It’s hilarious that cbc will not defend itself against Vance, or contextualize his jabs in how his administration has defunded any public media.

I anticipate good faith examination of his claims. “Is canadas standard of living *really* that bad!”?”

No survival skills.

With the preemptive use of S. 33, Bill 9 attempts to shield 3 statutes that form a fundamental intrusion into the relationships between trans kids and their parents, doctors/medical professionals, teachers/schools, and sport communities.

We stand to assert our forceful, sustaining opposition.

This post details what's at stake in the UCP's invocation of the Charter's notwithstanding clause to override the rights of trans and gender diverse youth. The government had other options, and to use the nuclear option of s 33 calls into question its confidence in its ability to justify its laws.

To all the trans kids who are hurting because of the hateful attacks from Danielle Smith, know that you belong.
You are loved.
We will fight alongside you.

Tomorrow, the Auditor General will release his report into the UCP's Dynalife fiasco.

They're hoping to flood the zone this week with citizenship markers and anti-trans legislation.

Keep your focus on the targets.
And the broader pattern.

The UCP is shifting Alberta away from liberal democracy.
Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

But not impossible.

Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

I really feel for trans, two-spirit and gender diverse people in Alberta today.

When Saskatchewan used the notwithstanding clause against trans youth, it felt enormous. It is enormous.

“Whether that makes them lazy, impatient, or vengeful, the result is the same.

Pre-emptively using Section 33 doesn’t just allow the government to do an endrun around the courts.

It removes their obligation to defend their laws as being necessary and justified in a democratic society.”
Why use the notwithstanding clause?
On laziness, impatience, and vengeance.

Wait, Ben Mulroney is the fucking keynote speaker at the Saskatchewan Party convention today?

He’s giving a keynote talk on ‘reinvention’ right before Scott Moe’s leadership review.

How is this even allowed @globalnews.ca?

This is quite the listen. Carney has commit just 900,000 to 10/day and 5 million to universal dental and a fucking billion to AI. A total fuck you to every progressive that bought the Elbows up Rhetoric. They even canned the yacht tax to appease the billionaires.

David Cochrane knows enough about economics to lob up the spin of business leaders in a “very serious” way, but not enough about political economy to ask questions that are in any way relevant to people, their lives, or their jobs.
