MLA Pitt calls the recall "weaponized politics." Accountability is not a weapon. It’s your constituents using the Recall Act you created to hold you responsible for the teachers' strike and ignoring their voice. Yes, she is rattled.🤡

Alberta’s UCP fears it will trigger further youth unemployment if it raises Alberta’s minimum wage, said affordability minister Nathan Neudorf last week.

Older Albertans working at minimum wage might also see their jobs eliminated if the government gets it wrong.

General bookings for COVID-19 vaccines opened — in theory — three weeks ago in Alberta.

I still haven't been able to book any for my children.

Just tried again this morning and got hung up on again by Alberta's 811 HealthLink, with an automated message blaming "higher than expected call volume."

The only way to book COVID vaccines for young children in Alberta is by calling 811 / HealthLink.

Bookings opened Monday.

It’s now Friday and the system is still saying call volumes are too high and auto-hanging-up on callers. 🙃

(They also cost $100 a pop, if you can ever get through.)

Danielle Smith's power comes from convincing Albertans that they have an enemy in Ottawa
If she didn't distract Albertans with her Ottawa-is-to-blame schtick she'd actually have to fix our problems
& fixing our problems would get in the way of her corruption

🏹 The Recall Games Hungar Games are accelerating! The roster grew to 24 UCP MLAs .The reckoning is coming! Bow over hald the #UCP MLAs are in the game. #TotalRecallAlberta #ABleg #Abpoli #RecallThemAll
A political satire-style infographic titled “Recall Them All Alberta” dated November 7, 2025, at 15:51, from “operationtotalrecall.ca.” The image lists multiple Alberta Members of the Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and their recall petition status using three color-coded symbols: green for “Gathering Signatures,” blue for “Initial Paperwork Submitted,” and red for “Targeted.” Each person’s name is inside a rectangular label beneath a headshot or silhouette. Top row: Demetrios Nicolaides, Angela D. Pitt, Dale Nally, R.J. Sigurdson, Nolan B. Dyck, and Muhammad Yaseen — all shown with headshots and labeled as either green or blue status (actively being recalled). Second row: Ric McIver, Rajan Sawhney, Myles McDougall, and Jacqueline Lovely — also shown with blue recall status; followed by red silhouettes labeled Nathan T. Neudorf and Mickey K. Amery, indicating they are targeted. Third row: Red silhouettes for Peter Singh, Nate Glubish, Tanya Fir, Rebecca Schulz, Jason Stephan, and Brandon G. Lunty — all marked as “Targeted.” Fourth row: Red silhouettes for Searle Turton, Adriana LaGrange, Jackie Armstrong-Homeniuk, Danielle Smith, Chantelle De Jonge, and Glenn Van Dijken — also “Targeted.” At the top right corner, a small legend explains the three recall stages with corresponding icons. The note “This meme is political satire style” appears above the legend, indicating that the image is intended humorously or critically, not as an official government communication. The background is white with faint horizontal lines resembling a mugshot wall, reinforcing the parody tone.

By using the notwithstanding clause pre-emptively - which, again, they *can* but *need not* do - the UCP is not simply admitting that their laws are breaching Charter rights and bypassing the courts.

They are further admitting that their laws cannot be justified in a free and democratic society.
