In case you forgot, it’s been 1,763 days since the UCP government promised to create a platform with “live tutoring sessions” for struggling students. Students are still waiting. #abed #abpoli #cdnpoli
#abed pre-recorded video tutoring is online for Gr 4-9 students to catch up on important skills and learning they may have fallen behind on due to the pandemic. Live sessions, more grades & subjects coming this year. Free on the e-Tutoring Hub at: new.learnalberta.ca/

$15M every month. That is what this govt is pulling in every month, by stealing the $200 federal disability benefit from AISH clients. Then they cut funding life saving cancer drugs. Yet we have MLAs travelling all over the world, and don’t forget $5400 Booze Cruise.

I'm a born and raised calgarian and I'd happily live under these water restrictions for the rest of my life if it meant getting the UCP out of power. Hope that puts into context how angry we are at you and your government, @AdrianaLaGrange

Albertans are now living the consequences of Danielle Smith's separation referendum. Alberta lost 24,000 jobs in October and unemployment jumped to 7.3 per cent. Business leaders warned her, economists warned her, we warned her. But Danielle Smith put her political future over yours. Albertans deserve a better government. ctvnews.ca/calgary/article/a…

There are three basic rules in our democracy. 1️⃣ Everyone plays by the same rules. 2️⃣ Governments make themselves accountable. 3️⃣ Governments govern for everyone. The UCP is breaking all of them. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/…

Dave Yager…who was appointed to the AER board by @ABDanielleSmith. Coincidentally, he also owns a well cleanup company. This govt has given his company close to half a million of your tax dollars in contracts.
Fossil recognition day should be dedicated to Dave Yager. JFC, these people are lame.

We must all recognize a hard truth: a ruling party gerrymandering electoral boundaries for political advantage is a direct threat to democracy. Rushing legislation without debate to force this through is not normal. Never forget what the UCP has done to Alberta.

You should resign Dani. Start your own party full of only billionaires and trillionaires, with none of the usual concerns over pesky laws and conventions.

The UCP has tripled my utility bill, is actively building an AI data centre in my county, has increased my insurance, has destroyed public healthcare & education. Continues to attack the LGBTQ communities & gives zero facks about the environment. Forced a referendum. Zip it Becca

Can't wait to submit my syllabus to the Government Bureau for Distinguishing How to Think from What to Think. Dumbass government making dumbass laws.
Campus should be a place where students can think freely and debate. That's what Bill 38 is about. If passed, Bill 38 would: ✅ Protect free speech by keeping universities and colleges neutral on political and social issues outside their mandate, while protecting academic freedom 
✅ Make tuition predictable, with maximum tuition amounts for programs and increases capped at two per cent for current domestic students in 2027-28 
✅ Set clear, consistent conduct standards so every student is treated fairly 
✅ Cut red tape for specialized engineering and geoscience professionals Our universities and colleges should teach students how to think, not what to think. Alberta will protect that freedom and keep a great education within reach for everyone.

Look, I dont follow laws, I change them to suit whatever need I have. Cheating and lying is what got me here today. I and my fellow cheaters aren't going away, unless of course we're caught and charged. Lol. I AM A CORRUPT, CRIMINAL!

Our democracy relies on keeping higher education and research free from political interference. To protect democratic values, post-secondary institutions must maintain complete autonomy and independence from government control. Alberta deserves better than the UCP.

Danielle Smith is the first Alberta Conservative in history who cannot win Calgary. This is why she is trying to cheat with the electoral boundaries.
