The UCP's hidden tax plan is becoming more apparent - despite their attempts to HIDE IT! It will massively impact the wealth of Alberta's business owners, employees, seniors, and those requiring medical care 1/5

At the Rideau Club, I argued that Alberta is "the jilted lover of Confederation: a partner who feels under-appreciated and misunderstood, yet yearns for a closer relationship with the rest of Canada. We should approach the upcoming referendum with that in mind." 🔗 open.substack.com/pub/drjaredw...

The UCP put out a statement claiming a special committee had voted to recommend a referendum question for this October, offering Albertans a choice on whether to remain in Canada. But the release went out while the committee was still meeting and hadn’t actually finalized anything.

I rose today to confront Bill C-9, the Combatting Hate Act. How do we push back against the rising tide of hate, without sacrificing civil liberties? I have no easy answers. But in this speech, I wrestle with the questions. It's not a comfortable listen. It's not meant to be. #cdnpoli #Alberta #C9

There is a reason that we do not have MLAs decide on electoral boundaries. Tossing out the Electoral Boundaries Commission and replacing it with a UCP-dominated committee is not just a bad idea. It is really bad for democracy. Ask the US, ask Hungary. This is not normal!

It is not the increase from 89 to 91 that is problematic. It is this part of the motion. Throwing out the Electoral Boundaries Commission (and all of their work) and instead creating a new committee of MLAs with a new advisory panel.

Air Canada must have realized they fucked up because CUPE says the company has returned to the bargaining, despite previously saying it wouldn’t negotiate until flight attendants were back on the job. www.ctvnews.ca/canada/artic...

The union representing Air Canada’s flight attendants said they are currently in meetings with the airline.

In a Facebook post Monday evening, the Air Canada Component of CUPE wrote the airline reached out to them earlier in the day and the two sides “moved forward” in their attempts to reach a deal.

Alberta has a government that would rather: 1. Pay $80M for Turkish Tylenol ($49M still unaccounted for) 2. Beat the record for measles cases set in 1986, 879 (government website) cases reported since March. 3. Clog up our already overworked, understaffed hospitals with PREVENTABLE ILLNESS.
