Alberta, we have a serious problem in Edmonton and in the @edmontonpolice.
Watch this video please.
I’m afraid for BIPOC. Please do not let this escape your attention. This is a teenager in Edmonton, attacked by a mob of other white teens, intent on doing harm.
The public must support this family and the black community.
We must also confront the issue with police in Edmonton.
The officer and detachment administration must be held accountable for this brutality being ignored. The attempt to dismiss it as an “altercation” condemned.
Please help by circulating this information and demanding the Edmonton Police Services address this incident publicly.
Police investigating themselves is not an acceptable option with a crime this serious and repeated attacks on the black community in Edmonton.
The chief of police @DMMcFee must address this incident publicly & reprimand the officer who minimized its impact on this child.
We cannot accept this violence. Words are not enough. We need consequences commensurate with the crimes committed by a mob of teens and by police.
@jkenney and @KayceeMaduYEG must also address the growing violence being directed at the black community in Alberta.
The public cannot accept anything less.
Skin colour can not be permitted to increase the likelihood of physical violence in broad daylight. Most especially a child’s skin colour.
Conservatives are either going to address this with commensurate consequences, or the public will demand they resign as a governing party.
If you can’t lead & protect all residents of Alberta, resign and make way for those who can and who will protect BIPOC children, women and men.
We will not idly stand by while racism is emboldened. For gods sake, will thugs and miscreants be publicly donning white hoods soon?
Their statement clearly expresses devaluation and disregard of those who hold beliefs and values different from their own and the minority who support them. It’s overt disrespect and dehumanization.
Not only is the UCP statement communicating that only the opinions of far right libertarians and conservatives will be heard, they are clearly revealing their disdain for all others.
Canada requires an extreme lockdown to halt covid transmission.
And even that will only slow the transmission.
Yet some still protest to remove the inadequate restrictions in place.
Years from now people will wonder how the ignorant were permitted to protest. How did some deluded citizens come to demand the right to risk death and disease for everyone?
While her screed comes with a warning, Naomi Wolf has an enormous following and several impressionable and gullible young women look up to her as a feminist and climate change advocate.
Did she stop taking medication or start taking shrooms?
It’s embarrassing.
Not for me, for her and all her followers.
She also recently did an interview with Steve Bannon indicating her fondness for Steve and that he was a good guy.
🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️
Absurd. Without a doubt, she’s been drinking koolaid. Way to much koolaid.
So far the Rebel has interfered in France federal election, sympathetically covered Charlottesville Neo-Nazis, trained with Russian saboteurs, promoted Jan6 insurrection, and now laundered American money to fund UK based Tommy Robinson.
Hmm. Also connected to Proud Boys and Jack Posobiec. Currently helping run Christian Nationalist disinformation campaign.
Can anyone say far right mercenary saboteur and dark money agents for hire for foreign adversaries?
While the virus must be brought into the environment by a traveller, it’s easily contained if caught early and contact tracing is completed.
Alberta demonstrated this during the first wave of covid. Timely and efficient contact tracing and quarantine limited the viral spread.
The public’s memory is short and fickle. When covid came to North America, it was allowed to spread without any containment for months in the United States under the Trump administration. A dearth of tests and testing materials was blamed.
Incredible. Kenney held off imposing restrictions even though projection modelling (estimates, educated guesses) predicted by the end of September the province would exceed hospital capacity.
