Asked on June 18 if Alberta had a contingency plan in case COVID-related hospitalizations begin to rise again, Premier Jason Kenney said "we just don't see that scenario." #COVID19AB #ableg

Is there anyone who teaches a constitutional law for journalists class? I feel we're going to need it over the next few months.

Federal Immigration Minister Marc Miller responding to the premier's complaints about asylum claimants in a thread here. Calls the premier's statement "incoherent" and said she doesn't know what's on the table because Alberta has refused to come to the table.

Alberta has refused to be part of the provincial/federal working group we struck this year to deal with the fair distribution of asylum seekers in the federation so they would be unaware of what is actually on the table, including financial compensation.

Today is my daughter's first school picture day. Instead of getting her photo taken, she's getting a Covid swab. I've worked from home, take out instead of dining in, vaccinated twice, anything I can to give her as normal a life as possible. It hasn't been enough.

I don’t know how parents of unvaccinated elementary students are coping right now. My daughter is doubled vaxxed and in university and I still worry. I can’t absorb the choices parents with little ones are facing.

Quite an extraordinary statement put out by Prime Contact, the parent company of Canadian National Public Research calling out CTV for publishing a story on a poll on consent for abortion for minors from a company that doesn't seem to exist. #ableg

Tried my best to explain the Free Alberta strategy, hear why they're angry. I've lived here my whole life, heard the grievances. I just have a hard time understanding why now?

Had my first-ever Covid swab today. I've been lucky enough to not be sick since March 2020. Showed up 15 minutes before my 11 a.m. appointment. Didn't get out until 12:10 p.m. Shout out to all the staff working hard at the assessment centre. They're very, very busy.

Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said he would love to be announcing an "Alberta Builds" program, similar to the B.C. Builds program that was announced yesterday, says he wants to partner more. (Province has nobody at that announcement)

I watch the nightly UCP war room livestreams on LinkedIn and it's incredibly disturbing to see someone comment from a professional accountant (self-described "diversity champion") this type of garbage. At least people called her out.

You're more likely to get myocarditis from Covid than the vaccine. Being relatively young and/or fit doesn't mean you have *no* risk for serious outcomes. Misinformation has deadly and devastating consequences.

In response to the premier's concerns about rural media not getting questions, Alberta government news conferences are run by government press secretaries and they determine the order of questions/who gets through.
