Excellent video. So glad Hislop is documenting all of this for us all to see.
The 'Free Alberta Strategy' Is All Hat, No Cattle — and Embarrassingly Bad

Call it out, folks: intellectual drivel adopted by @abdaniellesmith.

Canada should be dismantled based on these flimsy arguments?

Hell, no.

We're proud Albertans. We're proud Canadians.

If they love this province and this country like we do, signing this pledge is the easiest thing an MLA can do.

What are the UCP waiting for?

We are once again calling on UCP MLAs to sign a straightforward pledge to denounce separatism. As of Friday morning, all 38 of Alberta’s New Democrat MLAs have signed this pledge, and not a single UCP or Independent MLA has, including Premier Smith. (1/5)

Carbon is the New Metal

"Galvorn" is pretty cool. lightweight, strong alternative to copper in wires, steel in transmission lines, and many other materials. As an added bonus, Galvorn is 100% recyclable.

Fun fact: oil, gas are a great source of carbon.

Today’s news that separatists have been conspiring with U.S. officials to undermine Canada is deeply disturbing.

Smith emboldened separatists by cozying up to Trump, weakening our country at a fragile moment when we need to stand firmly against this.

If Canadians, travelling domestically, want to use the "good" security line at the airport, they need a NEXUS card, even if they aren't going to the US. And they need the blessing of Donald Trump's Homeland Security apparatus to get one. I'm calling on Canada to end this absurdity. #Canada #NEXUS
