When California was on fire, Canada didn’t bitch and complain. Instead Quebec sent a fleet of Super Scoopers. And we are always ready to help when called upon — that’s just what Canadians do. ✌️

Waiting for a perfect candidate is how you end up going nowhere. Or worse, end up with someone dangerous. Voting isn’t romance, it’s transit. You’re not marrying them, you’re choosing a direction. Pick the one that gets you closest. Progress beats perfection every time.
White text on a red background reads: “Time to remember the best voting advice I have heard - Voting isn’t marriage - it’s public transport. You are not waiting for ‘the one’ who is absolutely perfect. You are getting the bus. And if there isn’t one going exactly to your destination, you don’t stay at home and sulk - you take the one going closest to where you want to be.”

LOLOLOLLLL I’m dying. Mitch Sylvestre (the guy behind the separation petition) claims someone left a bullet as a THREAT at his business. He calls the RCMP. “RCMP said investigators found that the item was a pen that resembled a bullet.” A PEN. THAT YOU NEED TO SIGN A PETITION. What an idiot.

📌NOTE: Last week, Trump depicted Barack & Michelle Obama as apes. It was grotesque racism in its rawest, ugliest, most vile form. It would have ended any other presidency. Eight days later, it has all but been forgotten. That is sinful and enabling pure, unadulterated hate. Don’t let this happen.

A helpful clarification from @elections.ab.ca has been added to their website. PLEASE share this information widely and help us battle myths and worries that are perpetuating social media. www.elections.ab.ca/recall-initi... #ableg #abpoli #yyc #yeg #OperationTotalRecall
If I sign the petition, wlill my personal information be made public?

The Recall Act requires petition documents be made available for public inspection for one year from the time it is filed or submitted. This applies to notices of intent, applications, and CFO documentation. Residential address and contact information (phone or email) must be obscured from public inspection. Individuals who ask to view copies of citizen initiative documentation are required to sign a declaration stating the information viewed will not be used except as permitted under the Recall Act.

Important: This does NOT include petition signature sheets. Signature sheets will not be made available for viewing, publishing, copying, or made otherwise available to anyone. Only the petition proponent and their team and Elections Alberta staff may view the signature sheets for the purposes outlined in the Act. (Recall Act section 45(3)). This means no one else will be able to see the names, contact information, or signatures of anyone signing a petition.

I think many of us are guilty of thinking of government service systems (e.g. healthcare, CRA) only as a group of people and we don't give enough thought to all the flawed processes that make up the systems so I'm not sure how letting people go from systems with flawed processes saves us anything.

Trump: "NATO has treated the United States very badly. We've never asked for anything. We've never got anything." Tell that to the families of 850 soldiers from 19 non-US NATO countries who died fighting to defend the United States in Afghanistan - the only occasion Article 5 was ever triggered.
