Alta govt health officials @shandro @CMOH_Alberta please listen to this UK expert. Pls don't base your reopening plan on our first dose vaccination rate. The variant B.1.617.2 is a potential threat. Especially don't open Alta to intern'l travellers for Calgary Stampede. Thnx ⤵️

Also, Alberta health minister Shandro @shandro & Dr Hinshaw @CMOH_Alberta, this variant #B16172 (see video quote-tweeted in above tweet) hits younger people the most

Canadian voters, please think hard before you support the CPC. Take note that they think using M*usk's Starlink is the way to go. M*sk denied the use of Starlink by Ukraine, to help the Kremlin. Think about what decisions they'd make as cabinet ministers if CPC formed govt.

"And when you think about drugs, Pierre Poilievre is the only one who understands the problem," Laryssa Waler.

I disagree. Mr Poilievre has revealed a complete lack of understanding the drug crisis in Canada.

For instance, note what @dmacpher has to say about Poilievre's lying about the fed govt's drug policy

It's not normal to accuse govt of starting wildfires; wish to fire BofC's gov; push Bitcoin; be anti-expert; be anti-WEF; let Leslyn Lewis stay in front bench despite assoc w/AfD, etc.; march w/James Topp; back anti-vax mandate bill; call PET & PMJT Marxists; use MGTOW tag, etc.

Kristin, you're being shown a clip out of context. If you'd watched QP today, you'd know that he was responding to CPC member's claims that Cdns would save $500 to $800 if the carbon tax was removed. To save that you'd need to drive 37,000 klms. You'd need to drive non-stop 24-7.

I really think people like Kirstin mean well and I blame those who are lying to her or manipulating her with clips shared out of context.

Rage-farming with disinformation and use of hyperbolic rhetoric and tug-at-your-heartstrings anecdotes. I'm waiting for Poilievre to accuse the (fed Liberal) govt of k*lling puppies next (has come close to doing that today in #QP).

"The federal Conservatives say they won't be taking advice from "so-called experts" when it comes to carbon pricing, after more than 200 economists signed an open letter challenging Pierre Poilievre's stance."

My thoughts, this is like when Harper showed a disdain for experts. Sounds like if CPC formed next govt, data will be destroyed, scientific and economic programs under-funded, decisions made at the top without consultation with experts. Is this what Millennials wish? Really?

For anyone who wasn't paying attn to #CdnPoli (or was not voting age then) during Harper years, here's a good article by Carol Linnitt, in May 2013 issue of Academic Matters, "Harper’s attack on science: No science, no evidence, no truth, no democracy" academicmatters.ca/harpers-attack…
