Anyone complaining about the Oilers being "Canada's team" is probably a terrible potluck guest

A concise illustration of how ranked ballots fail to remedy strategic voting, #cdnpoli CPC and NDP voters would find themselves in this exact situation every election.

Not all #electoralreform options are equal!

my luke-warmest take is that no NDP MP's will cross the floor before the leadership race is finished

Just found out #ABLeg has the only chamber in the country that displays all provincial and territorial flags — a gesture of national unity first adopted back when Quebec was considering separation.

Yesterday, the Premier confirmed she's making secession easier just to maintain her power. Ugh.

Well the surprise #ABLeg was a bit of a dud.
Smith essentially just commits to keep running the "blame Ottawa" playbook 🤷‍♂️

Update: ABNDP Convention unanimously passes a resolution to work with the Alberta Federation of Labour to incorporate elements of the "Workers' Agenda" into the party's platform and strategy for the next provincial election.

ABNDP Convention update:

A constitutional amendment to allow provincial members to opt out of federal membership has passed by 2/3 majority

Welp if nothing else, the current seat projection will make for an interesting election in 2.5 years

First-past-the-post is such a stupid electoral system.

#Election2025

My mom demanded a seat projection so you all get one too:

🟥 Lib 183
🟦 CPC 142
🛄 BQ 10
🧡NDP 8
🟩Green 0

Quick lil’🧵 on why I’m voting for the NDP in Edmonton Centre this election and you should too

In brief,
1. Best chance for progressive policy priorities getting representation
2. @trishaestabrooks.bsky.social has worked incredibly hard for your vote
3. The NDP is still competitive here
