Alberta's new Minister of Addiction and Mental Health is perhaps best known here for chugging a beer on the floor of our Legislative Assembly. Hope he brings some sober second thought to his new file. #ableg https://t.co/kzTQU2EUMa

@nut_meggy Rachel NotleyNDP offered Alberta Women voters FREE: birth control protection & products, menstural supplies etc. UCP Health Min. LaGrange offers scary sh*t (anti-abortion, pro-birth) to women! Good luck to you all! #NeverVoteConservative

More than 11,000 Canadians who fought in the First World War are still missing, the identification and reburial of soldiers helps bring closure to their ancestors, and gives them a place to visit their family.

I'm not proud to be Canadian, that would imply being Canadian was a choice.

I'm grateful every day that I had the good fortune to be born in this wonderful country. I'm thankful to be Canadian.

What I'm not thankful for is the cult that's fighting to turn Canada into the US.

@Concern70732755 Everything Canadians enjoy today is because of Liberal policies throughout the years. Conservatives voted against everything. Health care. Our constitution. And even our Flag. Liberals build Canada up. Conservatives try to bring it down. These are the facts Jack.

TC Energy is laying off 1,500 Alberta employees.

Suncore is laying off 1,500 Alberta employees.

Both companies announced their decision to can Alberta workers days after election and corporate tax cut promise.

That’s how friends help friends.

This media attempt to normalize and induce mass amnesia about Danielle Smith is disheartening. Someone whose entire, decades-long career has been poor judgement, bad takes on every issue, trusting the wrong people, and divisiveness doesn’t suddenly just stop being that way.

.@AbDanielleSmith the landing on Normandy beach did not “mark the beginning of the Second World War”.

We did not invade Europe and began the war.

WW2 did not start 79 years ago, on June 6, 1944. It started on September 1 1939.

I’m worried about the Alberta curriculum.

The ferocity with which certain prominent conservative 'columnists' are daily, endlessly attacking Mr. Johnston strongly suggests to me that Mr. Johnston knows what he is doing and is right to be doing it.

On the anniversary of D-Day we honour the bravery and sacrifice of Canadians who fought at Normandy.

The BurlOak Naval Veterans and the @JunoBeachCentre's service today recognized the courageous women and men, including #BurlON’s Gordon Schottlander, who fought at Juno Beach.

Jennifer O’Connell, "Before my question for Mr Johnston about FI, I’d like to point out that for the last 15 minutes of questions by the Conservatives, not a single question about FI. She notes they’ve already posted clips for fund-raising. They’re not serious about FI." #PROC
