Dear .@bcndp supporters & all NDP supporters. Happy that we held on to Nanimo, don't get me wrong, but..

We're celebrating a 1500 vote win in a riding we used to win by 10,000, a 30,000 vote win in Calgary where we won by 100,00, it's not good enough to win the easy seats/Cities

No shocker: minimum wage study by Munk-funded Montreal Economic Inst cherrypicked jobs data. Monthly volatility in Labour Force Survey of 15-24 year olds means two months over past year can be picked to show job loss — or growth. Overall, 83,000 job gains. https://t.co/04qHLeA2eV

Sorry, I am only active online here once a week. Surprised to see @BFSingh hasn't weighed in on the psychographic targetting and AI he used during the @nenshi campaign in 2017? .@CTVCalgary .@metrocalgary .@CBCCalgary .@CBCFletch #abpoli #CambridgeAnalytics https://t.co/VTzjboZp3L

[Elmo Burns @YYC_Bear]

I'd like to hear @BFSingh 's opinion specifically on this. You used these AI driven psychographic targetting methods for @nenshi in 2017. What can you tell us about the benefits or dangers? Please tell me you are helping the @RachelNotley NDP with this?

I have a question for my fellow #abpoli followers: Have you been following the Cambridge Analytica story closely? What frightens me is the possibility that everything I see online is compromised? I deleted Facebook a while ago, now wondering if I should go offline entirely

[Elmo Burns @YYC_Bear]

And what are the implications for the next #abpoli election? Do we know for sure, has anyone asked @jkenney or @Alberta_UCP if they are using AIQ, SCL or any sort of AI psychographic targetting?

[Josa Deek @josadeek]

The question remains whether the kind of targeting allegedly done by Cambridge Analytica on behalf of Donald Trump’s campaign can actually influence people’s behavior. https://t.co/3euhb5xsqK

Roses are red,
Pipelines aren’t drippy,
Give us access to tidewater,
You ungrateful hippies.

Mr. Kenney wants to take us back, way back. He does not support human rights for women or he would have clarified by now. #ableg

@WesTaylorUCP Translation: After being badly outflanked by Premier Notley on the pipeline front, the UCP desperately seeks relevancy. #Ableg #Abpoli

@MrMTwiz The west have been forewarned of its potential demise under a Trudeau regime. The current Government is not serving the people of the west. In fact they are inflicting setbacks that may cause immutable affliction! It is in AB & Sask best interest to separate. #abpoli #CanPoli

My column tomorrow: For two years Justin Trudeau has been focused on himself — not what matters to Canadians. At the end of 2017, his story is disappointment. #cdnpoli https://t.co/nyiAvBpfhc

I'm so mad about this fake news, twice just in the last week media has knowingly printed false information about @theJagmeetSingh https://t.co/1l8gbEQkif stay strong! #loveandcourage
