Shocking changes are a method of installing far right paleolibertarianism.
If people would take the time to read Nancy Maclean’s book Democracy in Chains, you would be able to recognize a pattern.
Included is the history of the Chilean fascist regime headed by Pinochet. There are two podcast episodes that relate this history quite well. Please listen to them.
If you haven’t got the time to listen to these podcasts then you haven’t got the time to wake the hell up. Gaining knowledge requires commitment and a liberal amount of your time in order to hear/read, comprehend and absorb the information being provided.
I don’t do succinct because witty repartee isn’t sufficient to convey enough information for people to understand the seriousness of our current situation.
If you want to know what’s happening, you need to put the time in to inform yourself.
When are people going to recognize what is happening?
People are dying from deadly policy choices and a refusal to implement policy that will reduce the spread and contain the virus.
The protests we observe are lead by Dominionist Christian street pastors.
Kenney is a fundamentalist Catholic similar to Amy Coney Barrett. Q’Anon is filled with people who only use magical thinking, many of them extremist zealots.
The economy is tanking, people are dying from
COVid and the inability to access functioning healthcare is upon us.
If I told you this information about any other nation or province within a nation, you’d instantly recognize it as subterfuge and sabotage of societal functions. Meaning the government is attempting to create anarchy and chaos.
This is a documented method fascists use. Strong economies and healthy people ward off fascism. Economic contraction, high unemployment and lack of access to necessary resources attracts or creates fascism.
Know your history folks.
This is a strategy to destabilize the entire Canadian economy and social order.
Stop making excuses to explain why this is happening that include: Kenney is stupid ( he is not stupid).
UCP is quite adept. In less than 1.5 years Kenney has destroyed the Alberta economy,
blown the pensions of public servants, emptied the coffers of Alberta treasury, handed out tax dollars to corporations like Halloween candy, removed several hard won human rights, given himself and his cabinet unlimited power to legislate without the legislature and oversight,
stacked the deck on super packs and municipal campaign donations, pandered to white supremacists and nut bar Dominionist Christians waiting for the world to end, and destroyed education and universal healthcare).
Short of getting an oak 2x4 to whack this information into people’s brains, what more needs to happen before people realize we’ve been overtaken by a fascist regime?
There is no point in being afraid. It’s already happened and people are now dying. It’s time to fight back.
If you’re looking at the deaths of over 700 people in Alberta in less than a year, because Kenney refuses to impose restrictions to save lives so his donors & church buddies can continue to take in profits and you aren’t convinced yet,
I’m not sure what kind of carnage you need to see before you remove the veil of denial and delusion.
It can happen here. I know because it is happening here right now.
Never again was a year ago. We are full swing into “shut the MF down before anyone else has to die!”
No time to be afraid. Emotions are hardly useful at the moment. We need to organize and push Kenney and UCP out of office.
We are not required to sit and wait for the next election. There is a reason we have the human right to associate and the right to protest. That would be to organize and protest corrupt governance.
As long as we are peaceful, we can protest to our hearts content.
Which I suggest we start organizing. Immediately.
Citizens are not required to obediently allow themselves to be put at risk and watch people die in droves around them because the election is 2.5 years away.
We do NOT need to ask for permission to act on our own behalf as individuals, families, communities and democratic society.
The only person you need permission from is yourself. Canadian citizenship has already provided you with the right to life and security of person.
By January 1, 2021 there will be close to 1000 dead Albertans. Unless you approve of that outcome, the time to do something about it is now.
The Butterdome is a GD field hospital.
We are the wealthiest jurisdiction in Canada and people are having to be treated for heart attacks and strokes in a bloody field hospital in Edmonton.
Please stop normalizing this. It’s NOT NORMAL!
There is a fascist burning our province to the ground. It’s time we took that SOB and his cabal out of power.
Enough people have died already. We need to stop@the carnage. Our physicians are about to collapse in exhaustion.

WTF is O’Toole doing in Quebec? Trudeau is letting down France because the Canadian constitution allows for hate speech to be restricted?
What kind of fricking polarizing nonsense is that? Why is Canada obligated to uphold France’s interpretation of liberty and free speech?
It isn’t! Which is the whole point. How dare O’Toole suggest Canadians compromise the Charter’s freedom of expression to accommodate a French interpretation of free speech. Or rather, Freedom of Expression.
What a nincompoop statement! Pierre Trudeau brought us the Chartwr of Rights and Freedoms and was from Quebec. So how do you make the argument this is anti-Quebec interpretation?
@erinotoole are you actively seeking to divide this nation? Me thinks you are.
And classic projection. Kenney, in his zeal to moralize addiction, closed safe injection sites that would have had addiction specialists to support addicts.
But it’s PM’s fault. Not the provincial govt who removed the safety net.
Not the fault of the provincial govt that transferred all the addiction recovery funds to religious based treatment centres who proselytize while condemning addicts poor choices, reverting to blaming a personal responsibility failure vs a medical condition for addiction.
Kenney is killing people with vile cruel policy. 900 addicts, over 800 COVid patients.
How many seniors who had medication changes forced by a policy change? How many hospital patients who can’t receive adequate care because of rampant illness spreading in AB?
Mr. Kenney is suffering from delusion. Completely oblivious, or aware, but doesn’t care.
Is he attempting to put a positive spin on his COVid response (gaslighting Albertans)? Or does he actually believe he has made a significant difference (gaslighting himself)?
Premiers chose to reopen schools, in Alberta packing them like sardines, even after being informed of initial studies in August that demonstrated transmission rates for kids were no different than adult transmission rates.
This is not incompetence. UCP MLA Luan admitted the plan was to take COVid numbers to almost hospital capacity before imposing any public health restrictions.
This is consistent with US exposed emails confirming they wanted children to become infected.
Canada is being harvested like Iraq. The chaos came after the attack and removal of Saddam Hussein. It’s still chaos.
Al Qaida emerged from the chaos of Iraq. Religious extremism.
Who are the biggest backers of Conservative parties? Religious extremists.
It’s the same game plan. We watched it occur in 2003. A few short years after Russia was overtaken by Putin. Several nations have fallen victim since then.
These are all the same people backed by religious extremism. Republicans were never fighting terrorism.
This is what Putin did to Russia. It’s what Yanukovych did to Ukraine. Boris Johnson is doing to UK. Trump did to US. Bush jr did to Iraq. Orban did to Hungary.
It’s a strategy. The more economically desperate people become, the easier the population is to control.
It’s more difficult to protest if you’re focussed on where your next meal is coming from or how you’re going to pay rent.
Remember in May and June how conservatives across Canada wanted CERB to be ceased immediately? Because people weren’t motivated to work.
