Conflicted here…
Smith is a populist pure and simple
More Albertans should be telling her directly how unpopular her governing is
More people need to take a stance and say no more to her corrupt ignorant and harmful policies
Suggest a more civil: Shove Your Fascist Pancakes

You purposely omitted that the man who died was Canadian. Nicolas Dale was a Canadian firefighter. He died this week fighting the wild fire in Colorado.
Every wildfire season, aerial firefighters put themselves in harm’s way to protect our communities and support the men and women on the ground battling dangerous fires.
Today, we mourn the loss of Nicholas Dale, who gave his life while supporting response efforts on the Gold Mountain Fire. My prayers are with his family and loved ones, his fellow aviators, and everyone in the wildland firefighting community grieving this tragic loss.
Nicholas answered the call to serve others, knowing the risks that come with that service. We are grateful for his sacrifice, and we honor his memory.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Context needed: the firefighter was a Canadian volunteer. cbc.ca/news/canada/br…

Health numbers, licenses and caution:
the new Alberta ID cards and the quiet repeal/split of FOIP into ATIA and POPA. On paper, it looks like administrative housekeeping. There is more to it than that in terms of data epidemiology - it's a concern. Let's break it down. 👇

Look. This is Pierre Poilievre pretending to be half of a ‘young Calgary couple’ with their child, staged with his former girlfriend & a borrowed baby, to promote Ezra Levant’s campaign. It says everything you need to know about the ‘integrity’ of the leader of our Opposition.

Heads up.
Alberta's Privacy Commissioner has shared new guidance for anyone getting a new provincial ID/health care card.
Diane McLeod says the cards will create new risks for Albertans and their private information.

"I have grave concerns about how this number was reached and the fairness of the process itself."
Corb Lund says he was shocked by the number of signatures rejected by Elections Alberta on his anti-coal petition, adding he was also not surprised given government changes and roadblocks, calling the process unreasonable and opaque.

Hey America, WW3 happened. You missed it. You were distracted by an orange squirrel packing in the nuts.

BTW this is really worth reading- for a glimpse into the sprawling ‘alternative-fact’ machinery impacting all of us, funded heavily by one of the planet’s richest men, Koch Industries’ Charles G. Koch.

PM @JustinTrudeau had to bypass Doug Fraud to jump start housing in Ontario, so he made deals with cities and they are getting built in mine.
Ford got all upset that he was left out in the cold. cc @MarkJCarney is doing the same because Doug Ford is a corrupt jerk. @FordNation

The federal government is putting people in prison for 50 years for being antifascist & wants to round up and institutionalize disabled people—while a trillionaire shitposts about how many million Black people he murdered.
MFs are overplaying their hand.
It’s going to get ugly.

(Not surprising based on what happened in Quebec)
