Agree. Pretty bummed about that.
And really angry over the voter suppression happening with these idiotic new voter registry and ID rules implemented by the UCP. The lines were ridiculous. Lots of people gave up and left. Not okay at all.

I have been seeing way too many posts reporting people leaving without voting because they could not wait that long. This is active voter suppression.

Those of you standing in long lines for municipal elections in Alberta today:

1) stay in line; your voice matters
2) the long lines are a direct consequence of the conspiracy-driven policy changes brought forward by the UCP government (and not your beleaguered election workers); be kind

We're going to talk about c19 today and I'm going to ask you all in advance to not zone out like you do when we're talking about it in person😑

Covid not "a cold" - it attacks every system of the body, making it weaker to every other kind of infection. There's another illness that does similar.
Gee, it almost seems like they don't want you to get vaccinated.....
I hear you, friend. SO MANY frustrated Albertans trying to sort this out right now. It should not be this difficult.
We’re paying more for a worse experience.
The UCP has decided to import the American culture war obsession with voter fraud (which is not a problem and never has been), and now we have time-consuming redundant forms to fill out at the poll stations, making for very long wait times.
YES!!!
Now we need to get to work on cleaning the air in our overcrowded schools.
Health Canada puts out guidelines recommending N95s and clean indoor air!

Let’s do this!

Yes it’s overdue, and no it doesn’t address every risk factor, but we can significantly curb COVID with respirator use and clean air.

Only if the old white guys are also bigoted, hatemongering christian nationalists.
I'm seeing posts from people saying that the only way to book seems to be through the 811 line, but that it's taking insane amounts of time to get through to anyone.
So she created her own echo chamber, programmed and selected participants to say exactly what she wanted to hear, and uses this as "proof" that Albertans want a police force run under her. Got it. Typical shameless UCP grifting.
Also failing at environmental protection, resource management, water conservation, and basic economic stability, just off the top of my head. Point in any direction, there's a steaming pile of UCP incompetence and grifting.

Covid vaccines may come with a tantalizing benefit that has nothing to do with the virus they’re designed to protect against: boosting the immune system to better fight tumors during cancer treatment.

This is SUCH an important point. Most people are worried about climate change: but most people feel helpless and think nothing’s being done (so why should they do anything?)

This is why my weekly newsletter always includes good news on climate solutions as well as actions we can take!

I'm reposting this daily to inform you that you only have until December 15, 2025 to order your #COVID #Flu shots for NEXT year - 2026-2027.
🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them.

This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people ..

Just to be incredibly clear, any government that wants a thriving economy and people to be healthy would make it as EASY as possible to get vaccinated: outreach and drop-in vaccination clinics in schools, workplaces, shopping malls, places of faith, and so on.

This preorder nonsense is anti-life.

One year I made a T-rex head out of foam with textured dinosaur-skin pebbled felt and a thousand burnt fingertips from a glue gun. The next year I bought a spooky black robe for $5 and slapped on reflective patches wherever I could so he didn't get run over. Equal fun both years. For him. Me? 🦖😭/👻😊
