They tried. It's too bad they suck at everything they do.
Once upon a time, Alberta bought $80M of Turkish medication. Health workers have now been told not to use it. “It’s not an ideal product,” said one. The Parol supply is expected to expire in 2026. #ableg #abhealth

Here are monthly absolute temperatures (compared to anomalies). This September would not have been out of place as a typical July this decade in terms of global temperatures.
If you like voting for chubby bears, it's time to weigh in on the chunkiest chonks at Brooks Falls.

The 2023 #FatBearJunior Champion, 806Jr. faces off against 428, who gained her girth after a 3 season apprenticeship with the river's best angler. It’s cub versus sub.

Investors love to find “hockey stick” growth. The energy transition places you in the middle of 4 at once. That’s what a generational shift looks like.

A heads-up for Albertans considering what to do about their power rate options.
Come March 2024, the RRO is expected to be at or below current fixed price offers (~12c/kWh)
The power price crisis of 2021-2023 is *nearly* finished. Very soon a floating price will be preferred.
Hi @edmontonpolice
Do you take reports of commercial vehicles driving 25kph+ over the limit in construction zones while harassing other vehicles?

It’s the tubby tenacious tank, 806Jr vs the salmon-slurping 2nd season cub 910Jr in the #FatBearJunior final! Will 910Jr overwhelm the opposition & keep the Fat Bear Junior crown in the family? Will 806Jr crush his competitor to topple the Beadnose dynasty? [email protected]

UCP in 2019:
The NDP are "fearmongering about blackouts and price spikes" on our decision to return to an energy only market.
UCP in 2023:
The near blackouts and prices spikes are the fault of the NDP.

NEW - BC will be reinstating enhanced infection prevention and control measures in health care settings going into effect on October 3.
This includes continuous medical masking by health care workers, visitors, contractors, and volunteers in all care areas. #bcpoli
To all the people referencing the Quebec Pension Plan as a reason for Alberta to have one...
Just because someone else did something stupid, doesn't mean you have to follow.

Despots and autocrats hate nothing more than having their falsehoods clearly laid bare. If India is upset, we've probably done the right thing here.
Modi/India is *furious* with Trudeau/Canada.
Okay, and?
Do you suggest we welcome MBS to, I don't know, abduct, murder, and dismember a Saudi-Canadian on Canadian soil for the 'crime' of opposing MBS and the Saudi regime?
To keep with the nice-making, and all.

The direct answer is heck no, Alberta should not withdraw from the CPP, but Trevor states it in a much more politically neutral way in his thread.
Should Alberta withdraw from the Canada Pension Plan? It's a major policy question with complex pros and cons. I'll help unpack the issues, based on a new paper I'm happy to share today! 🧵 🤓 #cdnecon #cdnpoli #ableg

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE MINERALS?? The Washington Post takes a careful look at minerals requirements for electric vehicles and answers the key question, are electric cars really better for the environment? Definitively: yes! washingtonpost.com/climate-e…

You know what's even better than paying parents of Calgary children who got sick from E.coli at daycare? Putting money towards health codes etc so that kids don't get E.coli at daycare in the first place. cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/a…

This statement is weak. The conduct is more than shocking and this sounds like both siding a criminal act. No qualifier needed
What happened to @atRachelGilmore is called stalking and it’s a crime. Also I’m sorry if you think this is shocking you aren’t paying attention
This kind of conduct towards @atRachelGilmore is shocking.
You may disagree with people's views or reporting. That is fair criticism. But at the end of the day, journalists are also human beings. Efforts to harass and intimidate are beyond the bounds of acceptable behaviour.
