Alberta’s Minimum Wage Is Lowest in Canada, lower than the poorest provinces.
UCP affordability minister Nathan Neudorf says it's for the sake of young workers!?🤷‍♀️ They might lose their jobs?! Alice Thru the Looking Glass!
Incredible how UCP Govt keeps smearing our faces with obvious untruths!

"Drax, the coal giant-turned-“sustainable energy” company, is purchasing rare, irreplaceable old growth in BC & turning these trees into wood pellets to fuel power plants overseas. Drax is receiving $Millions in subsidies from the Canadian & B.C. government meant for climate solutions!

"Carney’s “generational” budget looks transformational—if you’re a weapons dealer." Harper-style enormous public service cuts and the failure to tackle the affordability and climate crisis while massive $$$ to military, oil giants & the corporate class. But little relief for working people."

#FossilFuels Carney's 1st budget increases tax breaks for LNG & CCS projects, offered to drop proposed emissions cap on O&G sector & soften greenwashing provisions." Govt's auditor says 'Clean tax credits were not implemented effectively to reduce emissions.'"
See CDN Fossil Fuel new buddy - Carney!

#FossilFuel "GHG emissions hit a new record high last year & the overwhelming driver of that rise is fossil fuels. Their extraction has increased since Paris & govts plan to keep increasing it. The current plans are to dig & pump more than 2x amount of fossil fuels compatible with a 1.5C world.

#Agrivoltaics #UCP tinyurl.com/9a6f7278 "The study shows the potential for agrivoltaics to coexist with existing farms, orchards, and ranches, offering a dual benefit of energy generation and agricultural productivity, generating between 8.7 & 17.4 gigawatts of power while shading crops & animals.

#Climate tinyurl.com/4apfyuv3 >$10 Trillion in clean energy transition 2014 - 2024 & record $2 Trillion last year for renewable power to battery storage, cleaner shipping & grids!

But chart shows still FAR short of what's needed to curb GHG emissions.

#Genocide The Leahy Law, necessary for units of other nations that receive weapons from the US, has never been enforced against Israeli military units, even those credibly accused of committing gross violations of human rights. E.g. killing of World Central Kitchen humanitarian workers. SHAME USA!

#Genocide Rep. Delia Ramirez: "If we are truly committed to a long-lasting ceasefire [in Gaza], we must pass my Block the Bombs Act."
Rep. Rashida Tlaib: "There's never been a "ceasefire" - War Criminal Netanyahu & Israeli govt never stopped killing Palestinians. End the genocide now."

Join me in asking the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board to protect our pensions and the climate and stop investing in oil, gas, coal and pipelines. A legal case is already underway. It’s time to stop investing in fossil fuels and recommit to net-zero. win.newmode.net/shiftaction/...

#Climate #Carney Carney abruptly cancelled the Greener Homes Loan program on Oct 1st, tho the Liberals promised to “fund home retrofits and lower energy bills … to adopt heat pumps and energy efficiency upgrades”. You could have financed a Heat Pump Water Heater at 0% interest! Fossil Fuel PM!

#UCP Cutting our basic Rights every which way! Legislated teachers back without any attempt to find options

#UCP 2025: 68 trips to US for UCP, 305 days out of Alberta. Dani gone for 44 days! They sit for 13 of 52 weeks in legislature = only 52 days they are working for you at legislature (Fridays off)! NOT governing for Albertans as look at how they are cut our benefits then have trips on our dime!

#Tenants Ontario Premier Doug Ford’s new legislation gives landlords more ways to evict tenants and tilt the scales at the Landlord Tenant Board, even after tenant groups forced him to back off one of its worst provisions!
Chalk this up with his endless attacks on the disadvantaged & immigrants!

#Carney Carney’s new housing agency, dubbed Build Canada Homes, has tapped a former executive from a corporate mega-landlord to lead it—a move that will help put developers in charge of fixing the crisis they created!

Trump boasts US is “just going to kill people” possibly bringing drugs to U.S. – no trials, proof or congressional approval. U.S. military has struck 10 boats in Caribbean Sea & Pacific, killing 43 people incl Colombian fisherman with no link to drug trafficking. Now Trump says “the land is next.”

#FossilFuel Oil market surplus keeps rising, something has got to give. The global oil market may be at a tipping point as signs of a significant supply glut. Overall oil surplus averaged 1.9 Million barrels /day from Jan - Sept.

#TheGravityWell" #JennyYeremiy "Alberta's separatist movement is not fringe, it's funded.
“The funding web is tangled. Follow the $ far enough & you run into oil interests, private health lobbying & U.S. ideological networks. It’s easier, I guess for the public media & probably safer, to look away.”

#UCP #DanniSmith #ABResistance Alberta "has an ideological stance on funding private education, schools that already charge over $25,000 in tuition fees" then are given 70% funding! Meanwhile, public schools are struggling.
