"Alberta has been reducing our emissions for years," says @BrianJeanAB

Really?

#Ableg Fact

Alberta has the HIGHEST inflation and the LOWEST minimum wage in Canada.

So why are Smith's priorities focused on spreading conspiracy theories like chemtrails instead of improving conditions for all of Alberta's workers?

Smith’s incompetence is a choice.

It just doesn’t end.

Smith - “I spoke to the woman who controls airspace in Alberta”

Actual people who control the airspace - “Nope, the Alberta govt has not reached out to inquire about chemtrails”

So again…

Danielle Smith lies.

@TheBreakdownAB She’s so over her head!

Our provincial government is trying to rewrite history, and in doing so, they will ensure this happens again. I will never forget the agonizing conversations, the fear, and the darkness at the heart of the delta wave. The eyes of the dying do not avert their gaze, nor will I.

Did you hear Danielle Smith wants to privatize your local hospital?

She wants to take hospitals away from AHS and hand them over to other people to run. Maybe Covenant Health, maybe someone else. Nobody knows.

Remember, the UCP privatized lab services in 2020 and it was a disaster. Endless waits to get an appointment, even longer waits to get results, and doctors sounding the alarm about mistakes in tests. Eventually the UCP had to reverse the whole thing at a massive cost.

It was a dangerous and expensive failure, and that’s what Smith wants to try with hospitals.

Let me tell you why I'm concerned.

The Premier doesn’t understand healthcare, hospitals, or how competition works. She’s barely said a word about her plans for AHS since announcing that she's going to break it up. Instead, we hear these drips and drabs at members-only meetings in the lead-up to Smith’s UCP leadership review.

Second, she said she wants a health care system that is ruled by “competition and fear.” This is bizarre, and it’s not going to work. Systems that are based on fear will inevitably collapse and those incentives don’t work in public service delivery.

The folks at Covenant Health do amazing work right across the province every day, but we must recognize that Covenant facilities do not offer the full range of healthcare that Albertans expect, particularly in reproductive health and end of life issues.

And despite what the Premier said, Covenant has been forced to shutter some of their emergency rooms, just as AHS has, because they have the same problem – a UCP government that is hostile to healthcare professionals. Changing the sign outside doesn’t create new doctors. Even if Tyler Shandro is on the board.

Maybe Smith is just musing and saying the first thing that she thinks will please the person she’s talking to. Again. The problem is when you’re Premier, people work to turn your musings into reality.

I’m concerned Smith is taking us down a path she hasn’t thought through at all.

We need a government that is competent. That is not ideological, that does not make up its plans on the fly to save itself. We need better, and that’s what Alberta’s New Democrats promise.

@kdconroy8 @RealTalkRJ @BloodOriginsCan We should listen to PHD. Bear expert, Sarah Elmeligi vs. Mark Hall & Todd Loewen, who earn income through hunting/hunters. Hall states farmers go to bed at night fearing their baby sheep will be massacred by a grizzly in the night... He's simplyfying things.

The ‘Americanization’ of Canadian politics, as hundreds of fake social media accounts (bots) are being used to hype up federal Conservative Party leader Pierre Poilievre.
When you real social media posts, beware of the source. #cdnpoli #nlpoli

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Alberta doctors are once again raising the alarm about the current state of healthcare in this province with no clear response from the provincial government.

From Dr. Paul Parks, the president of the AMA: “It is becoming evident that the system will not hold without immediate government action. Government says that they share our concerns, but without immediate action on key components, I am extremely concerned that they do not understand our dire sense of urgency.”

Our healthcare professionals are shouting for help. When will the UCP listen?

[Tony Clark @Tony__Clark]

In 2020, the UCP loosened meat slaughter and inspection rules.

If you don’t think that expensive skybox tickets wouldn’t influence government decisions…

Smith literally rewrote the conflict of interest act to get access to them.

Skybox tickets have already influenced government decisions.

Without meaningful changes in forestry practices, firefighting resources & a substantial pivot to renewable energy in an attempt to mitigate climate warming Banff will be next & Alberta will have hobbled their tourism industry in two fell swoops while bowing to a waning industry.

[Scott @Scott_755]

Alberta is on fire.

But hey, we have a budget surplus.

Albertans are dying without cancer treatment.

But hey, we have a budget surplus.

Classroom are crowded, and teachers are exhausted.

But hey, we have a budget surplus.

This is winning in #Alberta.

@LukaszukAB @ABDanielleSmith Isn’t she the person that blamed people for getting cancer because of their lifestyle habits, like consuming too much junk, such as Dr. Pepper?

She nailed it in this video.

This is what happens when zealous, ideology filled kids, with zero life experience, no job, move straight from their parents’ home into the House of Commons at the age of 24.

Leadership requires empathy, grace, dignity and maturity.
