@RachelNotley Alliances with Singh, Trudeau, Jean, Union Bosses, Extinction Rebellion ... and now you claim Albertans. How do you keep track?
Ah, if it means a selfie with Singh and Trudeau, you'll betray our province and everything you believe in to get your BEST photo op "deal"

@emmadeady@XR_YYC Though it is important to remember that you don't need a brand to do direct action. You can just get some pals together and just do it. The XR strategy of mass arrest is not realistic in Alberta, and a strategy of direct action is better accomplished anonymously.
@emmadeady@XR_YYC Unfortunately, this is basically a zombie account run by a disgruntled climate activist. XREdmonton is not currently active. If you'd like to change that send me a DM and we can get you connected to the infrastructure we still have in place.+
The Australien Government has made an ad about the policies it's taking to the #COP26 UN Climate Summit in Glasgow, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

It shouldn't be controversial to state that an economic system designed to maximise short-term financial profit regardless of the public good may not be equipped to deal with a crisis that can only be managed with long-term planning for the public good
@xr_cambridge @charlottor Well yeah, if this tweeter was looking for a movement with ideological purity they would not have joined XR. The point was it's wrong to assume any given loon is an infiltrator, given the permissive organising structure of XR.
Furthermore, landlording must be destroyed.
“When those in positions of power are incapable, it is the responsibility of the people to step up. We are in the greatest crisis humanity has ever faced and Extinction Rebellion are calling for crisis talks. We say "come to the table"”
Charlie Waterhouse, XR
Last year governments gave fossil fuel companies $181bn in public subsidies. You might think wow that's a lot. In fact it's a record low. This is why XR are demanding governments end all fossil fuel investment now. #ClimateCrisis#ImpossibleRebellion
@neil_mutch @charlottor Not everyone who shows up has had any kind of political education, and some chapters don't even try to do it. Loons are going to join and pick up signs. It happens, it sucks, it's a weakness of how XR organises, but a tradeoff for other strengths.
