The mass resignation of Alberta Law Foundation staff shows just how egregious the UCP government’s political interference is.
Bill 14 undermines our institutions, puts access to justice at risk, and should be of concern to all Albertans. 3/3

The protesters in Tehran? "Patriots." The protesters in Minneapolis? "Anarchists and professional agitators." The eruption of protests on opposite sides of the planet has brought Trump’s views of democracy and popular dissent into stark relief. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/u...

Someone sent me this video of Trump’s goons in action today in the Twin Cities. The audio is disturbing.

In Trump’s pay-to-play justice system, you can get away with defrauding nursing homes, skirting your taxes, and committing securities fraud. So much for “law and order.” https://youtu.be/NflcWXdV-B0?si=Tj1mzuAdV8zjXEpY

Smith finally said it out loud...

She doesn't believe that government should be providing any services to Albertans, she believes that private companies should be used universally to provide services.

Faith groups should take care of the vulnerable.

Reporter - Is it becoming common practice to use Legislative powers to override the courts?

Amery -Not common practice. We just do it all the time now when we want our way or we want to limit free speech. The courts can still issue rulings. Whatevs.

Assuming every boat Trump and Hegseth blew up contained the amount of drugs they claim, Hernandez was responsible for bringing more drugs into the US than every one of them had combined. By far. And yet, Trump murders 80+ people and counting while pardoning the narco kingpin.

Any political “leader” still selling the obviously false choice between #ClimateAction and “the economy” is just reminding us that they clearly don’t understand either the climate crisis OR the economy.

Or they’re cynically hope that WE don’t understand the difference.

Or both.

Those of you standing in long lines for municipal elections in Alberta today:

1) stay in line; your voice matters
2) the long lines are a direct consequence of the conspiracy-driven policy changes brought forward by the UCP government (and not your beleaguered election workers); be kind
