⚠️ RIDING POLLS ALERT ⚠️

We got some polls from Saskatchewan down to the riding level from a A rated pollster. The story here is telling for the state of this election. The fact that the Liberals are threatening Saskatoon is just insane.

#Calgary is in a pedestrian safety crisis.

As of Apr 2, 84 pedestrians have been seriously injured by drivers this year.

That's 40 more than by the same date in 2024, (which was the most dangerous year ever for pedestrians in Calgary).

Inaction here is policy induced manslaughter.

Christina Gray: “The UCP fired everyone who knew about the audit. It looks like burying evidence.”

Firing people (5 more today) and stopping the audit started by the CEO are totally not something you’d do unless you were covering up corruption. Crooks.
