As a public sector employee I would like to point out:
1) We earn our pensions.
2) EVERYONE should have a pension, no seniors should live in poverty. If this is an us vs them, it’s not public vs private, it’s UCP vs Albertans.

NEW from me in @TheTyee:
I bought a ticket to attend what was until recently known as the Premier’s Christian Summit. The night before, I got a call saying I was getting deregistered and refunded with no explanation.
I went down to Red Deer anyway.
Can't wait to send my kids to Charlie Kirk Elementary, where the teachers will be prohibited from explaining who the school is named after.

Israel is explicitly warning Christian and Druze residents in southern Lebanon not to hide Muslim residents among them as their forces advance.
Not a peep from Sheryl Sandberg.
This piece of writing is insane.
In an article that alleges that "Jews are being purged from public life" Brown doesn't name a single Jewish person who has lost their job or public role, and then blames @readthemaple for the most recent shootings at Toronto synagogues.
oil production is at record highs. the dividends for suncor/cnrl have never been higher. the feds spent $35 billion on a pipeline to make these people happy.
it's never enough, if it rained fucking diamonds these people would complain about their trucks getting scratched.
Every single patient on ventilators in the entire of Cuba just died overnight because of the US blockade. The US is a terrorist regime destroying the world to rule over the ashes. It must be stopped.
in december 2024, before the illegal ai facial recognition pilot was announced, the eps told the world, in a good news style press release, that they were partnering with a local firm that employs autistic people to edit body cam footage. https://t.co/Gfapgy89VF
the eps is running an ai facial recognition pilot that very likely violates albertan privacy law. they did not check in with alberta's privacy commissioner before doing it. she said they had to, the police say they don't. but it gets worse. https://t.co/SmS02vWpkR
axon makes tasers. but they also make bodycams and they just recently got a $16 million contract for body cams with the EPs because the UCP mandated that police have them. but it gets worse. https://t.co/SmS02vWpkR
People think I’m being alarmist when I say they are trying to make you dumb. They feel entitled to control how and to what extent you can access knowledge. They send their kids to tech-free schools while ensuring public school kids can’t read. They want you illiterate.
Fuck Keir Starmer
- A man who couldn't get us cancelled from Glasto
- A man who couldn't beat us in court
- A man who has destroyed the Labour Party
- A man whose government supports war criminals in Israel with weapons and intelligence
It's actually incredible that Israel does genocide for 2 years and murders people across the Middle East, with help from the US who then jumps in to do war on Iran, and Canadians' taxes are spent to boost security at both of their embassies.
