@djclimenhaga.bsky.social: If Alberta Premier Danielle Smith intends to defy an all-party, all-province, national consensus on how to respond to Donald Trump’s tariff threats, she should call a provincial election and get a mandate to do so.

Trudeau and other premiers adopted a united response to Trump’s tariffs. Alberta opted out.

For all the separatists who are salivating at the idea of Alberta becoming the 51st state…

Just a reminder.

There’s some folks who have the final say in that.

And you would have to convince them that THIS time the powers have their best interests in mind.

The UCP continue to harm the most vulnerable in our province.

Minister Nixon and the UCP are claiming that the government “wants resources to be used to connect those living with disabilities to front-line services… which these organizations don't provide.” #abpoli #ableg (1/3)

Disabled Albertans are no strangers to harm caused by shortsighted, incompetent UCP policy.

However, the cruelty in this case is jarring.

Total gov savings of $420k will harm hundreds of people with intellectual disabilities from Lethbridge, Calgary, Edmonton.

No coincidence that the UCP targets cuts in YEG, YYC & Lethbridge. Another example of punishing people who don’t vote for them and targeting our most vulnerable. We’re probably paying more for Stormy Dani to suck up to the orange felon than it would cost to honour these contracts. Deplorable

Did you know that Saipa is based in Lethbridge but provides services to all of Southern Alberta, including Brooks Medicine Hat, which is Danielle Smith's ridding!! If Smith you are in Smith ridding please ask her to reverse the cuts #ableg #abpoli

Truly bizarre how the media stopped talking about how shitty and batshit nuts Hegseth, Kash Patel, RFK Jr and Tulsi were since the shitty, batshit nuts Felon 47 started threatening Canada, Greenland, and the Panama Canal.

STAY FOCUSED. 🤨

when you have anti-DEI proponents openly going after black military officers for recruiting from HBCUs and suing schools for their black and Hispanic enrollment *even after the schools ended any racial preferences* then the only honest label for these people is "segregationist"
I genuinely think we should start calling businesses and schools falling to the anti-DEI movement “segregationists” because they are re-segregating. And earlier rounds of segregationists *also* explained their preferred policy in race-neutral terms (“state’s rights” and “freedom of association”).
