Our Premier aping President Trump again
The powers of AB's legislative assembly & Premier Smith's executive powers are subject to the Constitution
And the courts & not Premier Smith have the last word on what that means
Canada is founded on the supremacy of the rule of law not that of Smith #abpoli
Smith doubled down on her anti court rhetoric today...

She even seemed to suggest that federally appointed judges couldn't render impartial rulings and that she believed her interpretation should always be above theirs.

Doug Ford dumping a bottle of whisky is theatre and won't refill the jobs he's helped drive out of Ontario. My latest op-ed argues that real leadership means making the province competitive again, not posting political stunts. #CDNpoli #ONpoli
ADAMS: Doug Ford's Whiskey Theatre Won't Hide Ontario's Jobs Crisis
A bottle-smashing publicity stunt won't bring back the hundreds of jobs lost under Ford’s watch — nor the competitiveness Ontario has bled since his first majority.

You'd think that with my numerous proclamations about my indigenous heritage, I would be the one posting about Indigenous People's Day.

I can't be bothered. I'll just repost Rajan Sawhney to pay lip service because that's how little I care about the indigenous people of Alberta.

Some say Carney fits the Conservative mold but his record tells a very different story. Here's why that narrative falls apart. #cdnpoli #climateaction
Mark Carney: Misunderstood or Mislabelled?
Lately, I find myself increasingly compelled to push back against the wave of misinformation, disinformation (and let’s be honest) plain old lies that seem to dominate today’s political conversations. If you're interested in a broader take on these growing differences in political narratives, I encourage you to check out a recent blog post I shared on that very topic.

Wildland firefighters have been sounding the alarm for years.

They’re underfunded, understaffed—and now Ford has cut $42 million from Ontario’s firefighting budget for 2025.

And fire season? It’s just begun and Ford is on a 4 month summer break.
