Between the leak of 3 million Albertans' private voter data, documented foreign interference, and issues with issuing the ballots continuing the referendum grows harder to justify daily. Yet not a single UCP MLA has a spine to speak out. #abpoli

Question for Albertans: ❓Would you give the Alberta government or an oil company full access to your bank accounts❓ If you condone underfunding of the orphan levy, that’s what you have effectively done. That’s why friends, colleagues I took action and went public:

Dear rest of Canada, In Alberta, we are fighting our own fascism. Danielle Smith and the UCP forge ahead with ideology-based decisions regardless of public input. With the USA stuff on top, it's exhausting. We need all Canadians to fight with us. Amplify unity posts, call out the separatists. A fracture in Canadian unity is what foreign interests want and it WILL affect you. Please be an "Alberta is Canadian" ally.

There are 1.6 million households in Alberta. If this report is correct, the Meta project could add up to $736 million each year in extra power costs for Alberta families. Danielle Smith and the UCP have a lot to explain about why they think this is a good deal amid an affordability crisis.
edmontonjournal.com
New report says Alberta power prices could spike because of Meta’s data centre. The company disputes the claim
Meta will draw power for years before its gas plant is built prices rise until it does.

@lauriedw.bsky.social made this comment at the #Redwater townhall. Well done! #abpoli
Let’s look at the track record of the UCP government:

1.	Polls have continually showed that Albertans want this government to prohibit by law any and all new coal mining activities. The UCP continue to allow expansion of mines and the diversion of water from Alberta’s watershed.

2.	As of March 31, there were 4200 orphan wells in inventory, this has jumped to 7302 wells in July. An annual levy on the companies is 11% of the estimated current burden. The underpayment is currently 1.7 billion.

Outstanding questions have not been answered adequately 
Regulations have not been put in place

Given this track record, I ask everyone in this room, can we trust that the UCP will put our interests before corporations?

TELUS Health Advertising $3000 MRIs to Albertans is the Latest Example of Shameless Two-Tier Profiteering
EDMONTON — With the recent passing of Bill 29 in the spring session permitting private-pay diagnostic services without referral, TELUS Health hasn’t wasted any time capitalizing on their chance to charge Albertans directly out-of-pocket for diagnostic testing. A promotional email sent on June 15 advertises “Total Body MRIs Starting at $2995,” available at their TELUS Health SKY Clinic in Calgary. This is just one of many products on offer at TELUS Health Care Centres in Alberta.
