The speed and ferocity of the conservative response to Cowboy’s having to lower the volume at midnight on a Tuesday is truly something to behold. Now imagine if the UCP cared that much about wait time in Emergency Rooms. #ableg

Danielle Smith’s separatist referendum puts us all at risk. We will not stand by and let the extremists who run the Premier also run this province. We’re going to stand up and fight. For our home. For Alberta. For Canada. And with your help, we WILL win. Join us: ForAlbertaForCanada.ca

It’s time for Smith to let the separatists down, act in the interest of Albertans, and cancel the referendum. Smith had a way out - she changed the legislation for the separatists four times - she could definitely claim to have done her best and finally walk away.

Today in QP the Premier said she’s protecting teachers from violence in schools by removing the word welcoming. Because that is definitely the problem, not the overcrowded classrooms or lack if supports. They’re too welcoming. #ableg

This is completely accurate. She is so desperate for a fight she’ll try anything - maybe there’s a Bigfoot movie in need of some targeting. #ableg

Smith pretty cheerfully demonized teachers in the fall… and doctors before that. And anyone with a disability, immigrants, people who get vaccinated… pretty long list actually. Seems like maybe it’s less about the demonizing part, and more about the separatist part. #ableg

Smith says caucus members can sign any petition they want to, including on separation
Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says members of her caucus can sign whatever petitions they want to, including one pushing for a referendum on the province’s independence from Canada.

A group of Camrose lawyers, including two former conservative Attorneys General, are speaking out against the UCP’s moves towards autocracy. A government that tramples rights and makes special rules for thier friends is not a partisan issue. #ableg

A question I keep hearing from folks across Canada is pretty simple: “What the heck is going on in Alberta?” It’s a fair question, given all the headlines lately. Separatism is a real threat, and it’s time for Canada, politicians and citizens alike, to act.

We need more beds, but a hospital bed is not just a physical space with a bed in it - it’s people - nurses, doctors, and other professionals. The UCP claim they are going to “fix the system,” but they can’t or won’t understand this basic fact, so they fail. 1/2 #ableg

Nothing says “we’re proud of our work and happy to run on our record” quite like being so scared of the electorate you prohibit anyone else from using the word “conservative.” 🙄 I know plenty of conservatives who don’t feel the UCP represents them. #ableg

Wages not keeping up with costs, so they struggle to afford the basics, is the number one issue for most folks - the UCP has not plan to do anything, except vote against our ideas. Today the UCP voted against tip protection and raising the lowest minimum wage in the country. #ableg

If you are struggling right now you aren’t alone, costs are soaring and wages aren’t keeping up. Healthcare and education are in chaos. Where are the UCP? Focused on expensive gifts for themselves and pandering to separatists. We all deserve better, and we can get it, together. 🧡 #ableg

Today, when asked about increased crime and social disorder on our streets, Minister Nixon called it a “fake crisis” and sort of implied the NDP are making it up. Are these guys even living in our province? #ableg

This morning the UCP refused to give Elections Alberta the resources to verify a recall petition. This is their own legislation. Basically they are only “pro democracy” until the people actually use the power… so not actually pro democracy at all. #ableg

The UCP could have avoided this strike. They could have addressed valid concerns about classroom conditions. They didn’t. Because it’s not about what’s best for kids. For the UCP it’s about winning - and not everyone winning - just them winning, and more importantly someone else losing. #ableg

Alberta has the lowest minimum wage in the country. Alberta has the highest youth unemployment in the country. This is a very strong argument AGAINST the idea that raising the minimum wage increases youth unemployment. Why did Smith say the opposite - she is lying or incompetent. #AbLeg

The UCP is willing to spend millions of dollars A DAY to fight against better classroom conditions. How many EAs could they hire a year for one week of spending on this - because I bet it’s more than the 1500 EAs they offered. Which means this isn’t about budget -it’s about power and spite. #AbLeg

The Justice Minister committed the interim report would be public - to be clear, the report will be woefully insufficient since the UCP control the evidence. The UCP will still hide it. They are the most secretive government in history - probably because the know they should be ashamed. #AbLeg

In a few short days we will have the lowest minimum wage in the country. Minimum wage hasn’t gone up in 7 years - just look what cost of living has done in that time. We’re in a crisis. We deserve a government that acts. #ableg

Straw Man: Q: Are you using the not withstanding clause to prevent girls playing sports and outlaw life saving puberty blockers? Smith: We should use it to prevent kids being sterilized. But since no one is doing that or arguing for it, do you think it’s right to use it in this case? #AbLeg

Classrooms are massively overcrowded, students lack EA support, schools are bursting at the seams. UCP’s solution: 1) book ban 2) smear campaign against teachers I have to wonder, how many EAs would this add campaign have paid for? #AbLeg

Our Premier is absurd. “I didn’t want them to enforce the law the way I wrote it, and they should have known that” should be disqualifying for any legislator. This isn’t left-right anymore, it’s a question of basic competence. #AbLeg

Once again, the UCP's attempts to distract from their horrific record have backfired. Their own incompetence and inability to manage complex files have led to wasted time, wasted money, and unneeded stress. Albertans deserve better. Read my full statement on their book ban 'pause' ⬇️

I love being Canadian - and the verdict is in from Calgary-Mountain View, they agree. Folks are super concerned about the economic damage done to Montreal by the Quebec referendum. Montreal was the economic engine, not anymore. I don’t want the same for Calgary. #AbLeg
