Danielle Smith isn’t just picking fights with Ottawa; she’s threatening Alberta’s future. If she wants a referendum on separation, bring it on. Albertans will defeat it. youtube.com/shorts/Exptw...

Everyone deserves a safe, affordable place to call home. But under Danielle Smith and the UCP, that goal is slipping further out of reach: Alberta now has the worst housing affordability in the country. We can change that. 🔽 /1

I was taken by how emotional you seemed when discussing your personal interactions with JD Vance. Disappointment with him? Disappointment with yourself for not seeing the kind of person he was? Whatever the reason, it was the most interesting part of the conversation for me.

This to me is the most frustrating kind of public policy failure. We know what works, we can afford to do it, and we just… don’t.

Here’s the frustrating thing. Canada HAS an evidence based approach to increasing vaccine uptake. It’s called CANVax. But it costs money - money that the UCP wont spend on public healthcarehttps://canvax.ca

Alberta measles cases continue to grow. Most cases are in the south and most cases are unvaccinated people. 10% have been hospitalized. Fortunately no one has died yet, but if this epidemic isn’t controlled someone will likely die soon.

Albertans have good reason to be angry: their real wages are down 10%, their minimum wage is frozen, their inflation is worst in Canada, their health care's at risk. None of that was caused by the rest of Canada. My take in today's @TorontoStar: www.thestar.com/business/opi.... #cdnecon

Danielle Smith said the quiet part out loud: She is putting our country at risk because she is chasing clout with extremists to stay in power. Albertans deserve so much better than this selfish, separatist, power-hungry Premier. youtu.be/W7KWHqcw9p4

The legislation also creates a billing framework so that customers who use hydrogen pay for the costs associated with it. Which is fine, I guess, but I hope people aren’t duped into something expensive and useless because of the hype.

Hydrogen is mostly propaganda on the part of natural gas suppliers. Want to really reduce emissions? Use renewable electricity.

Marlin Schmidt @marlinschmidt.bsky.social · 15/05/2025

We just passed legislation here in Alberta to allow for hydrogen blending in our natural gas distribution system. We in the Opposition suspected this was a gift to incumbent gas suppliers. This interview confirmed that suspicion for me.

Tomorrow’s election, like every election before it, is The Most Important Election Ever. But looking back, which election do you think was the LEAST important? My nominee is the 1979 federal election, which gave Joe Clark a 6 month minority government.

Alberta has 137 confirmed cases of measles, and only 1/6 the population of Texas. That means our rate of measles is higher than Texas’s rate.

Hey Oilers. I hear you battled back in the third period of Game 1 to make a game of it after being down 4-0 in the 2nd period. The thing is, I missed it, cuz as a bandwagon jumper, it’s pretty easy to jump off when things aren’t going well. So please get out to an early lead tonight and stay there.
