I am completely shocked by this! AHS’s funding for the Wilderness Treatment Base Camp (Enviros) has been cut - effective March 31, 2020. This is a publicly funded treatment program for youth 12-17 years old who are struggling with problematic alcohol and drug use.
We are failing our youth and families by eliminating funded programs for addiction treatment. Early intervention is critical for our youth ... it is about preventing long term addiction issues.

I notice patterns. I am a writer, so most of the patterns I notice in words, especially the written word - be it on paper or on the internet.

In the past two days, the words the UCP are using are interesting to say the least...

They continue to use job creation and #JobCreators to mean large corporations in the O&G fields. But I think they can see that no one is really buying that line anymore.

They use words to evoke fear and othering & an US vs THEM mentality.

"those who hold our economy HOSTAGE" "lawless and dangerous" "urban green left zealots"

Is it truly shocking that we see the kind of hate and violence we have seen this week with certain STICKERS? #ABLEG
