So, there's a thing going on over at FB where anyone who can't make it to the Edmonton Pink Slip rally is encouraged to download the pink slip image, sign it if you can, and email it to any and all UCP MLAs and Danielle herself on the 22nd.

What the actual eff. Whose pocket is getting lined over this villainy?
Why is the US-based Wild Sheep Foundation being allowed to pay a bounty of up to $7,000 per female cougar on what is a public wildlife resource here in Alberta?
Did you know the quota for female cougars was raised from 24 last winter to 68 this winter .. ?

I’m so upset that Canada seems to be intensifying coal extraction, wrecking our health and home, instead of working toward expanded renewable energy. The rich are extracting everyone’s liveability from the future to make themselves more obscenely wealthy now.
I don't understand how this can happen.
-it's not only against the law from the 2015 coal phase out rule, but the Harper-era max 50 years of life law.
-Makes no sense from a cost perspective (yes, mining coal costs money, unlike what the article says)
-air pollution will kill people
