This message about the death of Rob and Michelle Reiner actually made me feel bad for Trump. To have that much hate inside at this time to year is a very sad thing. If anyone needs to watch a Rob Reiner movie it’s Donald Trump. I suggest When Harry Met Sally.

Keep your fucking religion out of government and our schools.

This has no business going out to public school families.

Resign now

@JustinTrudeau @kishida230 You deserve only the Best in life. Thank you for all that you have done for Canada, during Covid and safeguarding the vulnerable and Ukraine. You sir are unique and wish there were more like you. Wishing you many happy times for you in this next chapter.

Maddening more hasn't been done to stop this exploitive clinic that markets unproven BS.

American ALS patient died alone after paying $84K US in pursuit of healing at controversial Sask. facility https://t.co/52IHQ5fMow by @gleocbc

Supplements to cure ALS? Feels criminal.

.@ryanjespersen The ball is now in Premier’s court.

#ForeverCanadian is a community building, healing movement. Nearly 1/2 million Albertans spoke out. Polling shows that 80% of us reject separatism.

Referendum campaign will further divide us and erode business confidence.

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

It’s wild that a provincial government that has enacted countless policies that they didn’t campaign on or that they actively denied they would implement…

Believes they represent the will of the electorate.

Sufficiently so to override Charter rights.

I think I am still running on adrenaline. It has been a whirlwind of a 90 day campaign.
But it is you, Albertans, who shined.

Yes, we received nearly half a million signatures, but we also built a #ForeverCanadian movement, a community.

Thank you!

I’m going to sleep tonight with a renewed confidence in Albertans, my long-time friends and new #ForeverCanadian troopers whom I met over the last 90 days. Friends, together we got this. Canada’s in safe hands.

Then, I get home, and my daughter is taking over the torch. Yes!!!

Meanwhile in #YYC, just off the Deerfoot…

With her decision to strip teachers of their fundamental democratic rights, Danielle Smith has awakened a sleeping giant. Alberta unions are now united in one purpose: topple the UCP. Organizing a towards a general strike will be part of our strategy to make it happen.

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

European media closely follow Alberta’s separatist chatter. This has negative impact on investment confidence and it compromises Canada’s geopolitical standing.

Separatism only serves foreign interests.

The notwithstanding clause should never be used to subvert democracy and the rule of law.

This is why clear guardrails and guidelines must be instituted.

[Don Braid @DonBraid]

An appalling, unjust, law drives teachers back to work. The most dangerous precedent Alberta has seen In many years. Column.

Don Getty on the golf course as the Principal Group collapses. Jason Kenney drinking at the Sky Palace during COVID. Danielle Smith in the airport lounge while taking away teachers charter rights.

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

456,365 #ForeverCanadian signatures (plus few dozen last minute arrivals). I’m told it’s the biggest petition in Canada’s history.

None of this would happen if not for thousands of volunteers and your love for Canada.🇨🇦

Thank you! This is Alberta’s and Canada’s victory.

[Hon. Thomas A. Lukaszuk @LukaszukAB]

It is not often that you catch three former deputy premiers at the same time. Hon. Shirley McClellan, Hon. Jim Horsman and I, served with all seven Progressive Conservative premiers.

Today, all three of us support the #ForeverCanadian movement.

Pay the teachers.

Properly fund public education and classroom supports.

End all public funding for private schools.

[Andrew Knack @AndrewKnack]

There’s no question — people are struggling. Poverty and homelessness affect us all, and Edmontonians are rightfully frustrated with the cost of provincial inaction.

We need every level of government at the table. But let’s be clear: jurisdiction can’t be an excuse when lives are at stake. People are not political footballs.

There are proven, cost-effective, evidence-based solutions that save both money and lives — and we can’t wait another moment to act.

As your mayor, I’ll bring together governments, non-profits, Indigenous leaders and knowledge keepers, faith communities, and citizens from across our city to do what Edmonton does best — work together to build a city where everyone can thrive.

Interesting poll, just received...

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