Opinion: If the UCP can take away teachers' rights, no one is safe
But Bill 2 does far more than end a strike. It turns fifty-thousand Albertan teachers into second-class citizens.

The #ForeverCanadian initiative is truly grassroots. @lukaszukab.bsky.social & team are working fast and hard to get canvassers (like me!) accredited and post signing locations. Meanwhile, a resourceful canvasser built this to share signing events in Alberta www.forevercanadianpetitionevents.com

Brian Mason never minced his words. Trust me, I know. We sat across the aisle from each other in the House. I still have scars to show.

But when it comes to the #ForeverCanadian petition, he supports.

Brian, thanks for the letter!

This. Well explained and well said. #ForeverCanadian
When it comes to trampling on First Nations’ and patriotic Canadians’ rights, I get a little hot under my collar.

This is what this fight is all about. Join us. Collective petition signatures. We’re in it together.

I'm not sure why the gov't is not reporting these any more.
As a public service I will do so until explicitly told to stop by my bosses. Will keep you in the loop, I promise.

A must read here from Don Braid. Creeping authoritarianism is now galloping in Alberta under Danielle Smith's UCP. calgaryherald.com/opinion/colu...
Braid: Separatism is a ruse; the real battle for autonomy is fought with UCP legislation
Braid: Separatism is a ruse. The Alberta UCP and Premier Danielle Smith are enacting autonomy law by law.

If there is to be a discussion on Canada‘s future, it must be led by loyal Canadians, it must be informed by facts, and be respectful of our citizenship and Treaty rights.

This is why I filed today this document (along with $500 Canadian dollars ) with Elections Alberta.

The Edmonton Oilers are back in the Western Conference Final for the third time in four years.

They are the first Canadian team to make consecutive Conference Finals appearances since the Maple Leafs in 1993-1994, according to the NHL.

The Premier’s “exes” have had enough.

First, it was Guthrie demanding answers on the Premier’s husband’s “lobbying” activities.

Then yesterday, former UCP MLA Scott Sinclair unloaded all the cannons on Danielle Smith.

What. A. Moment.

So many of you are asking how to sign this “Canadian Forever” petition.

Elections Alberta must first validate this petition. It will take few days.

We will be launching a campaign shortly. Stay tuned.

It’s a lot of work, but Canada is worth every bit of it.
