@StevenDollansky@staceybrotzel Looking forward to meeting with Minister Wilson on Thursday to support the provincial government’s work on addressing mental health, addictions, and homelessness.
Great to see that even after gerrymandering much of Florida, many Democrats are still getting elected to the House.
Gerrymandering should never be allowed and election maps should only be approved by an independent commission versus having parties in power draw their own maps.
@drslmd We should trust our local teachers, medical professionals, elected representatives, librarians, etc. to make decisions for the local people they serve. We shouldn’t be trampling local democracy and that’s what’s happening across Alberta right now.
@drslmd But that is completely separate from the erosion of our local democracy. Telling libraries what books they should carry, removing tools that keep our roads safer, telling municipalities how to plan local roads, telling schools which flags to fly, etc.
Canada is worth fighting for.
Polls are open in Alberta from 9am until 8pm. Visit https://t.co/lzpndUGZVc for information on how to vote.
Vote today. Vote for Canada.
Edmontonians always come together in times of need. We support one another, show compassion and step up when our neighbours need us most, and it matters now more than ever.
Our hearts are with Wainwright, Canadian Armed Forces and their families following the news of a devastating incident at CFB Wainwright.
This news affects members of our military community as well as all of Alberta and Canada.
A serious incident creating a major fire has occurred at CFB Wainwright, in Alberta.
Our thoughts are with all the brave women and men affected.
We are working closely with the Government of Alberta and local authorities. Premier Smith and I are in close contact as are our relevant ministers and officials.
We are learning of a significant and tragic fire at CFB Wainwright today that is affecting many of our brave military personnel.
Alberta’s government is in close contact with the Government of Canada and Prime Minister Mark Carney as this situation evolves.
Thank you to the first responders and all those providing care and support to those affected.
@keithgerein@aasingleton17 We’ve made the same request for all data used to inform their directive to the ministry. I’ll be asking if we have received a reply during tomorrow’s special council meeting.
Here’s one of the leaders of the separatist movement suggesting the Premier just randomly fire @JeromyYYC even though he was elected a year ago.
Who cares about democracy? Clearly not the separatists.
I’m no fan of @ABDanielleSmith these days… but firing @JeromyYYC would go a long way towards making her seem less weak.
The only question is would Mark Carney give her permission to do it given that Carney runs her.
