#EnoughIsEnoughUCP
‼️
We MUST continue to STAND UP & HAVE OUR VOICES HEARD‼️
Not only will DS hear so will the rest of Canada & give them courage to PUSH BACK against their Con premiers‼️
#EnoughIsEnoughUCP
I’m grateful and proud of the Albertans who organized and showed up today to send the message that
#EnoughIsEnoughUCP
.
As an Albertan with a disability and a member of the 2SLGBTQ+ community, you’ve given me hope.

~ Trudeau sent a letter to
@ABDanielleSmith
with some strong words.
The bottomline:
"We will not stand by while anyone seeks to weaken pensions & reduce the retirement income of Canadians."
#IStandWithTrudeau
Because we cut the provincial fuel tax, inflation in Manitoba is now below 1%. Our fuel tax cut also brought down inflation across Canada.
Little Manitoba is doing big things!
~ This is getting way out of control!
Two moms are speaking out after their 9 yr old daughter was verbally assaulted at a track and field event in Kelowna.
He stopped the entire event and demanded certification to prove that her daughter was born female.
~ People screaming about losing their "freedoms" when they live in one of the freest countries in the world.
It just shows their entitlement and ignorance.
“We stand. We fight. We take back our rights!” Thousands of freedom loving Canadians storm downtown Toronto for their rights & freedoms. This day last year

~Hey, schoolkids of SK, just spitballin' over here.
You could decide to change your name EVERY DAMN DAY and school admin would have to fill out the paperwork to inform your parents.
Overwhelm the system and make it stop.

~ Open-toed shoes, no socks, no hair tie, no gloves, a number of health infractions at the Dining Car in High River by our very own conspiracy-loving premier.
Hi, I’m Naheed Nenshi. I’m running to be the leader of Alberta’s NDP and the next premier of this province.
I can’t do this without your support. Visit to buy a membership and sign up as a supporter.
We can do this. Together. For Alberta. For all of us.
~ UCP is under investigation for its secrecy
Finally, it's being acknowledged!
An AB watchdog has notified provincial ministries an investigation is underway in response to allegations DS’s government is systematically breaking a transparency law.
THIS is why
#PierrePoilievreIsLyingToYou
wants to do away with CPP and EI.
THE BENEFITS ARE FOR WORKERS, NOT EMPLOYERS.
It's not because the workers are suffering from paying it it's because businesses have to pay a large portion.
Businesses pay 60% of EI & 50% of CPP costs.
~The UCP is reinstating the gas tax on the same day as the
#CarbonTax
because they know people will be confused and think the increase is all from the carbon tax.
So UCP supporters voted for a fuel tax
Good to know
"And Alberta's fuel tax is expected to be fully reinstated to 13 cents per litre of gasoline the same day as the new fiscal year begins."
BTW, we don't get a rebate on the AB fuel tax
Today in Calgary. PM Trudeau pounces on Premier Smith's continued attacks against the Carbon Tax citing previous statements where she was for it. Including how Federal Cons are holding back further rebates for rural Albertans.

I’m not a huge fan of Justin, but he’s got people inches away from his face screaming nonsense and he doesn’t drop his smile and keeps shaking hands and taking selfies. It’s kind of badass.
~ F*ck‼️ 1 million per month for at least a year will be spent advertising the Alberta Pension Plan BEFORE they make a decision on a referendum‼️
Fck'n, an unbelievable waste of Albertan's tax dollars for an APP no one wants‼️
She's a lunatic.
#DanielleSmithIsUnfitToLead
Smith says the decision for a referendum will be made by May of 2024.
She’s given herself an advertising budget of ~$1 million a month between now & then.
The UCP will certainly continue to advertise after May.
This is subsidized campaigning.
For almost a whole term.
#abpoli
~ Thanks, UCP! Just got our electricity bill for the cold month of Dec., 537.86 including charges @.24kWH.
We live in a 1200 sq ft house. Nov. bill 179.00 @ 17.39kWH.
What you get when the regulations are dropped and the energy companies can charged WTF the want.
~Smith got an earful from radio callers this weekend on healthcare.
She gave only excuses & gaslighting.
A nurse texting in criticized the massive drop in beds available for an increasing population.
“We don’t need you to burn down the house. We need you to build it up."
BREAKING: During an announcement in Vancouver. Prime Minister Trudeau announces a new Renters Bill of Rights which includes protections for tenants, legal funding to fight unfair practices from landlords, and your rent will now count towards your credit score/profile.

