Can we please stop yelling affordability crisis right left and centre when #yyccc has thrown 800 millions of taxpayers money at an arena without even blinking.

Good lord.

Do you know what? Thomas A. Lukaszuk is right I’ve been thinking about this all wrong. He’s 100% right. I fucking hate PP and I’m sick of having hate in my heart for people I would Generally, and should respect.

Veteran CBC News reporter Jean Laroche took the photo below (a lone reporter, michael gorman, interviewing a cabinet minister, surrounded by comms staff). That image prompted him to produce this piece & excellent video on what's changed in #cdnpoli >> cbc.ca/news/canada/no…

No. It’s actually because it’s a non-violent offence and they meet the test for bail that’s been scrutinized by the SCC for Charter compliance multiple times.

To find Canada's net debt, compared to the G7, you have to look waaaaay down at the bottom. The only thing broken in Canada is our media for not calling out conservative BS. #scrapthecrap

1. Lower corp tax rate by 1/4
2. Cry that revenues are too low, cut funding to social programs and municipalities
3. Municipalities forced to raise property tax to make up for the shortfall and to fund the social programs
4. Accuse them of mismanagement

The time for kowtowing to private insurance companies is over.

I will drive down auto insurance costs for Albertans by introducing a public option.

Serious question, what did mayor Jyoti Gondek do to hurt Rick Bell? I get the mayor may be unpopular but it's been a month plus of almost every column being about her in some way. Seems personal. There is so much other stuff going on he could write about.

I may be off the campaign circuit for the Alberta NDP leadership, but I know it is still important for this party to grow to win in 2027.

There isn’t much time left to buy a membership, so get in now!

P.S. memberships only cost $10

Public schools are able to offer an incredible amount of choice in programming.

This government’s chronic underfunding of public education is increasingly putting that choice in programming at risk.

Thank you for putting your ideas forward.

Big day for me. As always, my focus is Alberta economic future

Knowing many who are struggling because of the housing crisis, I'm dumbfounded as to why development has not started at Anderson LRT. City of Calgary developed a plan 10 YEARS AGO!

We are fighting over triplexes, yet we could house 1000's if we started projects on LRT lines.🧵

Agreed we need lots of snow to avoid drought

So do you run the city or does the administration? What's the point of these town halls if it's not to listen?
