Disagree with the article's position that AB needs pipeline investment; AB actually needs to modernise and diversify the economy, including renewables.
Agree 100% that Marlaina's support for separatism is a disaster, much like everything the UCP does.

Everywhere across Canada, people are struggling.
Over 10% of us live in poverty. That's unacceptable.
A Guaranteed Livable Basic Income paired with a wealth tax are the actions to address income inequality we desperately need.

Really bad journalism from Wallis Snowdon, referring to Israel's human rights violations as "alleged," 5 months after the ICJ confirmed that Israel is perpetrating genocide.

"Immigration policy can't be judged by population projections alone."
PBO report on Liberal immigration cuts misses the real impact on families, healthcare and economy. We need evidence-based planning, not sudden reversals that fuel anti-immigrant sentiment.

Graphic: "Email your MP to Protect the Right to Strike"
This Spring, MPs will debate my #BillC247 to repeal Section 107 and protect the right to strike.
This is our chance to tell the Liberal government: enough with the unconstitutional strike breaking.

PM Mark Carney says "the power of the less powerful starts with honesty."
If he’s honest, he’ll admit that Canada’s arms loophole is a "moral blindness." Yet today, his Minister claimed human rights oversight would “decimate” industry.
The HANSARD doesn't lie. 👇

But this was today's vote against the Right to Food motion from @seanorr.bsky.social which merely proposed to study the feasibility of using City-owned land for a community grocery store.
Election Day is October 17th.

As a born/raised Canadian, you can say "we." 🖤🖤
I agree, I don't hate all people in the states, just the fascists.
Thank you for what you're doing and trying to do for students. A functional government would see the value in this.
My mum retired from teaching in AB in the early 2000s, and at the time she left, the disrespect from the gov't and parents (she taught in a wealthy neighbourhood) was staggering. I'm so sad that this has only got worse. No education = no future.

"[U]ndisclosed in the study, is that lead author Dr. Nathaniel Day has donated over $2,500 to the United Conservative Party."
"[T]en of the eleven study authors are directly employed by the government."
The UCP is hell-bent on killing its own constituents and covering it with bad science.

Do you know that Spain 🇪🇸 unlike Canada 🇨🇦, refused to spend the 5% increase Trump demanded of NATO countries and there was no consequence. It refused because they believed rightly that money was best used at home. Mark Carney immediately handed all of our money over. #cdnpoli
Huge thanks to @lucymaloney.bsky.social and @seanorr.bsky.social who brought a motion to fund Car Free Day and prevent its cancellation! And kudos to all of council for passing this unanimously. We will see you there!

Warren Driechel claims he went to Israel to learn about how to build community and trust, including with Muslims.
HE WENT FIVE MONTHS AFTER THE ICJ OFFICIALLY RECOGNISED ISRAEL'S GENOCIDE.
He needs to get fired. #FireDriechel #DriechelResign

Late last year, a white supremacist dating platform was hacked and its users leaked. One of those users is Royal Canadian Air Force Major Tristan Armstrong, who CAHN has linked to thousands of posts made on far-right forums between 2019 and 2024.

The U.S. and Israeli bombardment of Iran is a reckless escalation that risks a catastrophic regional conflict. 🕊️🌍
I’m calling on the Prime Minister to condemn these attacks and ensure Canada is not complicit through arms exports. 🚫🔫

When it comes to upholding international law, it seems like Prime Minister Carney can’t make up his mind. (1/2)
The issue is not whether we trust the US; it’s whether Canada exercises its own sovereignty to assess human rights risks. 🇨🇦⚖️
I’m urging all MPs to look at the facts and vote to close the arms export loophole this Wednesday.

Sewage flowing into communities, into homes!
Sewage should be returned to the toilet where it was flushed!
I borrowed the following,
"As global attention shifts to the war with Iran, settler violence in the occupied West Bank continues to escalate"(PalTimes News) #WestBank #Settlers
"[Carney's support] moves from passive silence to active endorsement. By explicitly backing ... “US-Israeli” military action, Carney abandoned even the pretense of defending a rules-based international order. His Davos rhetoric about international law is now exposed as purely performative..."
