Dr. Tailfeathers speaks to the excitement that was present in the hiring of Dr Deena Hinshaw. Says that Danielle Smith directly called to have her position terminated. Says there's a pattern of interference and that the term "Harm reduction" was ordered out of AHS documents.

And it looks like the rumors are true! There's a grassroots group that is hosting a press conference right now speaking directly to the corrupt care scandal and the former AHS CEO's lawsuit! Let's follow along! /thread! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

As a social worker, this was the worst week of my career. I have never responded to so many drug poisonings and mental health calls in one week. Our community deserves better.

I am alarmed treatment centres in Alberta, including treatment programs on FIrst Nations are adjusting their policies and barring persons in custodyto apply for treatment. This includes those onrRemand Status & the persumption of Innocence seems to be nothing more than a footnote. #cdnpoli #abpoli

Read @RebeccaSolnit and absorb that hope is not a bird in the sky you hope lands near you, it’s an active orientation. You find it in the care for someone else or something else outside of yourself. It’s bigger than you. It’s an act of cultivation. Rub two sticks together.

1. Danielle Smith ordered EVERY shipment of the $80m MHCare Medical/Atabay children's acetaminophen boondoggle to be AIRLIFTED at taxpayer expense. 2. It's likely these airlifts were handled by MHCare Medical too, with their usual profiteering off the Gov of Alberta. 🧵

Just a reminder. Medical experts make medical decisions. Politicians are not medical experts.

Excellent interview that every Albertan should watch 👇 Dr. Parks is just finished his tenure as president of the AMA and negotiations with government. His insights on why we are seeing deterioration of our healthcare in Alberta are an eye opener. #abhealth #ableg

A reminder to @ABDanielleSmith You have told Albertans you “understand” because you have a close family member who is a youth dealing with gender identity. Think about how Jennifer Johnson feels about them every time you look them in the eye. #fujj #protecttransyouth
It’s officially official. Despite Smith’s initial stance that Johnson would not be allowed into caucus, despite the condemnation from multiple LGBTQ2S+ groups in her constituency, Jennifer Johnson will sit a a UCP MLA. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

"“It is a very unilateral and colonialistic approach,” said Tailfeathers." Few people hold the deep medical and social understanding Dr. Tailfeathers brings to the concern. Her opinions ought to carry far more weight than they have been given. Greed is not a recovery plan.

Unhoused people are victims of homelessness, not the cause of homelessness. Demonizing them won’t actually get rid of homelessness.

We’re pro-choice. We believe if a woman chooses to get an abortion, accessing one should be simple. So, we’ve launched a website with information about abortion: different types, how they’re funded, and where to get one near you. canada.ca/en/public-health/s…
