2/ But since COVID, combined with inflation, a minimum wage that remains frozen at $15/hr (the lowest in Canada), and cutbacks to income support and other provincial programs, I’m now seeing not just hunger among children, but starvation. Emaciated children. #abpoli

3/ And if you witness this, you're a Dr or social worker, see what happens when parents call Emergency Social Services or Income Support. The apathy and meagre assistance offered is disgusting. #abpoli

The UCP government have been in power for SIX years.
Now, ask yourself:
⬇️ Is your healthcare better?
⬇️ Is your cost of living lower?
⬇️ Is your rent or mortgage more affordable?
⬇️ Is our education system stronger?
What, honestly, is better now than it was six years ago?

This is an email that is reportedly a complaint letter to Elections Alberta that seems to make some very serious allegations...
Given the degree to which the UCP have alleged ill intent in the recall process, this needs to be addressed quickly.

I was in first year university when these women were killed in an anti-feminist attack at École Polytechnique de Montréal. Most of the victims were engineering students, along with one employee. This is why I care about representation. I earned it so did they.

On this day in 1997, the Ottawa Treaty was signed. It aimed to eliminate the use of anti-personnel landmines around the world. To date, 166 countries have signed or acceded to the treaty. The United States, China, Russia and India are among the nations who did not sign it.

$500M in public money went to Algoma Steel and now 1,000+ jobs are gone. The Liberals say they support workers, but this is what happens when their bailouts reward corporations instead of families. We need federal projects using Canadian steel and stronger EI for workers who get left behind.

Picked up a disabled woman last night who was told to go to a shelter. She states that she has been sexually assaulted and refuses the shelter. An emergency social worker wouldn't do anything else for her.
Thanks to your donations, I was able to get her a room and some food.
