No punches pulled from the feds… 👇🏻

Graham Thomson Excellent piece, Graham. This strikes me as a jurisdictional dust-up and many Albertans would not give a fig that the premier is upset about it. 'The feds want to give us money?' they'd say. 'Well, let's not get in their way.'

Danielle Smith's mantra 'More Alberta, Less Ottawa' has become 'More Danielle Smith's Alberta, Less Canada.' My latest column for The Star. #ableg thestar.com/opinion/contri…

The Tyee Alberta You See Pee 🍉✊😷🟠 Graham Thomson Thanks Tyee

You know that RCMP report that Postmedia pundits keep talking about, the one that says Canadians are ready to 'revolt'? It actually says no such thing. But the deliberate conservative framing of it says far, far more -- about them and our future. #cdnpoli nationalobserver.com/2024/03/28/opi…

Rakhi Pancholi drops, endorses Nenshi. If he didn't have the insta-frontrunner vibes before....

ICYMI: Edmonton's first new hospital in 40 years just got iced by the UCP when the system is already in a massive crisis. Imagine what this will look like in 5-10 years, and the govt has no stated plan to fix it. Edmontonians are right to be furious. #yeg edmontonjournal.com/opinion/column…

Is Alberta setting the table for a provincial police force?
