do we know?

She said so.
