@westjet is likely losing $1.5-2 million per day, huge reputational risk, branding issues, etc. within days it will cheaper to settle the labour dispute than continue. End it now and get those planes back up in the air.

If you see someone trying to selling this guitar online, please dm me or call the St. Albert RCMP.

It happened tonight between 8:05-8:15pm. My daughter needs the guitar for a concert on Father’s Day.

Hey #StAlbert

A guitar was stolen out my car at 37 Grenfell Ave. Witness saw a man in his 40’s, white t shirt, hat (dark in colour) , dark pants , sunglasses walking a guitar in a soft black backpack case on his back. 1

@anniegirl1138 they literally quote the stats in the article

@elonmuskADO Yes-but why didn’t you make this a poll?

Indigenous mom calls me in tears. She, a former child in care herself, relating to child exploitation, has had Children Services come into their lives. One of the small children is apparently touching the other 3 siblings and mother in a sexual manner. So, according to mom, under threat of an Apprhension, CW wanted to observe the mom and four children sleeping and interacting. So they put mom into a hotel, with ONE BED for mom, 4 small children including a baby to sleep together under the covers. Mom requested a female staff member but was given a male staff to leer over this traumatized family. In my 35yrs doing this, you'd think you heard everything....but I guess not. Mom has made a formal complaint. I hope the @AlbertaOCYA gets involved as well. #abpoli

@carter_AB She’s terrifying.

@coreyhogan What happens then the province slows down the signing of an agreement and the feds just decide to allocate the funds to another bidder? Should a post-secondary program applying to the federal government for summer jobs wage subsidy have to get this pre-approved by the province?

[Dee @DEEMPATHY]

@coreyhogan sounds like red tape to me.

@tsockley @JasonNixonAB @ABDanielleSmith The income support program was often called by hospita social workers for discharge to hotels for homeless Albertans. Sometones it would be denied and they’d go to a shelter. It’s wrong but been happening since Ralph Klein. Never heard of a housing “agency” doing it though.

@AlbertaMom2 @TheBreakdownAB @AmandaChapman @edmontonjournal Our high school graduation rate will drop in 5 years. Watch the graduation rates.

@AdrianaLaGrange @DuaneBratt The diabetes supplies are very limited on the blue cross plans. Average coverage for diabetes supplies for a family making $75,000/year is $2500-4300 per year with coverage for a youth with type 1 and $2800-7100 for an adult.

[Shamelessly_Shantel 📢🤷‍♀️ @ShantelSherwood]

When my son at 3 years old was diagnosed type 1 diabetic before we even learned to care for his disease we were asked about our insurance. Because folks… it’s expensive.
For @AdrianaLaGrange and @ABDanielleSmith to opt out of the pharmaceutical program is cruel. 1/

@djclimenhaga if you are against the APP - please submit the workbook - even if you took the survey before.

@EmmaLGraney Imagine asking a 10 year old trans girl to quit her soccer team? Imagine how her teammate’s feelings of loss and confusion as a team member can no longer play with them?

@sunrickbell @calgaryherald Seems anti-democratic to make sweeping changes to policy without a vote/debate in the legislature-especially since existing laws exist to protect youth, education and health care professionals-, the rights of youth/parents? I guess the #UCP is anti-democratic, anti-human rights.
