@Monica_Dagny You have a great nation which will outlast the Trump regime. He is in decline and soon it will be over.

[Alexander Robin @Alexand73604334]

@david_parker Canada will outwait Trump

[Alexander Robin @Alexand73604334]

@ALazyMarmot We “loose”? Hum, lotta education behind that opinion.

[Katy E 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @MargTokar]

With Danielle Smith it’s always been about power. She’ll burn down our forests, our towns, our Public Ed, our Public HC, our AISH program.

BECAUSE SHE’S ALWAYS THE SMARTEST ONE IN THE ROOM.
Always.

The Turkish Tylenol vendor is still holding $50 million taxpayer dollars, and maybe @ABDanielleSmith should get that money back before raising our property taxes by $400 this year.

Marlaina 🤥🧙‍♀️ watched and let Jasper burn 🔥🔥

Worst Premier in AB history 🤬😱🤮👹

[Nan Douglas @nandouglas]

This is rather damning evidence of Danielle Smith’s politicization of the Jasper wildfire for her own benefit.

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

So the Premier lied to Corb Lund, and to all of us, when she claimed she didn't change the law to benefit her separatist friends.

This is a must-listen, especially for anyone who still believes the Premier cares about democracy or letting Albertans decide anything that falls outside her own political agenda.

One billionaire family controls the bridge that carries 25% of all U.S.–Canada trade.

The good news? There's a brand new public bridge right next door (and Canada paid for the whole thing).

The bad news? Donald Trump won't let it open.

Here's the story:

For more than a decade, Michigan and Canada worked together to build a new public crossing right next to it — six lanes over the Detroit River, named for a Canadian-born Red Wings legend, built by thousands of union workers. Canada paid the entire bill. Michigan co-owns it. It's finished. It’s a shining example of international cooperation and collaboration, with a tremendous return for both sides: more jobs, faster trade, and lower costs.

So why isn't it open?

Because the Moroun family, who own the rival Ambassador Bridge just up the river, doesn’t want the competition. They spent years and tens of millions of dollars trying to stop any competing international crossing from being built or opening. They lost. So they went to the White House instead.

In January, Matthew Moroun gave $1 million to a pro-Trump super PAC. Then the billionaire called Trump's Commerce Secretary and, just hours later, Trump suddenly attacked the same publicly owned bridge he praised in his own first term and threatened to block it.
Then, the day before the June 12th ribbon-cutting, the opening was called off indefinitely.

It's corruption so flagrant it would be laughable if it weren't so damaging.

Trump is screwing over Michiganders for the interests of billionaires — holding a finished, publicly owned project hostage to protect one donor's toll booth.

So a finished bridge sits closed, Michiganders keep paying the higher tolls, cars and trucks cost more, and a billionaire family keeps its monopoly.

Mr. President: stop playing games. Open the damn bridge.

During the election, Premier Smith was asked if "Albertans can trust what you say" in regards to her "Public Health Care Guarantee"

She assured listeners that "We will not be asking people to pay out of pocket for surgical services"

Danielle Smith's words are worthless

[David Shepherd @DShepYEG]

Good piece from Rob Breakenridge.

It says a lot that Danielle Smith is far more invested in protecting the interests of foreign coal billionaires than respecting the rights of First Nations.

In the end, it’s all about what’s good for her, not what’s good for Albertans. #ableg

[JEeEnEnAA @jennAA2014]

You know, while I saw through this, many didn’t. She lied, people believed her when she didn’t run on a healthcare privatization platform and now we are going to lose public healthcare.

[Katy E 🇨🇦🇺🇦 @MargTokar]

A Calgary bylaw got more attention from Danielle Smith than “misplacing” $49M taxpayer dollars…

Your turn…

[disordered @disorderedyyc]

During the election, Danielle Smith called the NDP liars and assured Albertans that:

"no one can jump the queue"
"no one can pay out of pocket"
"no one will ever pay out of pocket"

Premier Smith's election campaign was all lies.

#ableg #abpoli

[Trevor Scott Howell @TSHowell]

A Calgary noise bylaw got Danielle Smith's attention faster than the voter list data leak exposing the private information of three million Albertans.

Just sit with that for a minute.

[Alexander Robin @Alexand73604334]

@djclimenhaga Wow, one would think with the comedic mess the UCP government has created in Alberta, and most specifically the perfidious premier’s desperate leadership, they would have more to worry about than a noise bylaw.

[Kelly Rudyk @kellyrudyk]

True.

[Alexander Robin @Alexand73604334]

@WesternStd Lol

[Alexander Robin @Alexand73604334]

@ABDanielleSmith Unfortunately you have a real credibility problem now. You have lied too often.

[Charles Prepolec 🇨🇦 🇬🇱 🇩🇰 🇺🇦 🇪🇺 @sherlockeditor]

Smith's UCP government was formed on lies & broad deception of the Alberta electorate. Bait & switch tactics. The breakdown of all public services in Alberta was always their plan, so their cronies could could make bank from privatizing. The UCP are not here to help Albertans.
