Marco Rubio is demanding a raise now that he has to be Secretary of State, President of Venezuela, and the Ayatollah of Iran.
Wherein Smith claims that "newcomers" are costing the province $9 Billion in social programs.
In order for that to be true, every single newcomer would have to be accessing social programs that many don't even have access to.
These are evil misrepresentations.

Yes. Exactly, I’m on BBC. I used to watch CBS and CNN, but since CBS was bought out by oligarchs it’s news looks more like Fox now. I’m sure the pending purchase of CNN will result in the same. By controlling the news the US can keep people in the dark/ misinformed.
How did anyone vote for this guy? He is so spoiled and entitled, that he can’t support people who are not as fortunate? He does not deserve to be a representative of Canada. ‘Hate thy neighbour’ politics has no place here. We have to shut this crap down before we look like the US.
Poilievre's puppet and Vance's best friend, Jamil Jivani is against school lunch programs. #cdnpoli
Apparently hungry children should just starve.
The Maple MAGA Government says let your children starve, they shouldn't be your Daddy!

The provincial government’s search for a major private investor to build a pipeline to the West Coast is reportedly stalled by the uncertainty surrounding a potential separatism referendum this fall.
Sorry the USA is ONLY $36 trillion in debt.
Expected to hit $59 trillion in under 10 years.
Albertans wanting to join the USA are total morons.
All of Albertas Oil would NOT even pay off one year of interest payments.
The USA debt is an unreal number and can never be paid back.
Since October, federal courts have ruled more than 4,400 times that ICE is illegally jailing immigrants.
Now the agency wants to spend $38B to turn warehouses across the country into detention camps.
Remember that some of Trump's biggest supporters are private prison companies running these camps.
There is patriotism and patridiotism.
“Nationalism is not to be confused with patriotism. Both words are normally used in so vague a way that any definition is liable to be challenged, but one must draw a distinction between them... "
–George Orwell
"We can have democracy in this country, or we can have great wealth concentrated in the hands of a few, but we can't have both." –Justice Louis Brandeis
Words spoken many years ago that are just as relevant today.
We must continue the fight to get big money out of politics.
Epstein survivor Anouska De Georgiou: The fact that the very people who are meant to lead this country have completely retraumatized us… it’s—I mean—it’s like being raped by the Department of Justice.
Traitor Danielle Smith's journey to becoming a Traitor to Albertan's & 🇨🇦ians was well underway in Feb 2024
We know whose team this guy's on.

Imagine if four years into our war in Iraq we had only occupied 20 percent of it and lost 1.2 million men. Would anyone say the US is winning?
No? Then how in the hell can you say Russia is winning?!
Leading American companies — including Palantir, Deloitte, and private prison giant GEO Group — raked in over $22B from ICE and CBP contracts last year.
Do not forget who is profiting from cruelty and human suffering.
My first remarks since being arrested last night.
🤬🤬 I'm remembering when Kyle Rittenhouse showed up at a protest open carrying an assault rifle, fired on demonstrators, and Republicans called him a hero!
It's time for a truly massive general strike. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/sunday-thought-enough
Love it! Not a lot of happy news these days, PP dropping in the polls qualifies as happy news for me.
We are seeing incredible acts of solidarity today in Minnesota and across the country.
The next days and months and years will require this from us — and demand our courage. Be prepared.
Selling off $100 million in USA treasury’s due to poor government finances. #denmark #USA
Along with all the other messages in Carney's speech the other day, I feel like the subtext for the Home audience (that's us) is to be ready to walk away from CUSMA. And to be ready to start building 72 Saab Gripen jets.
If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate.

I’m just gonna leave this here:
PM Carney: “I take note from the president’s comments. I don’t take direction from it.”
— Mark Carney
Canada’s Prime Minister 🇨🇦
We are living next door to an evil and despotic regime.
There is no peace, no getting along as long as the United States allows this kind of depravity.
Canada must stand up for the rule of law.
People want to have their basic needs met.
They want to be paid a living wage.
They want to stop being nickle and dimed by powerful corporations who control so much of our lives.
They do not want Venezuela.
They do not want Greenland.
They do not want masked thugs terrorizing our communities.
Pierre Poilievre hasn't tweeted a single thing since Carney's speech in Davos on Wednesday and I presume that's because Pierre's been very busy in Davos stalking Trudeau.
