Russia is waging information warfare against Canada and other liberal democratic countries, employing sophisticated disinformation strategies to undermine democratic institutions, social cohesion and support for Ukraine in the West. https://t.co/nc8yl6YunS

I’ve know @ABDanielleSmith for over a decade. She knows my door is always open to meet with her any time she wants to talk about evidenced-based policy, rule of law, and human rights. There’s nothing radical about following the Canadian Charter of Rights & Freedoms. #abpoli

[CityNews Calgary @citynewscalgary]

The majority of Albertans living in Edmonton and Calgary want a new premier, according to a new poll. https://t.co/D9gFSX8Uzn

@LukaszukAB @ABDanielleSmith Smith announced:

🪙 Student funding will remain the WORST in Canada

🥔 $0 to alleviate overcrowded public school classrooms

😞 ZERO support for teachers, EA’s & key supports for students

Smith choose to fail EVERY Albertan today so she can enrich UCP donors tomorrow. Sick.

While Brian Jean is musing about the return of R-Star, Alberta was forced to return $137 million that Ottawa provided for orphan well cleanup during COVID. https://t.co/osd0cnPCrB

[Mark Dorin @mark_dorin]

Energy minister ⁦@BrianJeanAB⁩ confirmed what we in the land rights space have known for years: It’s either polluter pay (status quo), or citizen pay with his proposed law change.

The bill to be paid is $260 billion.

Polluter pay is the only way. https://t.co/kYqV1MqotJ

Get the fuck out of here @BrianJeanAB

Why is it always the taxpayer propping up the oil industry.

Fine them, penalize them, raise their royalties until the liability is covered.

[Pat Rodgers @patdrodgers]

What if millions of Canadians suddenly understood that the housing, infrastructure and healthcare issues they are so mad about are mainly the responsibility of the Conservative Premiers they keep re-electing? That would be neat.

[Dr. Luanne Metz @luanne_metz]

Albertans have been clear, they don’t want to leave the CPP.

When will Danielle Smith listen to Albertans and stop this nonsense?

[Rakhi Pancholi @pancholi_rakhi]

The only question that matters is whether Albertans want to leave the CPP. And Danielle Smith already knows the answer to that.

It’s no.

Overwhelmingly, resoundingly no.

Hands off my pension. MY pension, not yours, Danielle. My pension does not belong to ‘Alberta’ in any way, shape or form, and I would get what I will get anywhere in Canada. I earned it, and it’s mine.

[Richard Knack @RichardKnack]

HOW dare Smith say “if Ottawa comes back with a lowball estimate”!

CPP actuaries will come back with correct numbers. Media must challenge her with statements that disgusting. Actuaries don’t use “lowball estimate”.
Actuaries use FACTS !

Smith again misleading Alberta & media.

[Jon Meddings @JMeddings]

What a great summary by @nenshi !

AB's healthcare system is a rapidly devolving mess. And the cause of this? Our government.

Without a change in approach or a change in government Albertans will increasingly die unnecessarily.

Government: You need to fix this now.

[🇨🇦 Moderate Mike 🇨🇦 @CanadianModera1]

"Alberta" does not pay into the CPP. Individual Canadians, many of which have moved around the country during their working life, contribute and benefit. CPP is a pension benefit for being a Canadian & the UCP must stay away. It is not your UCP slush fund. #ableg #abpoli

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Remember when Danielle Smith made big promises about fixing health care in 90 days? Join me for a quick recap on what’s actually been happening.

[Lori Sigurdson @LoriSigurdson]

We are still hearing threats from the UCP about pulling Albertans out of CPP and laying their retirement savings all down on an extremely risky bet.

The UCP think they are better equipped to manage seniors’ pension funds, which is very scary given their abysmal economic record.

[Nan Douglas @nandouglas]

There's something wrong when Danielle Smith can find $161 million for 3 charter schools but refuses to adequately fund AB public schools.
