I know that you’re worried about Alberta separatism. You don’t want to become a 51’st state.
Despite the horrors in Minneapolis, separatists are negotiating with Trump.
#ForeverCanadian movement is preparing to take separatists on. Together, we will stay united🇨🇦

Here, in Alberta, they want you to believe that it’s about independence, not about becoming the 51’st state.

Whether it’s Cdns “shocked” about police brutality or people dying in our ER’s their racism just blinds them. No the RCMP/CSIS will not lift a finger to the premier nor will a non Indigenous voice or Inquiry change health outcomes. Wild you ignored all the solutions Indigenous gave you all.

Painfully ironic to hear Rick Bell describe his dangerous delay in care at the Sheldon Chumir emergency room, after spending years railing against the province’s busiest supervised consumption site in that very building, responsible for thousands of diverted ER visits per year.

Someone called Mark Carney a mediocre white guy. My dudes, I call 99.999% of white dudes in the world that.. but I’m sad to tell you, in the craptastic world of colonialism/capitalism, there is no one better which is why Putin/Trump hate him so much. Anyway, #Treaties #LandBack #UNDRIP

And we won’t know actual fatalities in Alberta for many years it seems — they have now backlogged the Medical Examiner with 3,200 unexamined deaths going back to 2020.
Most of these are younger people of the ages that dominate drug toxicity deaths.

Painful to think that all that disinformation has culminated in the decimation of decriminalization and safe supply — not just in BC but nationally.
Thousands a year still dying, and countless workers’ lives ruined, for Alberta to protect its profitable war on drugs.
