Just how messed up is Alberta’s Freedom of Information system? They’re just getting back to us on a request that we filed NINE years ago. Ironically, while they made us wait nearly a decade, they give us less than a month to respond. Can’t make this stuff up. 🤦♂️ #abpoli
The mortgage pain and unaffordability in Canada is just starting. So far we have seen mostly people with variable mortgages starting to default and have negative mortgages - the wave of fixed rate renewal is beginning this year. Canada has $2T in mortgage debt and only 5% came…

1/n: Three facts: 1. Covid vaccines saved 3 million American lives during the pandemic. 2. At least 200,000 Americans needlessly died in 2021-22 because they refused COVID vaccines. 3. Those who perished were victims of a predatory health disinformation campaign.

Corporations say they were forced to raise prices. But their profits have skyrocketed since 2020. They hit a record high in Q4 2023. News flash: They used inflation as cover to get rich.
You can say Bill 20 is good because it would allow governments to remove councillors like Sean Chu. Here's the thing, though: it won't be used to remove councillors like Sean Chu.
I wish this was a parody account. But, it’s a real post from a UCP minister. You know how we hold local council accountable, Ric? Through elections, that’s how! NOT through decrees made behind closed doors by the UCP. This is the opposite of democracy. It’s authoritarian.

Alberta’s NDP opposition says the latest bill from Danielle Smith’s UCP government marks another step towards a “totalitarian regime." calgary.citynews.ca/2024/04/26/alb…
Bank of Canada: What are you waiting for? #cdnecon #canlab #cdnpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
Some think labeling the UCP as "authoritarian" is over-the-top. They've granted themselves the ability to overturn local elections and bylaws as they see fit. And that's only this week.
#COVID19 has killed almost 60,000 Canadians to date. We deserve a transparent report into the overall effects, good and bad, of pandemic public-health measures, by @AntibioticDoc @BradenMannsYYC theglobeandmail.com/canada/alberta… via @GlobeDebate
Our latest poll on housing for @globalnews shows how desperate it has become. 80% say owning a home in Canada is only for the rich. That’s up 11pts since last March. 72% (+9%) say they have given up now on ever owning a home. Numbers are higher for Gen Z, Millennials. 1/n
#Ableg Under the UCP, Alberta’s local municipalities & cities have seen: 🤫 O&G Companies evading $230 Million in property taxes 📉 A 50% reduction in infrastructure grants 🛑 Stripping localities of fair elections & bylaws The UCP is NOT grassroots populism; it’s autocracy
Albertans are more progressive than they think they are … and that false impression “stifles policy innovation or discussion of progressive solutions.” In other words, we New Democrats do NOT have to become PC 2.0 to win. Thanks, @DrJaredWesley! policyoptions.irpp.org/magazines/apri…
Excellent column from @DrJaredWesley: “Smith has demonstrated a talent for what political science calls ‘cheap talk.’ In game theory, cheap talk is when people communicate freely without any requirement or even intention to act on their words.” edmontonjournal.com/opinion/column…

The Ontario government is investing in vape detectors in schools. Why not go all the way and go for Air Particulate Monitors? Are they afraid that bad and unhealthy air quality will be revealed? Not everybody is vaping in schools. But everybody is breathing. And it should be safe
@gilmcgowan Very impressed by your health care platform, I'm a retired nurse and everything you're advocating makes sense. Bravo for taking the ongoing Covid pandemic and Long Covid seriously, too. Big issue for workers.
You can say Bill 20 is good because it would allow governments to remove councillors like Sean Chu. Here's the thing, though: it won't be used to remove councillors like Sean Chu.

Some think labeling the UCP as "authoritarian" is over-the-top. They've granted themselves the ability to overturn local elections and bylaws as they see fit. And that's only this week.
@BestStephenD I think the concept that McGowan is trying highlight is the left is losing it’s working class drive at the grassroots because it is leaving workers behind. Maybe not all workers, but the blue collar ones Polievre is focusing on.
@BestStephenD he was just talking about the image that many folks may have of the NDP. he didn't say it was a bad thing ... quite the opposite. but he said the NDP has to reach the working class who may be put off by this image.
