Sadly we know Smith and the UCP will do the opposite of what Albertans want. Rinse and repeat. #abpoli
Albertans rejected year-round DST in a referendum in 2021.

A majority of key stakeholders conveyed their dislike of it to the province.

And yet it's happening anyway.

Someone tried to silence us last night by damaging our Unity Bus. All they did was prove why our mission to bring people together is so urgent. It’s time to stop this divisive referendum.The glass is repaired, the engine is running, and we'll see you at our next stop Alberta.

At best, the Elections Alberta is an underfunded, over-employed shambles. At worst, it was responding to government pressure to ensure a desired outcome. If the latter, it’s a 5-alarm fire. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Also the US never puts any former presidents in jail no matter what the do when in power.

#LA01 voters, sadly republican Steve Scalise with his vote on the devastating & cruel One Big Beautiful Bill doesn't seem to be too concerned with those suffering from hunger.

Elect democrat Lauren Jewett @doitjewett.bsky.social , she actually cares!

I saw a UCP talking head on the news complaining that the Progressive Tory Party split the right-wing vote
But he ignored the fact that the Liberals split the left-wing vote

We don't have a two-party system
Left-wing votes = 8063
Right-wing votes = 7857

For the first time since 1966 the @albertandp.ca has taken a seat from the UCP.

@kylecampbellyyc.bsky.social is a genuine person & will be an excellent NDP MLA.

Last night Albertans in Calgary-Shaw sent a LOUD & CLEAR message to the UCP.

This is the beginning of the end for the UCP.

Canada is admired around the world. The advanced nations of Europe seek a closer partnership. Even Trump in his fever dreams imagines Canada as a 51st state. They want *more* Canada.
Meanwhile, with only a vocal minority in favour, Alberta is having a separation referendum. Make it make sense.
