Don’t blame me, I didn’t vote for the United Convoy Party. Allergic to separatist chuds, MAGA hats, and Smith’s alternate facts. #ProudAlbertanProuderCanadian
Ideally I would have preferred that a DeSantis-worshipping, conspiracy-hugging, quackery-promoting, clownvoy-supporting, poppy-rejecting, flip-flopping separatist teaser and our Premier be 2 different people.

It would be normal diplomacy to remove any foreign ambassador who openly promotes removal of Canada's sovereignty and who openly consorts with seditionists, felons, etc.
Rarely do I believe that we're being too polite, but in this case I do. Throw him back to the Southern Swamp.
Frankly, I'm sick and tired of seeing Canadian media platform this porcine prick. Either prepare to submit this buffoon to a hostile, highly aggressive on-air carpeting or keep his tick-ridden carcass far away from your studio. He has absolutely nothing of value to contribute.
Collected my energy rebate (what a process that was) and promptly donated $100 to the @abndpcaucus
I challenge everyone to do the same TODAY!
Maybe the NDP will share the amount of donations they received on July 1?
@dnSabine Go look up what would happen to every inch of American farmland without Canadian potash. We'll wait.
Americans not understanding how utterly dependent on Canada they are doesn't actually reduce that dependency.
Uh oh..lol
The Trump administration thought they threw a punch by demanding a yearly review of the CUSMA trade deal, but they might have just actually walked right into a Canadian trap.
By forcing a constant renegotiation cycle, Washington didn't flex its muscles; it just gave Canada and Mexico a permanent, predictable mechanism to out-manoeuvre American interests.
Economically, this is a massive win for Canada.
Instead of waiting sixteen years to fix trade imbalances, Canada’s negotiating team can now use the annual review to dynamically tweak supply chains, adjustments, and tariffs.
For example, if the U.S. tries to restrict Canadian steel, Ottawa can immediately counter-balance it in the next annual cycle by leveraging critical minerals that American tech sectors desperately need.
I'm pretty sure that our Prime Minister and his trade negotiators knew EXACTLY what they were doing here lol.
They accepted the "yearly review" demand with a smile because they realized a secret technical truth: a rolling contract gives the smaller, faster partner CONSTANT leverage.
While the U.S. administration celebrates a hollow political victory, Canada can now form stronger secondary trade alliances around the world, using the constant fluidity of CUSMA to offer global markets a highly adaptive backdoor into North America.
Ultimately, Washington's attempt to keep its neighbors on a short leash seems to have backfired completely, proving that when you constantly demand to look at the contract, you give the smarter guys 365 days a year to rewrite the rules.
There might be some temper tantrums in Washington because of this.
I mean, you've GOT to give Carney some serious cred here...
Even you 'con-bros' who don't like the guy, come on..this is gold!

Pierre increased his shadow cabinet from 73 to 84 MPs today.
Carney’s cabinet they’re shadowing is 38 MPs.
Shows you how ineffectual Conservatives MPs are - it takes 2.2 Conservatives to shadow 1 Liberal.
Conservatives cost taxpayers more money. @BenLobbMP@AlexRuff17
Bit by bit, the substructure of our democracy is being eroded. A delay to annual reports may seem minor, but add it to the list: FOIP dysfunction, gerrymandering and other elxn meddling, interfering with independent officers and cities, withholding and manipulating info... #ableg
There's an easy way to handle the UCP's dilemma over the "Water Not Coal" petition: The government needs to suspend any development until the referendum is held and Albertans vote on it. @CorbLund#waternotcoal#abpoli
You were all traitors because you wanted to overthrow an elected government, fly Nazi flags, and urinated on the tomb of the unknown soldier.
Flying a Canadian flag does not make you a patriot. It’s your actions that do and you failed on all accounts.
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.
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
#ableg
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.
The speed and ferocity of the conservative response to Cowboy’s having to lower the volume at midnight on a Tuesday is truly something to behold.
Now imagine if the UCP cared that much about wait times in Emergency Rooms. #ableg
Over 200,000 Albertans came out and signed a petition saying no coal mining on the Eastern Slopes. Now the Premier says it's too late to put the petition question to a referendum.
For months, the Premier changed the rules for the separatists. Their signatures weren't even validated. The court said their petition was unconstitutional. But the Premier gave her separatist friends their referendum anyway.
But when it comes to coal mining on the Eastern Slopes, suddenly there's all these rules. Suddenly it's too late.
This is hypocrisy.
Alberta's New Democrats have always been clear: no coal mining on the Eastern Slopes.
