If you're making a video about the Canada "we know and love", maybe you shouldn't be using pictures of Utah's rockies, or the "foothills" of Indonesia?

🧵Here's a my thread of all the clips I have confirmed to NOT be Canadian.

The elementary classroom was filmed in Serbia.

Apparently there's nothing more Canadian than driving a pickup truck through an AMERICAN SUBURB.🤦

Newly built Canadian home in Slovenia?

How much is shipping going to cost?🤣

The Canadian countryside of North Dakota USA?

Pretty sure Canadian cattle don't graze in California.

I know Canada took in a lot of Ukrainian refugees, but I didn't know we took entire campus buildings from Kyiv Polytechnic, Ukraine into Canada.🙄

Also, umm, did they use "Young handsome Caucasian" in their stock video search?

The female hunter with "Canadian firearms" was filmed somewhere in the USA.

Grandma and Grandpa are seen here in Richmond Park, London, England.

It's going to be a long trip home!

The great Canadian Foothills of Wonosobo, Indonesia?🤦

If you can't figure out which Rocky Mountain range in Canada this is, you wouldn't be the only one.

That's because this is the Northern Utah's Uinta Mountains.

Like really? You couldn't find a clip of the Canadian Rockies?

There's a lot of other clips that are definitely not from Canada, but couldn't confirm an actual location for them, so I left it out of my thread.

Again, if you're making a video about the Canada "we know and love", you should be using actual Canadian footage.
Family get-together confirmed to be Tuscany, Italy!

I guess it is possible for the student to fly from Ukraine to Italy on the same day & make it in time for some wine to celebrate sobriety!

I figured out another one! I found HOME!!!

It's in Venezuela!🤦

Everyone start packing your bags for the trip home!

So the guy looking at the tractor hauling hay bales and wondering why they didn't choose his stock photo from the same set with an actual combine, is in Ukraine.

🧵When challenged on paying out of pocket for healthcare, Danielle Smith often brings up the Canada Health Act as a defense.

But Smith is not a fan of the Canada Health Act and has been seeking ways around it.

#ableg #abpoli #abhealth
1/🧵
Danielle Smith contemplates if the Canada Health Act needs to be thrown out due to its principles, such as universality which she argues should not cover all hospital and physician services.
2/🧵
One of the simpler ways for Smith to get around the Canada Health Act is to have a friendly federal government in power.

The next clip is from April 2022 where she is talking with Gordon Tulk, the person who originally gave her the idea of health spending accounts.

Danielle Smith & Rob Anderson contemplate making agreements with Ron DeSantis and other "free states".
(Rob is now executive director of the premier's office)

From May 15, 2022 (after she re-entered politics on March 31).
🧵1/4
#ableg #abpoli
Danielle Smith gets her legislative ideas from Ron DeSantis and Kristi Noem? Pardon me?

"Ron DeSantis has put forward multiple different pieces of legislation that we would also parallel..."
2/4
Danielle Smith:
"Was watching with great interest what leaders like Ron DeSantis and Kristi Noem were doing"

"I would have preferred to see our leaders have a coalition of the free states. Why couldn't our conservative Premiers have been working with red state governors..."

🧵Preston Manning has already written a report of a fictional investigation into the government handling of the COVID pandemic with a future date of June 5, 2023. /1
#ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
The report reads like Freedom Convoy fan-fiction. I'll be picking out the sections that stood out to me, but there's just so much absurdity in it that I can't tweet them all. /2
Let's begin a journey into Preston Manning's imagination, into a "fictional, futuristic description of that investigation" into the COVID pandemic. /3
