The UCP has removed the right for teachers to bargain with #Bill2. With this, the UCP has indicated that they will do the same to any Alberta worker and, eventually, take action to remove more of Albertans' fundamental rights.

Maybe I'm still too young to posit this, but I am certain that I will *never, ever ever ever* see something like this posted about a UCP MLA. #ableg #abpoli

On Facebook, of all places. 100+ comments of wonderful stories and memories, and some people connecting with the teachers they're referring to in their posts.

The Trump regime is building a camp to send homeless Americans. This is bad.

This story deserves more attention. The UCP govt handed over tens of millions of taxpayer dollars and is now refusing to explain why.

Nous attendons toujours que votre gouvernement prenne position concernant l'utilisation par Alberta de la "Notwithstanding Clause."

Taking food from the hungry and healthcare from the sick are deliberate and sadistic acts of inflicting pain, suffering and shortening lives – en masse.

And sadism never exists in isolation, it's always accompanied by psychopathy-sociopathy (ASPD).

Where is your government's statement about the UCP's abuse of the Notwithstanding Clause? Asking for 5M fellow Alberta residents. #ableg #abpoli #yeg #yyc

Apparently, Buckingham Palace is done pretending that they didn't know that their now, former prince, is a pedophile.

When will America do the same with their current president?

All Alberta government public servants were told to return to office full time on Friday. No more work from home, despite some promises in the recently inked collective agreement. None of that was reported anywhere. When Ontario did it and the feds tried, it was national news.

Amazon just announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year.

UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year.

Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M.

This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The ATA can canvas teachers to get an accurate look at class seizes now. I believe that Support Our Students did this a few years ago.

I'm waiting for you and PM Carney to release a statement on the egregious actions taken by the UCP government against workers' rights via #Bill2. I'm starting to feel that your government doesn't care. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli #yeg

It must be some kind of record to poll this low when you have never formed government. 👀

A line graph titled “Approval ratings: Pierre Poilievre.” It shows survey results from January 2023 to October 2025 on whether Canadians approve or disapprove of how Pierre Poilievre, leader of the Conservative Party of Canada, is handling his job. The blue line represents “Disapprove,” rising from 66% in April 2023 to 70% in October 2025. The green line represents “Approve,” fluctuating between 33–39% before falling to 30% in October 2025. Text at the bottom shows “Disapprove: 70” and “Approve: 30.” The base notes that data is from Canadians surveyed October 22–24, 2025 (n=1,199, margin of error ±2.8%).

I'm interviewing Gil Mcgowan, prez of Alberta Federation of Labour, about the Canadian labour movement's response to Danielle Smith invoking the Notwithstanding Clause to end the Alberta teachers' strike.

Constitutional crisis, indeed.

Danielle Smith is using the notwithstanding clause to protect herself while crushing individuals' Charter rights.

That’s not freedom, that’s cowardice.

And Albertans won’t stand for it.
