The Prime Minister says he broke the ethics law & violated prosecutorial independence in order to “protect jobs?” For the record: this is the same PM who killed thousands of jobs & prolonged a recession in our energy sector by killing the Northern Gateway & Energy East pipelines

HSBC is boycotting Alberta’s oil sands. Meanwhile, the CEO of HSBC is “excited” to be headlining a conference promoting investment in Saudi Arabi, which executed 37 people yesterday. The next Alberta Government will not tolerate this kind of hypocrisy.

If there were any doubts that the titans of global finance aren’t holding grudges over Saudi Arabia’s human rights record, their appearances at a Riyadh conference this week should lay those to rest.

Good to see provinces across Canada moving on from their COVID restrictions to get life back to normal. I continue to call on the Prime Minister to follow the provinces’ lead by lifting ineffective federal mandates.

A thoughtful statement from Canada's chief medical officers which acknowledges the damaging impacts of COVID restrictions, particularly on kids, and speaks openly about scaling down restrictions. It’s worth reading their joint statement to Canadians ➡

It was gracious of Ed Whittingham to resign a day before we could fire him. Our government will never appoint people like him who are avowed opponents of Alberta jobs. And we will stop all funding to groups engaged in economic sabotage against Alberta.

When I was nine, former Prime Minister John Diefenbaker sat down & chatted with me for 10 minutes. That conversation kindled in me a deep interest in public service, which has brought me to this day. Thank-you for being kind to a young lad, and an inspiration, Mr. Diefenbaker!

Nobody wants to see empty shelves and higher prices. We need some common sense here. Ottawa should drop the vax mandate for truckers now.

Ottawa’s pointless travel restrictions have to go. We are renewing our call to drop all of the travel restrictions, including the pointless proof of vaccination program. All Canadians should be freely able to fly anywhere in Canada or out of our country.

Protests in Canada and elsewhere openly celebrating the massacre of innocent civilians for the crime of being Jewish reveals how deep currents of antisemitism have been allowed to develop in western societies. These protestors must be universally condemned.

It makes no sense to force people flying into Canada to take a PCR test when they had to get a negative PCR test, and be fully vaxed, to get on the plane in the first place. My message to Ottawa: It’s time for some common sense here. Time to end PCR testing on arrival.
