The threat is real. Alberta separatists are working hand in hand with US Republicans to break our country apart. Not voting is not an option. Canada needs your vote. #ForeverCanadian #ableg #cdnpoli

I try not to think in polarizing terms. I know I shouldn't add to the rage bait. I get that everyone has different experiences that inform their positions. I should listen. Learn. But the hateful lies, legitimized by the UCP, fuelling the Alberta separatists movement? Nope. 👎

The elephant in the room
Alberta separatists have gone to D.C. offering fresh water and oil in exchange for American support – and Republican operatives have provided tactical assistance inside the province

With this monopolized media empire comes not just size but unprecedented power. The power to throw workers under the bus. The power to price-gouge because consumers have few alternatives. The power to decide which stories get told, but more importantly, which stories DON'T get told.
