“And, in fact, I did no such thing.
“I would note that the report didn’t even say it was AHS who destroyed them, only that they had ‘been destroyed”
Smith apparently caught in another lie after the former AHS CEO calls her out!

People were arguing in my mentions today about whether the Earth is "round" when it's technically an irregular oblate spheroid and look "round" doesn't mean "absolutely perfect sphere" it means round. A soccer ball is round, a cantaloupe is round, a fluffy borb in winter is round, just go with it.

Carney understands that the market is going to say no —and that the federal government doing it first only helps Danielle Smith further her political project of dividing the country and turning Albertans against Canada.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I hope Albertans will remember that trans kids and teens are living breathing humans who just want to be themselves, without fear of hate and discrimination. Demonizing kids merely to score political points in some weird culture war is craven and cruel.

I've been saying it for a while. Coach Knob is pushing the "beat Florida" system, but this team is not built for it. This is a speed & skill team playing dump and chase hockey. I gave him the benefit of the doubt that it was Gullys fault, but he's gone now and the problem is worse.

The UCP's pre-emptive use of the notwithstanding clause is further evidence of their populist approach to policymaking.
Pluralists -- whether progressives committed to minority rights or libertarians prizing checks & balances on government power -- must stand together against this over-reach.

I've used different adjectives (lazy, impatient, vengeful), but these are equally valid theories.
Use of the notwithstanding clause is a betrayal of the duty of a government to its people. If you can't enact your agenda without violating the rights of your citizens, you are either stupid and unimaginative or vicious and cruel.
