This is what oligarchy looks like:

Elon Musk, the wealthiest man alive, spent $290 million to elect Trump.

Since Election Day, Musk became $548 billion richer while his companies (SpaceX & Tesla) paid $0 in federal income taxes last year after making $13.7 billion in profits.

The government doesn’t deny that any of this evidence exists, it just wants to use legal maneuvering to try and suppress it?

Fun fact.

If a company intends to hire someone under the Temporary Foreign Worker Program and pay them less than $36 an hour, that’s considered low wage.

In Alberta, the maximum wage for a Primary Care Paramedic is $35.40 an hour.

Here's something everybody should be paying attention to: Congressional Republicans are trying to weaken the Affordable Care Act and put millions of people at risk of losing their health care. Call your Senators and tell them we can't let that happen.
Shhh. Republicans are trying to repeal Obamacare again. Sort of.
They’re not branding it an Obamacare repeal this time around, but congressional Republicans are pursuing cuts to programs that are part of the 15-year-old health-care law.

The UCP may be starting to see the first signs of the FO part of their bad faith engagement with Albertans.

There are a LOT of folks who simply don’t believe their claims about the books “found” in schools with Kindergartners having access to them.
