Baldwin: Our farmers are facing incredible headwinds. A lot of the fertilizer inputs come from Canada. Those have shot up because of tariffs. About a quarter of all farmers use the ACA for their health care coverage. This president is just contributing to the headwinds that our farmers are facing.

Smith and the UCP have been lying to Albertans about how much of the CPP $$$ they would get upon separation to cover up how devastating socially and economically sepoaration would be. Also - being part of the USA would be horrible.

The UCP is sick and twisted. Why don't they try actually working to benefit Abertans instead of this bigoted horseshit?

This sexist policy will affect more cis-gender girls and transgender. Any girl that is taller, stronger, and tougher might get singled out.
Also, good way to take out the best players of the opposing team for a few weeks.
Conservatives are preoccupied with girls genitals. This is sick.
