@MargaretAtwood I guess this is my "classic series" book club selection.

@Connolly2pt0 @AmpersandGrey You were truly my favourite voice on the radio! Congratulations on this next step in your journey!

Who teach in these new school buildings? University students are fleeing to business faculties over education. 1 in 3 Alberta teachers will leave their overcrowded & underfunded classrooms. Rome burns as Smith funnels millions to her PRIVATE & charter school friends! #AbEd #ableg

Canadian media need to press him on this. If he actually believes the Nazis were socialists, the public needs to know how wrong he has it.

We hope you tune in tonight for this important discussion on the state of Alberta's public education.

It’s so rare to find a politician that meets the moment. An extraordinary speech for an extraordinary time. American friends, don’t screw this up!

@Sachinettiyil Such a simple dress only makes this beautiful bride shine all the more.

[Karen Polard @kpolard]

@atypicalalbertn Agreed! Absolutely.

[Greg Carabine @GCarabine]

Alberta's teachers deserve an apology, again.

This is massive!

@pancholi_rakhi has dropped out of the NDP Leadership race to throw her support behind @nenshi!

I heard you were bragging about the decrease in pension contribution rates for next Sept.

The decrease has nothing to do with AIMCo. It's the result of ATRF's long-term planning.

Teachers are still waiting to see the savings.

@drdagly So sorry to hear this. Not cool.

[Karen Polard @kpolard]

@Rpolard Absolutely 💯 percent!

And such a lovely pic.!

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

This story just keeps on giving. What could the health care system have done with that $75 million (if that’s even the true cost)? And again, who were the lobbyists here?

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

This is a big deal. I know Albertans are getting used to this government lying to them but it really should be called out every time.

[Karen Polard @kpolard]

@schill_dawg It looks like a beautiful place to gather. Happy Journeys for your folks as they move forward!

[CTV - Ian White @CTVIanWhite]

BREAKING: CTV News has learned the vote recount in Calgary-Acadia is complete and @albertaNDP candidate @DianaBatten_ wins by 25 votes, not 7 as announced on election night. Justice Minister Tyler @shandro is defeated. #abpoli
