I’ve been at this for nearly 28 years. I have my dream job. But if you had told me 28 years ago things would be this toxic I would have done something else.

For those who don't remember, this tweet was from when Danielle Smith was leader of the Wildrose party and there was a massive tainted-beef scandal at an Alberta slaughterhouse.

1.8 million kg of meat was recalled due to E. coli

18 people fell ill; some needed "extensive hospitalization"

Smith when asked about the RCMP investigation into the corrupt care scandal...

"The main dispute is about whether or not we should have alternative service providers giving services to Albertans or not"

No Dani.

It's about concerns of corruption.

Allegedly, Smith's staff pressured health officials to approve over half a billion dollars in private health care contracts to a businessman who bought them seats in NHL luxury boxes in return for the favour. Then Smith fired a CEO who tried to investigate.

No other premier in Alberta history could survive 48 hours under the cloud of suspicion Smith now faces. Over half a billion dollars makes Sky Palace look like a sandcastle.

If her cabinet and MLAs aren't meeting to discuss, it's a dereliction of duty. www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

It's absolutely sickening to see, already, Alberta UCP cultists and right wingers dismissing the AG/AHS and TBA scandal involving Smith.
If it was the NDP, they'd be out with pitchforks, and rightfully so! But when it's Smith, they couldn't give a shit. 1/3 🧵 #ableg #abpoli

MAGA doesn't know that "Italian roast" means the process of heating a green coffee bean grown in places like Colombia to turn it brown and give it a flavor, not literally growing the beans in Italy.

Today’s show was my last at CNN. My closing message: It’s never a good time to bow down to a tyrant… don’t give in to the lies. Don’t give in to fear. Hold on to the truth… and hope.

1. Our institutions are ~robust~ despite efforts to ding em
2. THERE ARE NO TRAITORS IN PARLIAMENT
3. Disinformation is the REAL threat

~Alberta is being raped by the UCP, lobbyists, and fossil fuel industries.
“lobbying records & corporate documents show that communication between the coal industry & government departments on the remaking of Alberta’s coal policy has been continuous and extensive. And it appears to have been influential”

A very smart colleague just pointed out the grim truth that the U.S. leaving the WHO may ultimately be a win for the rest of the world. Why? Because without a vote, “the US can't block WHO actions like vaccine programs, disease surveillance, contraception, etc”. Man, that is daaaark, but accurate.
