Over the weekend Danielle Smith cried over pipelines and gas revenues. She's never shed a tear over orchestrating the collapse of Alberta's healthcare system and the preventable deaths that have happened under her watch. Odious. #yyc #yeg #cdnpoli #abpoli

Did you know? Alberta receives federal funding to support health care, education, and social services for each person living in our province. These federal transfers are calculated on a per capita basis, and *include* both permanent and non-permanent residents.

With the NDP win in Calgary-Shaw, expect lying Dani to follow through with the Republic-esque gerrymandering of the city districts to ensure UCP wins next election. Conservatives cheat for power and they'll get away with it. Once it goes through changing it back is gonna be near impossible. #abpoli

Last week, Smith posted on social media that “For every $1 of taxes a guest worker generates, taxpayers are covering $10 in services.” While this figure might ring true for many, it is far from accurate. I fact-checked Smith’s claims in my latest for @thetyee.ca

Listen, I fully expected Carney to court the right. It's a ploy to decimate the loser Conservatives. It will make for a comfortable dynasty. But going full colonial denial praising John A MacD wasn't in my bingo card. Cue Liberal-stans and their "unprecedented times" excuses. #cdnpoli

In a functioning and free democracy it's important to REDUCE barriers to participation. Conservatives, however, do the opposite. Their playbook is to increase BARRIERS to democracy, and every barrier implemented is a move towards authoritarianism. This happens to ensure conservatives retain POWER.

Attended a writing panel with 4 white folks speaking on fascism. It pivoted to praise TJ Klune, nods all around, crowd well pleased. What a miss. TJ Klune's source material is the '60s Scoop. A deeply racist and painful legacy in Canadian history. He doesn't care (nor do the readers). 🙄 #booksky

Late in May, an ambitious master plan for the Confluence, or the 17-hectare park formerly known as Fort Calgary, was unveiled. An Indigenous-led gathering place, however, didn’t make the cut—why? In my latest for @thetyee.ca i write about the systemic inequalities shaping our city.

New from me! Calgary’s housing strategy, adopted in 2023, aims to enable an annual 3,000 non-market homes, but the city is still far from meeting this target. A non-market housing project a decade in the making shows some of the factors delaying the construction of non-market homes.
