Stephen Lewis has passed away

One of the best clips of him is remembering Tommy Douglas on the day of his passing 40 years ago

It's a sad day, but as @avilewis said: "son: not in my lifetime, but maybe in yours"

@nenshi Wow, pretty disappointing. Many of us NDP folk in Alberta voted for Avi and want to see leadership on climate change and renewable energy.

HEALTH: Privatization of hospitals generally corresponded with worse quality of care, fewer cleaning staff per patient, higher infections and higher rates of avoidable deaths, according to a study published in The Lancet Public Health.

The UCP rarely consult with actual local experts when it comes to policy 🤦🏻‍♀️

While Danielle Smith dines on steak and champagne with elites….

THOUSANDS of teachers march below her, unpaid, demanding a fair deal for our kids

The contrast says EVERYTHING about her priorities.

[VisuallyBetter @Isuckatpicking]

Albertans are asking for:

- Better teacher compensation and smaller class sizes
- lower insurance costs
- transparency on corruptcare
- improvements in healthcare

Meanwhile Danielle Smith and the UCP........ #ableg

[Dr. Kristopher Wells @KristopherWells]

Pay the teachers.

Properly fund public education and classroom supports.

End all public funding for private schools.

[Jen The Feisty Librarian @Feisty_Waters]

Solidarity with the teachers!

[Sean Amato @JSJamato]

Interesting poll, just received...

Seems the majority of Albertans are siding with striking teachers, including 28% of UCP voters.

Wow, provincial dentist associations are actively trying to stop low income Canadians from visiting dentists if that visit is paid for by the feds. They hope a change in gov will torpedo the whole thing . https://t.co/zzdgUYDY15 @ccpa

Alberta’s auditor general just released a report on surface water management. Its findings seem somewhat concerning:

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

“24 of Alberta’s school divisions will have less teachers next year, despite a significant increase in student enrollment

“A scan of publicly available school board budget reports for 2024-25 shows that province-wide, more than 250 teaching positions are being eliminated”
