Vaccines are safe and effective.

Autism isn't caused by vaccines, and autistic people and their families deserve our support.

When you want information, ask your doctor.

It's more important than ever for all of us to speak plainly, truthfully, and directly about public health.

This is the kind of reporting that installed Trump in the Whitehouse

Canadians are right pissed at Trump's 51st state crap

Plus he renegotiated NAFTA the first time he was in office and then broke his word in his second term

Canadians aren't hurting US businesses

Virginia Distillery CEO Gareth Moore was bullish on his company's American single malt whisky sales north of the border when 2025 kicked off.

"We were looking to triple the business. Instead, it collapsed to zero," Moore told CNN in a phone interview. https://cnn.it/4ogBglG

This is run amok capitalism

They're trying to break the teacher's union and destroy our universal healthcare

Every time someone drops into my comments asking about a general strike, I have to remind folks that unlike in Europe we have at will employment here allowing essentially anyone to be fired at any time for any reason, and health insurance tied to employment.

The amount of organizing

Lauren, a high school social studies teacher, is putting it all on the line to demand better from the UCP.

Better classrooms.
Better support.
Better public education.

All for Alberta's kids.

Thank you, Lauren.

Amanda's kids go to a school that's 141% over capacity.

A grade 1 classroom with 43 kids, where kids are eating lunch on the floor, and there isn't enough support to go around.

This is unacceptable.
Alberta's kids deserve better.

Canada’s new government is starting Automatic Federal Benefits. We’re going to pre-file taxes for up to 5.5 million low-income Canadians, so they get the benefits they are entitled to — money that would otherwise be left unclaimed.
