Seriously. What the hell is Danielle Smith listening to? Did she get special UCP earplugs? Rachel Notley said she did NOT want the feds to get involved in the Sovereignty Act. And yet...
despite there being video showing Rachel said that, Smith says she said the exact opposite. Oh, gosh, this is so hard! How do we know who to believe about what was actually said? Do conservatives not understand about video recordings? #NeverVoteConservative
What are we to make of a governing party that advertises misinformation intended to lead the people down the garden path, in the face of actual recorded statements? Is such a party trustworthy? Is such a party put the well-being of the people anywhere on their radar? Or should
Albertans be very alarmed by this premier that fewer than 1% of eligible voters put into power? She has no mandate to do this, and no mandate to do much of anything that she plans to do. We need a general election. Let Albertans decide. #DropTheWrit#LetAlbertansDecide

Suppose you are staying in a hotel and you slip on the ice in the parking lot when leaving (checked out), and you may have whiplash and possibly concussion, do you tell the hotel? In Canada, so healthcare is covered. No lawsuit.
The slip happened on the way to get in the car and go to the airport. I sent them an email. I felt too shaken up to talk to them. Besides, they knew it was slippery. Last evening the manager was running out to offer an arm to anyone who looked scared. They should have salted it.
Anyway, they have not responded to my email. I don't know if they even look at their emails. But, yes, I have established a paper trail. AHS is busy delisting services, so you never know.
@ZAlexSc And that is what all of this is about. Regime change. Keep in mind, conservatives will do and say anything, no matter how far-fetched, to get a few more votes. That little group that thinks our federal government could be responsible for price gouging by grocery chains,
@ZAlexSc That little group who thinks our federal government is responsible for global post-pandemic inflation. That little group who can be convinced that their gas and heating costs are personally profiting the PM. Low-information voters who can be persuaded to support the CPC is what
@ZAlexSc they are after. Small segments of voters here and there. It adds up. The CPC is hoping it adds up to giving them power. Once elected, they won't care at all what any of those segments think. Power is the thing. Then they can make good on their promises to developers,
So far, the #POECommission testimony from convoy leaders has demonstrated that a) they absolutely wanted to force government change, b) they have zero regard for anyone who isn't part of their crew, c) they have an incorrect perception that they represent
the views of a majority of Canadians, d) they still feel that what they were doing was correct, justified, and maybe divinely ordered, e) they have a deep sense of entitlement and delusions of persecution, f) they can cry on cue for effect, g) they have a deeply flawed grasp
of Canadian civics, h) they harbour a lot of anti-social opinions, i) they have absorbed all the right-wing talking points about science, experts, etc, j) they are not taking the gravity of the charges against them seriously, k) they have testified in direct opposition to
There are reasons some people are electricians and some are architects and some are engineers and some are mechanics and some are epidemiologists... Our world is too complex for any of us to be an expert in everything. We have experts who have devoted countless hours to learning
their field and becoming really good at it. This is why, when your car makes a clunking noise & you are not a mechanic, you probably get a mechanic to look at it. Because you are good at something, but it's not that. Having specialized areas of expertise allows us to get through
our days without having to spend hours trying to figure out things that other people have already figured out. I am not sure why suddenly so many people are convinced that epidemiologists and scientists, and even their own doctors, are trying to kill them. It's a very curious
My husband and I went this evening and got our 2nd COVID booster shots (that's 4 shots for COVID now) & our flu shots. We did this because we are responsible adults & we trust science. We don't want to get sick & we don't want to risk making anyone else sick. #CovidIsNotOver
Well, that certainly was interesting. Hospitalization rates are higher now than in 2020 or 2021. There are a great many people who say the vaccines do nothing, or make you sick. Neither is true. COVID is a "Novel" virus. It evolves into new strains. This is why boosters are...
needed, just like we get a different flu shot every year. Being vaccinated, masking, avoiding crowds, etc all help to keep people safe. Also, apparently some R-W US talk radio host has some deep-pocketed sponsors who have funded an anti-vax film called "Sudden Deaths" or
Conservatives have conveniently divided the world into "law-abiding people" and "criminals". Yet, we are all capable of doing something criminal. Many have done illegal things and not got caught. Law-abiding vs criminal is a false dichotomy. #cdnpoli#guncontrol
Did you ever smoke weed before October 17, 2018? Have you ever rolled through a stop sign? Driven without your seatbelt? Driven above the posted speed limit? Fudged something on your taxes? Eaten something in a grocery store without paying for it? Been in a fist fight?
Been drunk and disorderly? Driven while under the influence? Made an exaggerated insurance claim? Failed to properly lock up your guns? If you have done any of these things, are you "law-abiding"? Or are you a "criminal"? It gets a bit vague, doesn't it?
