CANCEL CULTURE CANCELED GALILEO
AND ALSO ME

On pages 147-148 in which he declares himself a victim of cancel culture and compares himself to Galileo (hahaha)

This poem was a Member's Statement titled "Truth" and delivered in the Legislature. So it was paid for by taxpayers.

So Jason Stephan, re-elected UCP "MLA" for Red Deer-South has contempt for his constituents & goes on vacation instead of getting sworn in, has the honour of having 3 POEMS in the Jason Kenney Poetry Project. His contempt is not new. Download pdf at the link in bio. Poems are⬇️🧵

HOSTILE PARASITIC PARTNERS
on page 114, in which he declares contempt for the rest of Canada

@PhilipTurnbull @elonmusk Exactly... here's a poem from our #JasonKenney book that shows the nonsense the CEC gets up to with OUR tax dollars. The poem is a direct citation of their letter to Netflix complaining that the Bigfoot movie was undermining Oil and Gas. #AbLeg #AbPoli

1/ Hey, @ElectionsAB: It seems Albertans are getting messages from a Stephen Harper regarding the Alberta election. Mr. Harper is not a candidate. He is currently Chair of IDU, an international body that seeks to influence elections around the world.

That current position puts

Sonya deserves another Bigfoot poem for this performance. 2 years ago she bragged that Covid restrictions provided a GREAT time to get pipelines built because humans couldn't protest.

Our #ArtResearch book has all the receipts! See 🧵⬇️ for her poem "Get it Built"

[Courtney Theriault @cspotweet]

Environment Minister Sonya Savage says she wishes the UCP had released its climate plan 2 years ago.

Adds they are releasing it without interim targets now because to set those targets would take time -says industry wants a plan now. #yeg #yyc #ableg

Here's Sonya's poem from May 22, 2020.
Where was her aspirational climate plan then?!

Seriously?? Seriously?!!

Dan Williams deserves a poem. Might get around to that.

Please citizens, please vote for people who take their job and responsibilities seriously.

Mark another box on your #ableg bingo card.

UCP MLA Dan Williams pays tribute to the Royal Canadian Legion… by chugging an AGD beer in the legislature.

(Speaker Cooper noted his dislike of props in the legislature) #yeg #yyc #ableg

This is the opening poem for Bigfoot, Buffalo, and Bumbles. We thought Bigfoot should have the opportunity to speak for themselves, given what was going on in #AbLeg #AbPoli

#ArtResearch

[The Jason Kenney Poetry Project @bigfootbumbles]

Kind of like when Jason Kenney, the UCP, & the War Room (et al) tried to control Netflix and get Bigfoot banned. Not funny.

Bigfoot wrote a guest poem "Tell the Truth" for our book! Check it out in the 🧵⬇️

This poem feels as terrifying & dangerous as the day it happened. Seeds of authoritarianism. Pay attention. Read @TimothyDSnyder book "On Tyranny" for advice on how to respond. We documented these Jason Kenney years with art. @JackieSeidel1 wrote poems @DarleneGeorges illustrated

This week was the anniversary of the seed of our "Bigfoot, Buffalo, & Bumbles" project when former premier Jason Bumbles Kenney introduced Bill 1: The Critical Infrastructure Defence Act in #AbLeg #abpoli with a terrifying rant 1/3🧵

Jason Kenney's rant became the 1st poem "My Enemies: Part II" which was first published in @AlbertaViewsMag . Pay attention when a gov't brings in their 1st bill meant to make environmental protests illegal. 2/3 #PetroCultures #PetroState #AbLeg

.... and finally, Jason Kenney, the fortune teller, predicts the future of Oil and Gas ... and then stops the news conference and runs away before it can get worse for him.

👏Perfectly captures Jason Kenney's (UCP et al) attitude towards the media.

See our poem: "How to Shut Up Journalists: An Instruction Manual" (screenshot posted in following tweet) based on JK's response to Edmonton CHED radio’s Shaye Ganam

JK's getting his groove back now... "The small minority in congress that wants to pursue the ideological fantasy of Shutting Down The Modern Industrial Economy"
