I will never stop being shocked at how easily this Government lies. And they do it ALL THE TIME. 🤥

🚨Massive thread alert. 🚨

PS @albertaNDP, I'm stealing your image because it's perfect. 😁 Exhibit A: The Allan inquiry. You've got a bunch of press secretaries, cabinet ministers, Savage, and Kenney all going on about what a success it was.

If you read the $3.5M report you would quickly find that Allan FOUND NO WRONGDOING

Some thoughts on the recently announced Critical Worker Benefit. Grab a coffee☕️ #ableg cause this is going to be a thread.🧵

First, let me say that I'm glad @jkenney is finally spending the money @JustinTrudeau sent AB. Overall, this is a good thing. But I have...questions
1/9 First, let's temper our praise here... The Fed Govt sent $$ to every province in MAY 2020 earmarked for critical workers.
This money was always destined for Albertans and Kenney sat on it while other provinces got it out to the workers that needed it. 2/9

So according to Sonya Savage 6 existing coal leases can go forward on Category 2 land, pending AER approval...

I believe that'd be:
Valory Resources, Atrum Coal, Montem Resources, Cabin Ridge, Ram River Coal Corp and Jameson Resources.

1/3 I already did a thread on Atrum Coal, remember their Elan Hard Coking project? 230 sq km of coal mining from Crowsnest Pass all the way to Chain Lakes!

THREAD🧵🚨 #ableg

If you look at the companies with coal leases in AB you'll notice they're VERY small companies that only exist for a specific project (Ex. Montem, Ram River, Atrum) or they're a subsidiary of a mining major. (Benga)

We should all be concerned about this... 1/n For instance...
Montem: 0.23 cents per share, market cap $46M, Sept 2020 IPO

Atrum $0.26 cents per share $150M market cap

Benga, limited subsidiary of Riversdale resources, which is a subsidiary of the mining giant Hancock Prospecting (still with me?) 2/n

I heard @jkenney likes penguins. The penguins have joined the fight!🐧✊

@CupeAB @AB_MD_WarRoom @albertaNDP @cpawssab @projectcalgary @SAndersonshpk @yomeeks @youseepeeYYC @TheBreakdownAB @HandmaidAlberta It would be a shame if people RT/liked or saved this image and posted it in response to UCP MLA's tweets, especially @JasonNixonAB @sonyasavage @adrianalagrange @RicMcIver @shandro @demetriosnAB @devindvote @doug_schweitzer

A real shame.... 🐧#PenguinResistance #ableg

OK #ableg #mountainsnotmines #defendabparks I read up on the Ram Coal Corp leases near Nordegg.

Another thread on one of many coal companies aiming to set up shop in Alberta, putting our mountains, water, and nature at risk.

Today's focus: Water 1/10

⏬🚨⏬THREAD ⏬🚨⏬ Here's a map of Ram Coal Corp's leases and their "Aries" project. All on former cat 2 land where open pit coal mining would have been prevented by the now rescinded 1976 coal policy

200+ sq km of leased land for coal exploration, only 15km from the N. Sask river. 🏞️

OK #ableg and #mountainsnotmines Friends:🚨
I took a look through Atrum Coal's project documents for their Elan coal (open pit mining) project in Southern Alberta so that you don't have to.

First, let's start with an overview of the project...🧵 1/8 Located on former cat 2 lands, the open pit mining site "possesses the potential for multiple large scale mining operations", covering 230 sq km from Crowsnest Pass to Chain Lakes🤯

Oh, and is that the Oldman River on the southern end of it? Why yes, yes it is. 2/8

Celebrating the UCP “Red Tape Awareness Week” by looking at the changes to EMS dispatch *in the middle of a global pandemic* that WILL cost lives.
cbc.ca/news/canada/ca… "Tara Veer, the mayor of Red Deer, says the consolidated system means fire departments will not automatically be dispatched to an emergency call and that those crews are often the first to arrive, given the strain on the ambulance system. "

In 911 dispatch, seconds matter.
