“Alberta’s government is considering spending $6 billion to redirect existing natural gas pipelines toward data centres and build a new transmission pipeline to serve them (data centers).”
This is the first I’ve heard about taxpayers paying to redirect and build LNG pipelines!!!

Canada just received its second consecutive Fossil award, outing our poor climate record. PM Carney now ID’d as a top 3 international climate danger. No wonder he’s skipping COP31.
Worst part? He knows better, but is clearly captured by the oil and gas lobby.

Experts finally acknowledge what we at the AFL have been saying for years: the oil and gas industry is making massive profits and breaking production records, while at the same time shedding jobs for Albertans AND constantly playing the victim.

No faction of the Democratic Party can declare victory after the midterms. The Republican implosion is so great that all Dem factions won, from democratic socialists to corporate centrists. Fascism is not defeated by one election (it can always be reconstituted into something even more dangerous…) but it can be, and we know how to do it. With left economic populism. Too radical? Wrong. One of Trump’s most significant legacies is that he exploded the Overton window. Anything is possible - for worse and for better. That means Democrats no longer have any excuse not to run on - and deliver - the policies that will actually meet people’s basic needs and address our most pressing crises, from systemic political corruption to climate breakdown. Bold, people-first policies is how we beat back fascism for real.

Doerkson can only afford to banish so many MLAs before it splits the party.
The new premier has a large majority. But a sizable populist wing brings political dangers and incentives.

Governments don't generally impose time limits on motions they are confident in defending. So for the UCP to have just 1 hour of debate on their new electoral map, it's an indication this whole thing is exactly what we think it is — cheating. #ableg

The NDP won just ONE election, interrupting decades of uninterrupted Conservative rule, and it spooked them so bad that they welcomed traitors, terrorists, and extremists under their banner
Now they're fixing elections
Those are all things that happen in one-party dictatorships

In most established democracies, including over 80% of the OECD, proportional representation means a result like this would deny Ford’s PCs a majority, forcing cooperation.
Under first-past-the-post, it delivers Ford another majority to govern unchecked.

"The time has long since passed for principled conservatives to stand up to far-right politics in Alberta. This is no longer about ends over means. If we cannot win elections without cheating, we don’t deserve to win. No, now it is about whether conservatives are willing to conserve democracy itself. "
