1 - We’ve taken another look at @PugetSoundPSR, who published the original internet post that we were DM’d yesterday from an individual who has proven to be quite reliable.
PSR appears to be a quite a far right leaning organization, and that forces some questions...
2 - First of all, how does a small, apparently independent organization out of BC get leaked info on an Alberta based radio host?
Secondly, why does PSR have a ready to go theory for RJ’s departure, particularly one so inflammatory?
3 - @ryanjespersen has been a fixture in Alberta Talk Radio for quite some time. Why has his removal been so quietly done up until today?
4 - It’s no secret that the @UCPCaucus has held Mr. Jespersen in some contempt for quite some time, and with the recent UCP fundraising email that implied the media was an enemy we can’t help but wonder...
5 - What happened here?
It can’t be easy to push a high ratings host out the door, and yet that’s what happened.
We may never know, but with the seeming purge of progressive MSM folks who will use their massive platforms to question the govt...
6 - And with this leak coming from an independent far right media org that has a small audience, the question remains, who gave them the leak and why?

Today on "Danielle Smith lies a lot and very, very easily about unimportant details just to make a story sound better..."
Earlier today she tweeted out this picture, claiming that it was from the opening of a new recovery community...

It seems weird that you would have a crowd that big for a recovery community opening...
Especially when it appears to be in downtown Calgary.
Where they haven't opened any recovery communities.
But that's where this note gets to be important.

Because it turns out that "Cameron" was a performer at a street festival held for "Recovery Day", who is kinda big deal in the country music community, having just been nominated for 6 awards at the Canadian Country Music Association Awards and winning 2.
A briefing memo on the future of pharmacare for Albertans.
If you’re expecting Smith to deliver on her promises of “we’ll opt out of the federal program to make pharmacare better”…
This ain’t it.
Especially if you’re a senior.

So what are the coles notes?
Basically, the UCP seem to be believing that seniors have access to meds that prevent health conditions from getting worse is just costing too darn much.
So what if, just like the did with AISH, they create a new program where seniors get less!
/2
The proposal is to get rid of all the separate programs that exist to care for people with different needs and means and just create a single one that is income tested against seniors and their families!
Since Smith and the UCP have announced a delayed deadline for the first “CorruptCare” investigation report…
We thought it might be fun to offer up a mini-report tonight!
So strap in, cause this gets wild!

Today, the Globe & Mail dropped a story about two characters who have had their toes in both AHS MHCare waters.
Allegedly, Jitendra Prasad was working both sides of the fence when Alberta Surgical Group was trying to get new contracts after being turned down.
/2
Even more intriguing, the report allegedly also claims that Blayne Iskiw, who was later hired by MHCare pushed through contract terms that were above and beyond what his coworkers believed should have been offered.
Just over a week ago, we asked our audience to ignore an account that was set up clearly to troll us and harass a journalist and private citizen.

Since that time there have been multiple coincidences that suggest some connection between an individual known to “fix” in politics, that account and another individual.
/2
We have since been provided a court ruling that clearly spells out that one of these individuals has a history of criminal harassment and severe untreated mental health issues (as of May 2025).
