I’m going to be super vulnerable for a minute. There is a very real possibility that I will be affected by these cuts. The environment at work has been extremely negative for months now and I am starting to feel completely drained. #ableg #canlab

It’s been very hard seeing what a fantastic job @jkenney has done convincing the public that somehow I’m less of a “real Albertan” than them thanks to my profession and that I deserve to lose my job so that it will miraculously bring back theirs. #ableg #canlab

Not only am I scared of losing a job that I love, I’m scared of a future Alberta where I have to send my kids to schools with massive class sizes that aren’t allowed to teach critical thinking. #ableg #canlab

I’m scared that the next time one of my loved ones needs medical attention, the wait times for ambulances, care, and lab results will be far too long. #ableg #canlab

I’m scared that cutting “red tape” means less safety regulations and protections for workers and the public. #AbLeg #canlab

I’m scared of runaway climate change and a provincial economy that never recovers because it refuses to diversify. #ableg #canlab

Mostly I’m just scared and exhausted and sometimes I don’t know how much more bad news I can take.

At the same time, I know that this is exactly what @jkenney wants. He wants us in a constant state of fear and anxiety so that we’re too exhausted to fight back, but we will. We are stronger together. #ableg #canlab

So I apologize in advance to my followers if my tweets become more Alberta-focused for awhile. It’s going to be a long four years for us. Solidarity! #canlab
