This sadly demented man doesn't realize *he* was president on Jan 6, 2021. Get him in an assisted living facility ASAP.

Budgetary pressures? Unpaid days off? Not affect health care? We’re not that stupid. How could it not affect healthcare? #DanielleSmith at it again. What is it? Thursday? #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Nail on head. I just read something in one of the MAGA publications about Alberta sending secret negotiating group to talk turkey with their illustrious leaders. Makes me ill. We see a lot of it but I believe there’s so much more we aren’t privy to.

I may be just blue skying it here, but I’m a proud Liberal in rural Alberta. There are more of us out there than I originally thought. It’s embarrassing being “led” by this moron.

Hoekstra doesn’t get it. Make all the changes you want in the States. It’s not about pre-clearances. It’s about respect or lack of it.

Leave health decisions to the people involved. You should have ZERO say in anyone’s health care but your own. Back off and leave these already persecuted kids alone.
