Happy Pride Month, Calgary.

Pride began as a protest. It was a demand for equal rights, equal treatment, and equal dignity. Every gain was earned by people who refused to stay silent in the face of discrimination and hate.

To gender and sexually diverse Calgarians: you belong here. You always have. You helped build this city from the beginning, as workers, business owners, artists, volunteers, community leaders, friends, and family. Those who seek to erase you, target you, or strip away your rights are wrong. We will oppose them. We will confront hate wherever it appears.

We will defend your right to live openly, safely, and proudly. And we will win. The future of Calgary will not be shaped by fear, resentment, or exclusion. It will be built by people who believe every person has value and every person belongs. The forces of intolerance have lost before, and they will lose again.

We are moving forward. We are not going back.

@arjunswritings @USAmbCanada You’re a fucking moron, just like the “ambassador”

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@USAmbCanada Fuck you 😘

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@Gerry39464526 Which makes you a separatist

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@Albertaardvark You hate Canada so much you want to no longer be part of it, yet want to retain your citizenship? Pick a fucking lane

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@Gerry39464526 Secondly, I’m guessing you’re the one who’s not actually from here 🤷‍♂️

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@Gerry39464526 I’m from Central Alberta, born and raised. Not everyone in this province thinks like you.

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@RiseOfAlberta But mandatory military service and baby making is so in tune with the times 😂

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@treadheavynow Because you said it, it must be true 😂

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@elie_mcn Who do you think fostered the current state of Edmonton? All of those items you listed fall under provincial jurisdiction. Health, Justice, Social Services.

[akhivae @akhivae]

Alberta's largest cities, Calgary and Edmonton, are anti-seperatist strongholds.

Today, the mayor of Edmonton signaled they were exploring potential options for decoupling the city from the province. It's more of a threat than a serious action for now.

But it opens Pandora's Box. If Alberta can leave Canada, why can't Edmonton leave Alberta?

[Jason Kenney 🇨🇦🇺🇦🇮🇱 @jkenney]

Clown show. 🤡

One nutty separatist leader (Rath) says that I’m a Canadian patriot because I want to draft young Albertans “to die in the Ukraine war.”

Another nutty separatist leader (Sylvester) says that his Republic of Alberta would actually impose a military draft on young Albertans.

To fight in what war? 🧐

Albertans thinking of voting for separation to “send a message” or “get a new deal:” this is the kind of whackiness you would be enabling.

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@JasonLavigneAB Yeah I’m sure companies will rush to a place where people are forced into military and women are expected to stay at home and pop out endless babies 🙄

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@JeromyYYC Can we please take an example from Edmonton and explore options for more municipal autonomy from the province? Have federal designation etc?

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

Many behind the separatist movement are legit disgusting freaks who are leaving a horrible stain on Alberta’s reputation as a welcoming and safe place for all.

[Jeromy (Pathfinder) Farkas @JeromyYYC]

Albertans deserve to know exactly what some of the leading voices behind separation are advocating: mandatory military service, citizenship based on birthplace, and a vision of society that belongs in the past.

At a time when Calgary is attracting talent, investment, and opportunity from across Canada and around the world, the provincial referendum decision is giving oxygen to a movement that creates uncertainty, division, and risk.

Our city needs more homes, more jobs, more infrastructure, and stronger ties with the rest of Canada and the world. Instead, we're being dragged into a debate that threatens investment, undermines confidence, and distracts from the real challenges facing Albertans.

Calgary's future is as a growing, confident Canadian city. We must be focused on building that future, not legitimizing a movement that puts it at risk.

@gljsauer @SeeClickFlash The article is literally from a year ago. He openly supported getting oil to Churchill yesterday at the Western Premiers Conference in Kananaskis.

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@JasonLavigneAB The article is literally from July of 2025 This is clickbait and fear-mongering supreme. He seemed very supportive with the transportation corridor agreement and mention of getting the products to Churchill. Facts truly don’t seem to matter for you.

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@AndrewKnack @Frazzling @boehmerB Blaise, you realize that outside of being the Mayor of Edmonton, he is also a citizen of Alberta?

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

@amberrboyle So gay friendly 🙄

[Doug @Doug_YYC]

Living in Alberta is mentally exhausting. I love this province but there is so much hate & division that exists here now and I don’t like it. Whether it’s targeting minorities, Canada, or our neighbours, it has to stop. Canada didn’t lose its way, Alberta did. #cdnpoli #ableg
