Scientific American has agreed with major news outlets worldwide to start using the term “climate emergency” in its coverage of climate change. Read our statement about this decision, and the impact we hope it can have throughout the media landscape. https://t.co/ccpALIvpxe

A year ago I opened a FB message from a guy named @shawn_p_mendes.

"Based on what my cousin told me, I think we may be related," he wrote.

14 mins later we'd uncovered a truth that had been hidden for 36 years.

This is our story.

Politico types tell me that MLAs really do get rattled if they get enough phone calls about particular issues, and they send that message up the chain to the Ministers and the Premier. Don't just email, call and try to book an appointment and make them listen to you.

[David Shepherd @DShepYEG]

If these MLAs are truly concerned about impacts on individuals & businesses, they can advocate for their gov't to offer real supports to help them get through the pandemic.

So far, I haven't heard any of them do so. Their lack of leadership echoes that of their leader. #ableg

There’s a 300,000 difference between vaccine doses received in Alberta and what’s been administered.

Three cities of #Lethbridge worth of vaccine is waiting in freezers.

Time for the UCP government to get their rear in gear, as my mother would say.

Turns out that electing a government that fundamentally doesn’t believe in governance, expert advice, or public sector delivery of programs is problematic during a pandemic.

Muslims have been in Canada since 1871, Sikhs since 1897, Hindus since 1911. We are NOT newcomers. We are NOT unfamiliar. We ARE your neighbours, friends,farmers, teachers, fellow citizens. We are NOT “others”. #abed #ableg

“This unnecessary delay is a complete failure by Jason Kenney and the UCP that puts 20,000 jobs at risk at a time when Calgarians need them the most,” ⁦@joececiyyc⁩ said. #ableg https://t.co/OBn1KuKmr1

1/Question: When is a deal not a deal? Answer: When we’re talking Green Line.

There is an agreement in place between three orders of government. The money has been allocated. The plan has been approved. But that’s not enough for the province.

[Alberta NDP @albertaNDP]

Albertans can not trust the UCP on this issue. We must pass a law to protect our mountains.
