Deleted a tweet where we incorrectly attributed Smiths claims today regarding the board chair as the AER board chair instead of AESO.

The story changes again!

When asked about the renewables pause, it’s no longer 5 guys nodding that pushed Smith to freeze renewable development and dump investment!

Today she seems to claim that it was the AESO board chair!

Who will be next?

Unifor local 4001 has come out condemning Nenshi’s 2019 letter to the UCP.

Smith today…

When asked on whether Albertans should be concerned about abortion rights and access to abortion…

Sound familiar?

'To me, it's just deliberate misrepresentation of the advice received — and I'll put it as bluntly as that,' he said.

'No doubt in my mind: it was a political decision, not an expert-driven decision.'

Meanwhile, as the UCP tabled a bill to effectively take over municipalities that dare to declare a state of emergency…

Hinton appears to be considering doing exactly that due to the ongoing lack of health care.

Explicitly to get help from the province.

Yeah, nothing worse than performative fake measures, right?

Hey can anyone put together a 30 second video that makes it crystal clear they’ve completely lost the plot?

Cronyism is just another way that democracy is eroded.

Journalists are desperately needed to call it out when it happens.

This story by Charles Rusnell is stunning!

Can anyone tell us what contracts Unifor has with the city of Calgary?

Cause it looks like the author of the letter (who is the brother of an NDP MLA, same MLA who is a key Ganley campaign team member) doesn’t have any city contracts…

UCP - “Albertans continue to say “Spring forward, fall back” and it’s been making Dani nervous so we’re hedging our bets”.

UCP in 2021 - “Alberta has fixed election dates! We’ve written it in stone!”

Also UCP - “We found the stone eraser, but you can totes trust us on the rules for a referendum around the pension!”
