Wherein Tanya Fir refers to the next caller on her “callback list” as the “next motherfucker"...

Not knowing that next person was a journalist.

After she failed to hang up the phone properly.

Just the most competent government ever.

Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?

An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

I remember when conservatives turfed premiers for this level of hubris.

@senatorpaulasimons.bsky.social just listened to you and @marnipanas.bsky.social on Real Talk. It was eye-opening, and I am writing my MP in hopes she can support this important initiative. We need a Canadian solution to NEXUS. Thanks for your advocacy!
If Canadians, travelling domestically, want to use the "good" security line at the airport, they need a NEXUS card, even if they aren't going to the US. And they need the blessing of Donald Trump's Homeland Security apparatus to get one. I'm calling on Canada to end this absurdity. #Canada #NEXUS
Why we need a Made-In-Canada Verified Traveller Program

She sat there when McAllister said it. She sat there when the student’s mic was turned off, and when McAllister basically suggested the student should’ve been beat more as a child.

The Premier of Alberta sat there and did nothing.

If that it’s not tacit approval, what is?

Imagine claiming the Alberta Next Panel is about ensuring respect from Ottawa and ensuring all voices are heard, and then you yell at a young Albertan publicly that he needs to be spanked for asking a fair question and expressing an opinion.

Absolute peak hypocrisy.

This UCP government treats public educators like absolute shit, every chance they get.

“Hey - help us ban books by creating a digital library of every book in your classroom. And do that on your own time, without pay. By the way, don’t even thing about striking. We’ll lock your asses out.” #ableg

Dystopian novels axed: Handmaid's Tale, Brave New World... heaps of Margaret Laurence, a class staple in my youth...
And a libertarian like Danielle Smith would be intrigued to see Ayn Rand's Fountainhead and Atlas Shrugged on the banned books list.
CORRECTION.

The UCP has not banned just over 100 books from Edmonton Schools.

If this list is accurate, they have banned over 200.

Here is the list we have been provided.

27 years ago, two years after the introduction of effective HIV treatment, the Bay Area Reporter, San Francisco’s lesbian and gay community newspaper, ran ‘No Obits’ as its headline.
It was the first edition not to report an AIDS death in almost 15 years.

In the same week it came to light a journalist was stalked…

The highest unelected member of the Alberta government is actively trying to invalidate and suppress pretty much all journalists.

How’s your democracy today?

From story on Alberta journalist intimidation:
When a Globe reporter asked Ms. Smith about the story ... she said “I’m not talking about that” and laughed as she walked away.
In an interview with CTV later in the day, she said, “I condemn it.”

Canada should totally be a member of the EU.

Hey EU, UK, Mexico etc you guys seem smart, funny and reliable trading partners who don’t illegally break relatively recent trade agreements by imposing ridiculously high tariffs to start a trade war against long-time partners & allies while plunging your nation into fascism.

Wanna do more trade?

Alberta as we know it today simply would not exist without the millions of immigrants and refugees who built it, who loved it, and who were proud to call it home - including my grandparents and my mum. This bitter xenophobia is as unAlbertan as it’s possible to be. I’m ashamed. I’m disgusted.

Today, an avowed separatist leader from Quebec called for Canadian unity.

Meanwhile, an avowed federalist from Alberta went out of her way to make it easier to launch a sovereignty referendum in her province.

Power's a hell of a drug.
