It’s been a real pleasure to represent the constituents of Edmonton-Whitemud over the last 4 years. I’m looking forward to working hard over the next 6 months. #ableg #yyc #yeg #abvote

@Stockwell_Day I cannot imagine a worse life than being governed by a coalition of evangelical reverends and plutocratic blowhards for their maximum personal gain.

I can see why you think you think that’s Heaven.

Manitoba aims to recruit U.S. doctors with campaign touting health care system with "zero political interference between you and your patient."
Smart. Too bad Alberta can't say the same.

$240,000 to solve an orthopedic surgery disruption, but UCP Minister Adriana LaGrange (@AdrianaLaGrange) said no instead pointed to Alberta's support of private for-profit surgeries. They are starving the public health care system to privatize.

@TheBreakdownAB @LukaszukAB Unbelievable and unconscionable !

If the Alberta government capitulates to big business lobbyists and prematurely forces more urban sprawl, that would be one of the most financially ruinous decisions in Alberta history.

@CraigBaird There used to be a cairn west of Headingly marking the middle of Canada.
In Rugby ND there is a cairn declaring it to be the center of North America.

@InvestorsFriend @ABDanielleSmith I'm not going to nay say it, but I will note: the potential of this proposal cuts both ways, it could be a huge success or it could be a bust.

It's a matter of quantity. Oxygen is toxic at a high enough level. Anything is. The obvious question is....how much selenium is healthy. Much less than coal mines will put in our water.

Unemployment by Canadian City:

Halifax: 6.2%
Quebec City: 4.5%
Ottawa: 6.1%
Winnipeg: 5.9%
Regina: 5.8%
Victoria: 4.4%

#YEG: 8:1%
#YYC: 8.4%
North AB: 10.7%

This is NOT Trudeau hurting Canada
This is Smith IGNORING Alberta

Smith’s choices are hurting Albertans.

May I suggest, instead of lining the pockets of multi-billionaires and buy items at full retail for our @yegfoodbank (thus retail make profits off of our most vulnerable), you give a cash donation directly to the foodbanks. They have real purchasing power to buy items much cheaper. Please go to this link. https://t.co/5dGz12wdKR

@slav_metalurges You should be in charge of the whole renovation IMO. ✊

[corblund @CorbLund]

Hey Alberta. U like being on the hook for billion$ for orphan wells? You're gonna LOVE selenium contaminated rivers and ground water from coal mines. Same AB regulator oversees both. 100% taxpayers'll be paying 4 massive cleanup when the foreign mining cos go home. Old playbook.

@JasonNixonAB So, if I understand correctly, your plan is to law-enforce your way out of a homelessness epidemic, and have identified the homeless as the enemy that Edmontonians need to be protected from? And this was the sound bite you decided to lead with? Seems on brand.

[Duncan Kinney @duncankinney]

We have surpassed our initial goal of $8500! I'm blown away by the support -- my family and I are so grateful.
With a week of pre-trial upcoming my legal bill is set to balloon again. I'm going to set the goal to $20K.

Alberta company being investigated for supplying Canadian Tire with low-wage foreign workers.

The 'supply' of workers isn't the issue, it's the fact that this bloodsucker of a company charged workers more than $10k each, in addition to charging Canadian Tire.

#Ableg FACT

Yesterday, Premier Smith dropped a BOMBSHELL: 3,400,000 Albertans will be SLAMMED with at least a 15% hike in car insurance rates between 2025 and 2026.

For families this means an EXTRA $600 per year!
