An entrenched neo fascist party in government and compromised provincial election administration.
Don’t let the results of the municipal election fool you. Retaining power in Alberta is the priority, not in municipalities. The province controls municipalities.
So that means the next election is probably going to be rigged by UCP. Like Russia rigs their elections.
There were enough irregularities with 2019 provincial election, and now with more surfacing within municipal elections, there is no doubt in my mind that the fix is in.
All those who were willing to tough it out until the next election, Navalney was ahead in the polls too. But Putin won in a landslide. Because he had predertermined his victory before the first ballot was cast. Russian voters just go through the motions of voting.
They don’t actually have any say in who will win elections. That’s guided democracy.
Welcome to disenfranchisement.
When your political agency means nothing because you trusted a corrupt government to abide by democratic principles.
Fascists lie. It’s a feature, not a bug.
You ain’t seen nothing yet folks.
Freedom is precious. When it’s threatened and you ignore the threat, this is what happens.
Institutions are infiltrated and become weapons of the government. Not protectors of human rights and freedoms.
I tried to warn people. But people listened to minimizers and deniers. Because it gave you a false sense of security and it’s frightening to face the truth.
Well guess what? Truth and fascists don’t care if you’re frightened.

That’s the reason I write. Collect information and analyze it. My health doesn’t permit me to do much more. But the cognitive ability is still intact and functions just fine.
I support LPC because they are the ONLY political party that acknowledges ALL indigenous peoples.
I have NEVER suggested FN narratives be silenced. I’ve merely recommended they be open and honest. I won’t tell you how to feel or think. Because I don’t believe that’s an ethical action. But you regularly tell others what they should think, as do members of your faction.
I’ve never delegitimated the option to not reconcile. That isn’t what I want, but it remains a valid option. For this fascist FN faction, that’s what reconciliation is. Regardless of what other indigenous peoples want. Dissent from that belief means exclusion from the in group.
When I was very young my parents left me with my grandparents because they couldn’t afford to feed me. I was a baby. My father had been fired and my parents had to move back to Edmonton from Drumheller. With no job, we moved into my grandparents house in Alberta Avenue.
When my parents found jobs I stayed with my grandparents because my parents were working shift work at crazy hours and my grandmother was adamant I have a regular schedule and some stability. I stayed with them until I was 2.5 years old. I then returned to my parents home.
My mother got pregnant and my brother was born a few months before my 4th birthday. I was excited. I wanted to name him Tommy after my favourite cousin. But my mom named him after her father, Joseph. My grandfather was actually Jozef because he was Polish. My brother became Joey.
Look Canada, Lethbridge Police are making threats against a sitting MLA and a journalist who alerted the public to the MLA being illegally surveilled and a few other concerning (police state like) behaviours conducted by LPD.
I’m not in control of your choices. I can try to influence them by being honest, demonstrating integrity, sticking to facts and avoiding disinformation.
Which is what I’ve tried to demonstrate in my threads.
I make mistakes. I’m not perfect. I own my errors.
I can only offer information for people to consider.
And I’ve admitted more than once that I’m an oddity in my community.
I’ve clearly identified my agenda. I’ve not negated anyone else’s agenda, but I have criticized greed and identity politics.
@fleurdelis30@WordsandGuitar I’ve explained that description to you before. So there is no reason you’re using it to discredit me other than pure spite. My family is old stock in Alberta. Meaning the FN wife of my GGG grandfather Peter Erasmus Jr had been a resident of this part of Canada for centuries.
@fleurdelis30@WordsandGuitar You want to turn my pride in my origin in this region of the world into a racist epithet that is used by conservatives to differentiate themselves from newer immigrants, so be it. I do have Old Stock Unionist American immigrants in my history as well.
But Plains Cree First Nations mitochondrial DNA does make me an old stock Albertan. Because it’s not just my word that proves I’m from this region of the world. It’s my DNA.
