So Jesse Watters is hot for Stephen Miller.

They both give me the heebies, but if they're into it, cool. No judgement.

Today, I drove the Unity Bus to Red Deer, Innisfail, Sylvan Lake, Rimbey and Rocky Mountain House. Alberta is energized by the #ForeverCanadian movement.

Volunteers, thank you for your hard work and commitment to Canada!

We’re proving that political engagement can be positive.

When RCMP Sergeant pulls up behind the #ForeverCanadian Unity Bus, it’s not to write a ticket, it’s to sign the petition.

Thank you, Officer!!!

All of this. I read somewhere that if we taxed the wealthiest of us just 2% per year, all of that would be solved. They wouldn't even feel it, that's the most damnable part.

Homeless people are not the enemy.

They can’t “just try harder” their way into housing.

It’s the system that’s failing.

Most of us are one emergency away from being homeless ourselves.

We need affordable housing, universal basic income, healthcare & social supports.

We need a safety net

Smith and the UCP need to go and FUCK OFF 🤬

Canadian In Alberta @canadianinalberta.bsky.social · 6d

This "Eby goes off the rails" statement is wild

Smith is putting at risk billions of dollars worth of projects that he's been working on

He sounded frustrated to me
& I know how he feels

Smith is, was, and will always be, an embarrassment to Albertans

This is a slippery slope

If the CPC want to follow Trump I suggest they move to the US

Elections Alberta has approved a citizen-initiated petition application to gather signatures in support of the proposal to end public funding to independent/private schools.

Calgary teacher Alicia Taylor says she brought it forward because it could help improve funding for public schools. #AbEd

Alberta teacher prompts petition on province's private school funding | CBC News

If high school chemistry teacher Alicia Taylor gets her wish, Albertans will vote in a referendum on whether to end public funding for independent schools.

Today, I’m off on the #ForeverCanadian Unity Bus to Wetaskiwin, Ponoka, Lacombe, Calmar and Leduc.

It is important to me that all Albertans have an opportunity to show their support for Canada by signing the petition.

See you there!!!

Evan! 🙌

Feeling so inspired and hopeful after meeting with Evan Li. What an incredible young man.

Thank you for using your voice, Evan, and thank you for encouraging so many others to do the same.

Today, and every day, we stand with students and we stand with teachers.

Great NEWS for #ForeverCanadian

Court agreed that canvassers’ affidavits are not required. No one should have to pay for participating in a democratic process.

Now you can hand in your petitions without affidavits.

Thank you Elections Alberta for agreeing with this decision.

Pardon my language but this video is a fuc*ing political abortion.
Poilievre is literally stoking fear and terror for political gain.

This bill he’s talking about runs afoul of the Charter and numerous SCC rulings.

Enough is enough.
I’m sick of crap like this tearing the country apart.
