Today is the International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression. For Ukrainians, this is a painful reality that has become part of everyday life.
Since 2022 alone, Russia has killed 707 Ukrainian children, injured 2,548, and left 2,318 missing. The youngest victim was just two days old - born and killed in a maternity hospital.
These figures may be far higher, as the full truth about what has happened in the temporarily occupied territories remains unknown. In addition, at least 20,470 Ukrainian children have been deported to Russia or forcibly displaced.
Eternal memory to all the children whose lives have been taken by Russia's aggression...
"Conservative politicians like Pierre Poilievre have spent the last decade nurturing the resentments of Albertans towards Ottawa. Now, they need to start challenging the grievances they've deliberately cultivated." https://t.co/9LGj2m9z98
“Only 10 UCP MLAs have actually come out and publicly stated that they will be voting to remain in Canada,” Pancholi told media. “Seventy-five per cent are unwilling to publicly say which option they are voting for …”

39 percent of Albertans say they would leave the province if it became an independent country. Another 19 percent say they would think seriously about it. The recklessness of our Premier for facilitating this referendum is truly breathtaking. #FightBackNow https://t.co/wkXPbLnlDN
“More than four months after pledging that emergency physicians would soon begin monitoring patients in crowded waiting rooms for health crises, the Alberta government’s promised triage liaison physicians aren’t yet on the job.”

She is a separatist. The lengths she had Forever Canada go versus bending the rules and now looking past breaking the law for her base is gobsmacking. #UCPFail
Highest paid MLAs in Ca
While they were digging us into a $9.4B hole…they voted to for:
1. 14% housing increase
2. Add 2% for a raise
3. 6 mo salary parachute
4. $1M added to caucus budget
5. $6K added to constituency offices
They don’t even pay for a cup of coffee, you do.

One of Smith’s most BRAZEN conflicts of interest
The Ockeys’ private school foundation already got ~$2M from taxpayers this year
Now they’re lobbying her directly for millions MORE for a new school and rec centre.
This isn’t just “great convo”
It’s a MAJOR conflict 😳
Are we done yet? Because this is the lowest of the lows.
Two words to describe what has been going on re: ADAP, The Alex, women shelters and so many more.
Fucking brutal.
Cruel is also another way to describe it.
But let’s spend millions on a non binding referendum, eh?

You are so right about her needing to resign.
However she has neither the integrity or ethics to resign, it’s all about power and control for the totalitarian, authoritarian dictator.
She’ll have to be removed kicking and screaming, she has zero self awareness.
Albertans deserve to know exactly what some of the leading voices behind separation are advocating: mandatory military service, citizenship based on birthplace, and a vision of society that belongs in the past.
At a time when Calgary is attracting talent, investment, and opportunity from across Canada and around the world, the provincial referendum decision is giving oxygen to a movement that creates uncertainty, division, and risk.
Our city needs more homes, more jobs, more infrastructure, and stronger ties with the rest of Canada and the world. Instead, we're being dragged into a debate that threatens investment, undermines confidence, and distracts from the real challenges facing Albertans.
Calgary's future is as a growing, confident Canadian city. We must be focused on building that future, not legitimizing a movement that puts it at risk.
"This will require 60,000 to 90,000 election officers to administer and count the referendum”
“If the staffing level needed is at the higher end of the range, it would be enough to almost fill Edmonton's Commonwealth Stadium twice over.”

The Wildrose part of the UCP was always Dani’s…
The extreme elements now frothing were brought in by Dani for her leadership…
Papering over the conspiracy theorists with old stock PC’s won’t solve the problem.
The problem is a leader who panders anyone.

‘We Want to See It Win in Coutts’: Video Shows Danielle Smith Endorsing Illegal Convoy Blockade
Remember this Danielle? Now you want Albertans to believe you don’t support separatism?
