Wild clouds in East Red Deer in the evening on July 4th 2026. Brought lots of rain and some pea sized hail #abstorms

Opinion: Alberta undermining public education — and democracy

https://t.co/aDF208vJVa

[Shannon 🇨🇦 @ShanMcElroy]

Honest question: for those in support of public $ going to private schools … do you really believe the wealthy deserve well resourced classrooms, low student teacher ratios,swimming pools, and ballet studios, etc. and middle class and poor children do not?

[Dale Thompson / Дейл Томпсон 🇺🇦 @daleethompson]

With all the ridiculous bashing of teachers and the teachers union out in Alberta for talking about striking, I feel the need to address a few sensical things about the entire entitlement of ganging up on educators online.

Allow me to plot out a logical path here.

@MargTokar Public taxes should never go to private or charter schools. EVER

[VisuallyBetter @Isuckatpicking]

My Enmax bill total for June/July/August

2022 - $574.03
2023 - $1,164.84

Increase of 103% versus a year ago.

Carbon tax

2022 - $57.47
2023 - $64.49

It’s not the carbon tax that’s making life unaffordable. It’s the UCP and @ABDanielleSmith

@TheBreakdownAB Public $$ go to public schools not private schools #fullstop You choose to send your kids to a private school you pay for it. Shoul not even be a discussion

[Dennis Buchanan @LawyerBuchanan]

Eight years ago, the Alberta NDP began the process of transitioning Alberta to a capacity market, to ensure availability and steady pricing.

In 2019, the UCP reversed that decision, downplaying concerns about price spikes and blackouts.

And here we are.

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Global also did a Year End Interview with Smith...

It's that interview that brings us today's episode of "Danielle Smith Lies a lot".

Because she claims she has always supported subsidies for billionaires & arenas.

But we went to @disorderedyyc's tape...

The UCP made 3-key promises to Albertans in 2019:

1. Pipelines: -1 (We Lost $1,500,000,000 betting on KXL)

2. Jobs: #YYC: WORST Unemployment rate of any Major City in 🇨🇦

3. Economy: AIMCo posted 3.4% loss/ worst wage growth in 🇨🇦

They don’t deserve a 2nd chance!

@MikeKHansen Sorry for your loss! They are one of the family.

What an absolute grounding & collective experience.We all win when we place value on education. Our collective society depends on equitable access to education.
Standing alongside my partner was an absolute electrifying experience.
