What we need is a long-term steady pipeline of rail and transit investment and renewal so that manufacturing communities aren't caught in cycles of boom and bust. The "Permanent Transit Fund" should have helped but it was diluted in the federal budget.

GET IN THE GAME!

Calgary's recently released budget shows ZERO extra funding to tackle the growing chaos on our streets.

This is simply not acceptable and requires all of us in #yycbike to write letters, and perhaps plan to speak in #yyccc later this month.

Hello Calgary 👋
This is a small snow plow for sidewalks

If your city plows the roads but leaves sidewalks up to property owners, your city hates pedestrians.

Healthcare is a basic human right.

Food is basic human right.

Education, housing, clean air & water are human rights.

Using healthcare and food as leverage should be grounds for removal from office.

SNAP, Medicaid and the ACA are worth fighting for.

People will die without them.

When Calgary calls on UCP to collect on its own the provincial portion of property taxes b/c their increases confuse people to think it’s the City’s action, it’s a hard no…

But when Rocky Mountain House and Mayerthorpe ask the same thing…🤔

Having just come back from a business trip to China, I can completely see how 🇨🇳 has been able to build amazing things in recent years compared to Canada.

🇨🇦 needs to figure out how to get things done. It starts by dismantling the captured economies.

Republicans are so concerned about the shutdown that they all went out of town on vacation.
After shutting down the government, House Republicans went on vacation all this week.

Now they're on vacation ALL NEXT WEEK, TOO. It's absurd.

No one should pretend Republicans care about reopening government or saving your health care.

A report commissioned by Alberta's electric system operator shows big investors' faith in the province as a stable and predictable place to invest "has been significantly undermined in recent years." That's especially true when it comes to renewables. #ableg #cdnpoli

According to Nutlick, we can’t count the 2025 economic numbers against Trump because this is really Biden’s economy until 2026.

Does that mean the mess Biden inherited from Trump and all the bad numbers from 2021 counts towards Trump’s record?

And the 2017 numbers are Obama’s?

Yes, we fucking can.

We can afford Canada Post, we can afford universal healthcare and prescriptions, we can afford free tuition.

You're told we can't "afford it" because industry wants all the money you pay in tax going to them instead, and our politicians keep handing it over.
