They bargained until 11pm every night, then finally had a response from the employer with 1 minute on the timer! Now we have yet to see if the membership will ratify the new agreement.

Wow, so it was actually a "vehicle hitting equipment" which knocked out power all through Terra Losa, West Meadowlark Park, Summerlea, and Place LaRue, with full restoration expected at 3pm (over 6.5 hours)! :o

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance, honoring the memory of trans folk whose lives were lost in acts of anti-trans violence, following Transgender Awareness Week since the 13th.

2 days ago the UCP stripped trans youth of their Canadian Charter rights in order to pass 3 hateful anti-trans bills.

“I look at the Americans. I look at Ron DeSantis in Florida and Kristi Noem in South Dakota. They’ve been able to create little bastions of freedom, and we can create a little bastion of freedom in Alberta as well.”

Merry Christmas, Alberta!

This is Transgender Awareness Week. It's no coincidence that the UCP passed anti-trans legislation on this week, and invoked the notwithstanding clause to strip charter rights and shield the UCP from judicial oversight. Haters need to ridicule and mock, and show utter contempt.

First it was the right to assembly, now to be free from DISCRIMINATION!

Danielle Smith calls the existence of trans kids the most urgent threat to the safety of other children. Statistically you are probably not trans, but these fundamental rights belong to all of us. They will come for yours next.

Interesting... I didn't know this connection was so deep.

(And no, I'm not including MTG as a credible source, but the Times of Israel sure are fired up about her comments, lol.)

The House of Representatives voted 427-1 to approve the Epstein discharge petition, which was offered by Democrat Ro Khanna and Republican Thomas Massie.

When people are scared of Trump's America and you have to tell them that Danielle Smith's Alberta is much worse.

Good quotes, but that's still a lot of words to say that the only purpose of the UCP's municipal parties was to buy an election with big money.

Among the commitments now inscribed in its Back to School Act is a requirement to pay for 3,000 more teaching positions during the next three school years.

But what wasn't clear is that the 2025-26 provincial budget had already allocated funding for exactly this purpose.

This would be like a rural American town arresting a few members of the KKK after a lynching, then the KKK responding by burning down Black churches and writing "White Power" on the remains, while the local sheriffs continue to round up Black folk across the state and imprison them for being Black.

Updates from Canada Post (today, Monday) and from the Union on Friday. It sounds like massive cuts are being implemented, but they are somehow promising (without details on how) to maintain rural delivery. Do I have any CUPW members following me who can weigh in on this?

How unsurprising that the Holocaust Encyclopedia doesn't agree with the UCP's persecution.

First they came for the communists, then the socialists, then the trade unionists, then the Jews, then me.

Socialist & Unionist NDP invoked this poem over the persecution of Union workers' collective rights.

The results are rising steadily, reflecting about 2/3 union members and 1/3 non-union. Over 8100 ready to personally hit the line so far right now.
