notice the lack of public agenda for Albertans:
have you heard anything about affordability?
about improving health care?
better schools?
no: it's attacks, going after human rights, gerrymandering, sleezy bullshit.
but here's the thing: they know... hence Friday's leaks.
Between the gerrymandering & the coordinated attacks on Nenshi, it’s clear the UCP are shaken.
ABns see the arrogance of the UCP, the attacks on democracy, public Ed. & HC, the corruption scandals, the lies, & lack of accountability.
#FireTheUCP & let’s expose it all. #Ableg

When you see the speed the UCP acted on the water main investigation versus how little they've done on the MHCare procurement scandal while continually avoid the subject, it sure makes you wonder what a public inquiry would find 🤔 #ableg
Alberta’s government has released an independent inspection report into the City of Calgary’s management of the Bearspaw South Feeder Main, and its findings raise serious questions.
In 2016, while Naheed Nenshi was mayor, he and his chief of staff received a draft-final independent report identifying serious problems with Calgary’s water utility. Nenshi didn’t share the report with city council, which could have spared Calgarians from the chaos of repeated water main breaks and a substantial increase in their water rates.
Nearly a decade later, Calgarians are paying the price: repeated water main breaks, water rates up more than 78%, and $1.1 billion in utility revenues directed into general city revenues.
Naheed Nenshi needs to explain what he knew, when he knew it, and what actions he took. Calgarians deserve answers.

Can we have an election please.

I’m Dr. Paul Parks, and I am officially announcing my bid to represent Cypress-Medicine Hat as your next MLA.
Together, let’s build a future rooted in competence, consultation, and transparency.

Lethbridge goes from 2 MLAs focused on Lethbridge issues, to 4 MLAs who also have constituents as far north as Calgary, as far east as the Sask border, and south to the US?
How is that better? #abpoli

NOW is the time to email Smith and your MLA and refuse to accept the gerrymandered maps.
Will it make a difference? Likely not. But it will be put on record, which is very important!
It only takes 2 minute…unless you get wordy!
Following is Smith’s & your MLA contact info.

The map is as awful as we thought.
Yes the NDP are the ones raising issues because this is a direct attack on the work I personally - and thousands of others - did for the past 15 years.
They’re too lazy to beat us with hard work, so they’ll cheat instead.
Scott Glover 🌱 retweeted
Can someone explain to me why someone in Lethbridge should be voting for the same MLA as the one who represents just south of Strathmore, or Waterton, or High River, or Bow Island?
If you can't explain it without using partisan reasons, that's exactly why they shouldn't #ableg

A letter so rushed, they can't even spell Edmonton correctly.
I mean, I get it. The UCP doesn't have any MLA's from the city. But this is sad, even for them.

You raised city of Calgary’s Provincial tax burden by $340 million but your govt wants a victory lap for now reducing them by a paltry amount. ($40 million)
You want us to cheer??? Or jeer???
We're lowering and freezing provincial education property tax rates across Alberta.
The new rates will standardize and freeze provincial education property tax rates for three years. These changes will help municipalities budget with confidence and give Albertans greater certainty when planning for the years ahead.
Through Budget 2027, we're making changes that will:
✅ Deliver savings: an estimated $98.7 million in savings for Alberta property owners in 2027-28.
✅ Improve fairness: Apply consistent provincial education property tax rates across municipalities.
✅ Provide certainty: Give municipalities a predictable provincial tax rate to plan around when making decisions for their communities.
✅ Protect Albertans: Introduce a one-time transition tax credit in 2027 for property owners in communities where the new provincial rates would otherwise be higher.
No matter where Albertans live, they should be able to count on a fair, consistent and predictable approach to education property taxes.

Launching next week on all your favourite podcast platforms: It Should be Different, a podcast by Dr. Braden Manns. Every episode, I will interview clinicians or others connected to health care and share ideas and perspectives. For those of you in Alberta, you’ll know one of my first guests: emergency room physician…..@PfParks

It’s not a tax break. Danielle Smith is extending her property tax hike to 2030.
Or as @DonBraid put it:
“Fiscal abuse…(The UCP) believe they can bang taxpayers over the head for years, and then make it all better with an ice pack.” #ableg #cdnpoli

How many of our institutions have called out the UCP as corrupt if not criminal now??

Bill 35 is a MASSIVE distraction from an unpopular UCP failing public education
The "Teacher Snitch Line" does ZERO to fix exploding class sizes or complexity. It’s meant to destroy public trust
Fund our schools
Protect our province
Leave the separatist agenda behind
Parents deserve clear, consistent information about their child’s education and confidence that their concerns will be heard.
That’s why we’re introducing Bill 35. If passed, these changes would establish provincial standards for report cards, require greater transparency about how PD and other non-instructional days are used, and require school boards to have processes for addressing parental concerns that remain unresolved. We also plan to develop an online tool to help families navigate concerns.
These changes are about strengthening transparency, accountability and parental involvement across Alberta’s education system.

Nobody asked for this…
Not teachers
