Oh, look, racist idiot Frances Widdowson tried to make a "documentary" with a neo-Nazi, and even the far-right propaganda outlet Juno News, which includes white nationalist Keean Bexte, wants nothing to do with her. #abpse #abpoli #cdnpoli #ResidentialSchoolDenial

My letter to President Flanagan re: the removal of equity, diversity, and inclusion against the wishes of GFC, and his decision to pass that judgment through the premier's office before publicly announcing it. #abpoli #abpse
“Emails obtained by CBC through an access to information request show that Flanagan’s newspaper letter was sent by the university’s government relations department to staff at the Ministry of Advanced Education before it was published.” By @emilyawilliams52.bsky.social #AbPSE #AbLeg

First Nations leaders call on universities to ban residential school denialist demonstrations
Residential school denial is genocide denial, which is hate speech. Universities are under no obligations to host hate.

Tapeworms' ability to take juuuussst what it needs from a host may be the key to helping people with autoimmune disorders, according to early research from a UCalgary PhD student. #abpse #calgary
Genocide denial is the most reprehensible intellectual transgression. Only the most abhorrent people engage in genocide denial. Frances Widdowson definitely fits that description. She is an incompetent racist who never should have been hired by my university. Now she peddles lies to fascists. #abpse
There's currently a big debate in Iceland on whether it's acceptable to raise the yearly University tuition to $1500. let's be realistic. free tuition in america sounds nice, but it would cost almost as much as what we give our gestapo
University tuition should be free everywhere. #cdnpse #abpse #HigherEd

Danielle Smith’s vindictive use of the Notwithstanding clause AND the unexpected and resounding success of the #ForeverCanadian petition have spurred Albertans into action.
RECALL THEM ALL.

Alberta to revoke the rights of all teachers www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... #cdnpoli #abpoli #yyc #yeg #yql #abed #abpse
But no money for Alberta school children and their teachers….
Danielle & the UCP sure don’t care about your kids’ education and well being.
They care about coal companies.

It's amazing how quickly and dramatically the UCP will shift the goalposts to label a right-winger such as Tommy Lukaszuk as "Tommy the Commie". Tommy Lu was part of the right-wing PCs who were destroying #abpse just a decade ago. Opposing the protofascist UCP makes him a commie? #abpoli #ableg
