While they’re at it, why don’t the Conservative MP’s question why there leader still doesn’t have security clearance after all this time?

Happy Canada Day! A great article from the @sprawlcalgary.bsky.social. We owe a lot to this Calgary-born gentleman who designed our beautiful and universally recognized flag. www.sprawlcalgary.com/canadian-fla...

This includes Canadians within their own country, especially certain provincial politicians.

Succinct common sense, but Rob Anderson would probably call it hysterical fear-mongering.

Bruce Fanjoy has launched a petition to require all federal party leaders to obtain and maintain top security clearance. It's open for a couple of months. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en...

Alberta’s Bill 11 threatens universal public healthcare across Canada. It replaces universal care with a two-tier system. This means longer waits, higher costs for everyone, and weaker public healthcare. The federal government must act. notwotier.ca/canadahealth... #ableg #abpoli #canpoli

The party whose leader, who aspires to be prime minister, refuses to get security clearance insists that children of Canadian citizens get it to qualify for citizenship.

Absolutely chilling though unsurprising in present day Alberta. The UCP reveals their insecurity snd the Herald their cowardice.

Danielle Smith wants our ID’s to indicate Canadian citizenship, yet she bends over backwards to appease those who would willfully RENOUNCE this cherished citizenship by promoting an independent Alberta.

Why does the Calgary @cbcnews-rss.bsky.social continually run stories about the Alberta NDP slipping in the polls but hardly ever reports on the many UCP scandals, such as the corruption in the AHS, the results of the APP survey which they tried to suppress, their new Covid vaccine policy, etc?

“Alberta didn’t start this fight,” says Danielle Smith. That’s like Trump saying that Zelensky started the war in Ukraine.

What the @albertandp.ca needs now is an army of Bruce Fanjoys knocking on every door our province for the next two years. With dedication and persistence, I believe it’s doable! And necessary!

I see that Danielle Smith is enthusiastically applauding Carney’s promptly calling a by-election to enable PP to regain a seat in the House of Commons. Meanwhile, she hasn’t called a by-election since Rachel Notley vacated her seat in December. I wonder why?

Susan Tyrrell @susantyrrell.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
As a volunteer scrutineer, I can certainly attest to this. Very dedicated election workers who treat our votes with the utmost care & respect. Also, a volunteer with English conversation programs, I’m reminded of how fortunate we are to live in a true democracy where voting matters!

Susan Tyrrell @susantyrrell.bsky.social · 29/04/2025
My sentiments exactly. I’m relieved not to have PP as my PM but disappointed that we may not have a Liberal majority government to see us through these difficult times. Also disappointed that most of Albertans continued to vote as sheep.

According to Pierre Poilievre during a campaign stop in Hamilton on Wednesday: "Public spaces must be safe for everyone. We will take back our streets and restore order in our communities." Funny that! He was all for encouraging a massive truck blockade in Ottawa not all that long ago! HYPOCRITE!

This is indeed Trumpish. No respect for education or expertise. “Skill” likely means political loyalties.

I know some ppl can ignore or brush off idiots who drive around with “F@ck Trudeau/Carney” on their cars or anti vaxx stuff. Or who scream profanities at Carney or voters in line to vote. But it effects me. My stomach tenses. I feel sick, scared, angry. Ppl mock politeness but I value it.

Yes! Let’s have some REAL change in Calgary Centre - a voice in government instead of a tiresome and ineffective opposition backbencher - something Calgarians too often settle for. Support @lindsayluhnauyyc.bsky.social!

What you saw last night was Poilievre on his best behaviour He lied repeatedly, he over talked the other leaders, and he offered little more than the same 3-4 talking points and slogans And that is him at his best

Poillievre can disavow responsibility for the Rebel News hooligans, but it’s his rage farming that has gotten us here. Look inside yourself, Conservatives, regardless of your policy preferences. You can’t believe this is what Canada needs right now. He’s not prime minister material.

It’s time for Calgary to have more Liberal representation in Ottawa. My name is Lindsay Luhnau, and I am running to be the next Liberal Member of Parliament for Calgary Centre. Mark Carney is the right choice for Prime Minister, and I'm proud to be on his team. 🇨🇦

I choose Mark Carney and his team. Folks, picture any one of Pierre’s caucus, just close your eyes, picture Cooper Ferrari Scheer Lewis Jivani Lantsman et al. Gives one concern right. None of these folks have any experience at running an economically viable country. In plain words, disaster.

Just a quick heads up everyone. Lots of like- minded people here on Bluesky, but don't presume this is indicative of all Canadians. Cons still have strong support across the country. Media heavily leans to the right. Election interference from many fronts, including US. DO NOT TRUST THE POLLS. VOTE!
