“Alberta's education and health ministers are rejecting concerns from physicians that the province's re-entry plan for schools doesn't do enough to protect students and teachers from COVID-19.”

A couple of things here...

#abpoli #ableg cdnpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
First of all, two people who have no experience in health care beyond moving the current one closer to privatization, disagree with experts in the field related to the topic.

That’s hubris and arrogance.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
And that’s some very clever wordplay.

“Designed in consultation with...”

If someone asks an expert what they think, and then disregard 100% of what they recommend, that person can still say they consulted and expert before making their decision.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
So here we have a “plan” that physicians and teachers are calling grossly insufficient and inadequate, but @AdrianaLaGrange and @shandro are pushing ahead regardless.

Is anyone suprised?

/4

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
And let’s not forget the position that the @yyCBEdu are in...

LaGrange is pushing this plan at the same time she’s given them a deadline to shape up or she’s going to fire them all.

We’ve been trying to make sense of this for a couple of days now…

And with people outraged at Nenshi for saying 44 pounds of fentanyl isn’t that much…

How did this whole thing become a thing?

Thread!

/1

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli Image
On December 16th, Nenshi posted this video wherein he claimed that 44 pounds of fentanyl were seized at the Alberta Montana border…

This is the video that the UCP were able to flip into the “Nenshi doesn’t care about fentanyl”.

/2 Image
Thing is…

We did a segment on Sunday where we talked about fentanyl seizures at the border.

And 44 pounds didn’t seem to track at all.

So we got our google on.

And found this in a CBC article.

It’s 44 pounds across the entire Canada/US border, for the entire year.

Smith is having a presser to announce a $29 million spend on a new unit for the Sheriff’s.

She’s getting new vehicles, drones and creating a 2 KM buffer on the border, invoking the critical infrastructure defense act, & putting the sheriff’s in charge.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Mike Ellis - We’ve gotta get control the 298 km because drug traffickers and gun drealers are crossing the border!
Ellis - I’ve tried to do everything I can to get the border under control. That’s why we’re strategically deploying Sherrifs, K-9, 10 drones to set up our own inspection stations.

FOIP Preview!

Ok, remember when Smith's office claimed to the globe & mail that her Skybox Sojourn to Vancouver was on personal time and all people paid their own way?

We've already demonstrated that was a lie, but it turns out it was a bigger lie!

/1

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli Image
As we've already demonstrated, the statement about the staff paying their own way was a lie.

The statement was issued on May 13.

The request to have Becca Polak and Marshall SMith pay didn't come until May 15.

/2 Image
In fact, in our recent FOIP, it's clear that the official planning for this trip went all the way back to May 3, and it's also clear that government resources were used to plan and execute the trip.

Well damn.

Let’s start this absolute train wreck of a thread by saying that a government should be responsible about who it chooses to elevate to justify their policies.

Public scrutiny is an inevitable effect from public exposure.

/1

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli Image
It is exploitive to put forward individuals and use their stories of trauma and abuse as shields when advancing polices that will cause trauma and are, by many interpretations abusive.

This didn’t have to happen this way.

But Danielle Smith has set her stage.

/2
The first speaker in Smiths presser today was Kellie-Lynn Pirie.

Her story is absolutely tragic.

But she should have never been on that stage, and it was irresponsible for Smith to put her there.

She literally denies science.

In the past 12 hours, @LukaszukAB has posted two emails sent out from 2 Islamic schools in #YEG.

Strap in!

(This thread is gonna get wild because it does have direct connections to the Skybox scandal by the way)

One of the posts is from the Al Mustafa Acadamy.

Their secretary treasurer appeared with Demetrios Nicolaides on April 26th of this year endorsing the new UCP curriculum.

That secretary Treasurer is also the Vice President and COO of an organization called Hasco Development Corporation.

Hasco Development bought the site for the Al Mustafa School in 2010 from the Catholic School District.

The president and founder of Hasco is also the founder and board chair of Al Mustafa.

His name is Syed Hasan.

The official UCP policy proposals that membership will be voting on are out!

And yes!

They're exactly as bad as you might think!

Let's get started with a Mega thread of "Wait, what?!?'

First up we have in True MAGA fashion the banning of all Diversity, Equity and Inclusion principles in hiring for any public body!

So if a white man has a more extensive academic history, he could be the person to address the experiences of women and girls in residential schools!

Fun!

Doesn't take very long to get to the anti-trans bigory though!

Policy #3 wants to ensure that gender is assigned at conception and that you're only allowed into the spaces that fit that!
