The nurse who took my blood pressure at the doctor today complimented my tattoos and said the world needs more whimsy, so I immediately recruited her to become an oatmeal socialist.

Thread. Read it all! Conclusion:

"It's all part of the same playbook the UCP has put in action since 2019.

Don't buy it, and don't let media buy it. They are manufacturing consent for murderous policy. "

Mark Carney’s Liberals just got another floor-crosser, this time from the NDP: Nunavut MP Lori Idlout. Liberals now only need to win 2/3 byelections on April 13 to get majority.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
March 10, 2026

Don Davies statement 

NDP Leader Don Davies issued the following statement:

"We're very disappointed that Lori Idlout has decided to join the Liberal caucus.

The position of the New Democrats on floor crossing is longstanding and clear.  We believe that when someone rejects the decision of their electors and wants to join another party, they should put that decision to their voters.

In a democracy, something as important as the choice of party representation in Parliament must always remain with our constituents. We believe that should happen here."

"Treaties are recognized in international law and any attempt to override them is a violation of the original agreements made between First Nations and the Crown,” the release said."

Dumping tailings would never be allowed if it was Calgary's water supply at risk. The only reason this is even considered is because colonial governments (AB & CAD) think Indigenous lives are disposable & because we refuse to make companies pay to cleanup their mess properly. #ABLeg #ABPoli #CDNPoli

Alberta NDP Leader introduces Motion of Non-Confidence following Historic First Nations' Unanimous Vote Engaging Albertans to build an economy for the future.

Danielle Smith and the UCP government have fundamentally damaged our foundational relationship with Indigenous peoples.

The historic and unprecedented vote of non-confidence in this government at the Assembly of First Nations is proof of this.
