The first time an Alberta government invoked the notwithstanding clause, public outrage forced a reversal in less than 24 hours. I wish to God Albertans would show the same moral fury now, when school children are outed & bullied by the government that is supposed to protect them. #ableg #abpoli

There are 200+ independent candidates now registered for the byelection in Battle River-Crowfoot where Conservative Leader Pierre Poilievre is running.
So Elections Canada has now decided to just have people write in the name of the person they want to vote for, instead of marking an 'X' on a list.

Reports like this are designed to help all involved and those studying the tragedy learn how things can be improved next time and what worked well.

Instead of making this about you, Premier, learn what can be done differently next time.

With how divisive politics has become in recent years, it is important to find ways to bridge the growing divides and have constructive political conversations.
