I remain concerned that the premier will use any potential problems on referendum day/on Elections Alberta's part to justify *another* referendum -- one that would presumably keep the separatists off her back for a little while longer. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/09/17/o...

Danielle Smith is sowing the seeds of a democratic legitimacy crisis

Forget about banning American imports. In Alberta, the government is actively importing as many aspects of their political culture as possible. The latest: election denialism.

Danielle Smith appearing at an event with Tamara Lich. Because when you’re trying to project “responsible provincial leadership,” obviously the next step is contributing to convoy nostalgia and supporting criminals. Every day Smith shows us who she really is❕ Vote NO to the 9️⃣Smith must RESIGN

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. 👎

‼️ Alberta separatists are clearly MAGA north ‼️ Same hate. Same rage. Same lies. Same ignoring of facts, science, and morality. Same lack of shame...👇 "...separatists have gone to D.C. offering fresh water and oil in exchange for American support..." www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic...,

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

The Building Canada Strong Act gives us the tools to build faster and build better. To diversify markets and strengthen our economy - while ensuring the high environmental and social standards Canadians expect.

Despite Conservative claims, there are not 500 projects “waiting for permits”. We're building more, we're building faster, and we're doing that while maintaining high environmental and social standards. Making things up is not how you hold government to account.

Do we have confidence that Elections Alberta can and will handle this (or any) volume of mail-in ballots accurately and correctly? And in good time?

After nearly two years of economic failure and broken promises, JD Vance’s midterm pitch these closing weeks is “give us another chance.” The American people cannot afford another round of this - and the good news is we don’t have to.

#ableg trivia: Calgary-Shaw tonight was only the second time ever that the Alberta NDP picked up a seat in a by-election. The first was Pincher Creek-Crowsnest(!) in 1966.

Of the 12 seats the UCP won in Calgary last election, only two of them were won by bigger margins than Shaw, which the NDP flipped in tonight’s prereferendum by-election. This result could make many Calgary cabinet ministers nervous.