~ It's happened!! The first public school to be shut down and replaced by a charter school under the UCP.
How many more will follow? This is the plan after all.
#FuckTheUCP
#BetterOffWithRachel
~ Many of you are not old enough to remember how it used to be in hospitals, schools, infrastructure, right down to snow plowing our streets.
It's all gone to shit.
The reason? Corporate and personal income taxes to the wealthy have been cut drastically.
#TaxTheRich
~You KNOW Trudeau LOVES Canada.
Poilievre thinks Canada is broken and wants to break it further.
If you care about Canada the obvious choice for leader is Trudeau.
PM
@JustinTrudeau
will never get enough credit for decisive action in the Pandemic. Lives, jobs, and the economy were saved. But the Far Right never fails to sell alternate reality, their hate fantasy, the big lie, that the PM wants to harm a country he loves.
~ Fuckers!!
THIS >>> In Alberta’s Rocky Mountains, an Australian-owned coal mine is quietly forging ahead
Grande Cache locals were surprised to hear Mine 14 — exempt from Alberta's pause on coal mining in the Rockies — is poised to start digging

"We deserve a premier that says what she means and means what she says!" Who might he mean?
Nenshi rarely disappoints
THIS is a great speech. Too bad UCPers won't watch it.
~The media is onto it! It won't take long to identify this bigot.
Massel said he is pressing charges and will pursue the incident under the Criminal Code of Canada. He said he shared the incident on social media so LGBTQ+ people will see they are not alone
~Just 71¢‼️
The AER collected just 71¢ in 13yrs from oilsands operators to put toward cleaning up the vast toxic tailings spread & to remediate mine sites
Less than one dollar collected over 13yrs from some of the richest companies on the planet
~ Conservatives believe government should be run like a business.
Government should never be run like a business.
The goal of business is to create profit for the few.
The goal of Government is to create opportunities for the many!

~ So someone who claims to be a Nazi is calling on the PM to resign over the Nazi debacle?
Maybe all those who wined and dined her from the Con party should be the ones to resign.
#IStandWithTrudeau
#AndersonIsaNazi
~ So, are you willing to march in the streets and show this unelected, fake, conspiracy theorist premier that we do not want her making decisions, changing regulations and mandates for Albertans without an election under her belt?
~Our children are being robbed of a decent education to educate the children of the wealthy.
"Percent of funding to charter schools 3Xs higher under DS's UCP govt compared to public schools."
It shows her priorities and they're not about us!

Fact
Albertans are getting HAMMER Das deregulated electricity prices jumped 128% over last year
Now we have one of the MOST expensive grids…and the MOST unstable.
This isn’t due to Trudeau….This is 100% on the UCP.
Danielle Smith better return from her vacation ASAP
~The Travers solar farm in AB is our largest
Today, at -16 with a mostly cloudy sky, it reached 100.2% of potential generation, despite the 17cm of snow received in the last week
Solar can be huge in AB with batteries &wind, it will substantially reduce your power bill

~THIS IS A LIE‼️
@AdrianaLaGrange
The email from the AB health minister’s office said: “All Albertans already have access to government-sponsored health benefit plans, which include drug coverage.”
~ In Ontario a judge has ruled the families of nursing-home victims can sue the minister of long-term care, citing the plaintiffs’ contention that the government showed bad faith and an acute degree of negligence.
~"3 in 10 Cdns blame govt spending over other factors for rise in consumer prices"
Maybe they have no clue because the rest of the world is also suffering from inflation. Maybe they are confused as they've been fed misinformation by the opposition.
Smith has restated her intent to meet with extremist Tucker Carlson.
By appearing on stage beside a person with such hateful, harmful views, Smith shows a total disregard for the negative consequences this will have on Alberta’s reputation, and casts severe doubt on her own.
~ THIS confirms our suspicions. The bias is clear.
July/2020 Ethics commissioner’s spouse and his partners donated $78K to UCP & PCs
Just like she found no conflict of interest with Doug Schweitzer, there’s probably no conflict here either. Right?
In Calgary, heading home tomorrow, and so lucky to have timed it perfect to be able to attend the

Wallace says there were members of the RCMP, CSIS, OPP, Ottawa cops who worked on Trudeau's protection detail who were members of this "insurrection". They were part of the Convoy organizers. Who had divided loyalties and put their religion before their country.
~The feds are bypassing Conservative premiers for a reason.
They take the funds, use them for their own agenda, and then blame the feds for the lack of progress in these areas while Canadians suffer.
