All hands on deck until Danielle Smith's manufactured, self-serving crisis is abated.

The fear is real. The despair is real. The sense of hopelessness is real. And all of these things have been exacerbated by choices made by the government that are simultaneously deliberate and utterly thoughtless. /7

An Alberta manโ€ฆ appears to have died by suicide after sending a lengthy message to government officials, media and advocates criticizing the transition from AISH to a new disability program.โ€ #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli ctvnews.ca/calgary/article/mโ€ฆ

I just made steak for myself twice the other week. You know why? Because I'm smart enough to look for deals. Alberta separatism, if anything, will make our food prices skyrocket. Keep food affordable! Vote to stay in our country, Canada. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
Just 4 years ago, this was a weekly or bi-weekly occurance at our household. Now, I can't remember the last time I sank my teeth into a steak. Canada has taken the meat out of our mouths. Albertans, if you want to taste your own damned cattle again, vote to start the process to leave on Oct 19.

Trying to break apart the country? "It's about democracy! You shouldn't be mean to separatists." A sovereign government making its own immigration policies? "Treason!" This is why you can't take people like Chipiuk seriously. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli
Treason. ๐ŸŽฏ

Not according to the Bible. Genesis 19 narrates the sin of Sodom as men using the threat of raping other men as a means of emasculating & shaming them. Ezekiel adds to it the refusal to aid the poor & needy. You donโ€™t know jack about your Bible & you need to grow the fuck up.

If you want more of this, I'll be at Audreys books tonight talking separatism at my book launch.
Does Alberta have a unique culture? @tylerrdawson explores 120 years of prairie populism, western alienation, and separatist sentiment in his new book The Republic of Alberta. ๐Ÿ‘€ FULL: rtrj.info/061026Tyler ๐ŸŽง FULL: rtrj.info/061026 #abpoli #cdnpoli #RealTalkRJ

Hey Rob, remind me where Danielle Smith worked from 1999 to 2009 and 2015 to 2021.
Dreams do come true Sean! It just shows if you dedicate every day in your media career inventing creative anti-UCP narratives and torquing stories, the Alberta NDP will find a way to repay your loyalty. We knew youโ€™d get there one day big guy. Congrats! @CityNewsYEG

Wait, so ALBERTA IS BOOMING โ€ฆ under the oppressive federal yoke? Under the Nine Bad Laws? You mean the richest province in Canada is getting even richer? Clearly thereโ€™s no alternative but to bust up the country. Iโ€™d respond directly but the premierโ€™s chief of staff blocked me.

Wow. Wow. Wow. Neither the premier (who says sheโ€™ll campaign for Canada), nor separatist leaders (who say theyโ€™ll take out the premier) have the support of those who will vote with them on October 19. A stunning rebuke of both.

To effect constitutional change, you must pass 4 hurdles: 1. 7/10 provinces with 50% of the population. 2. Majority vote in HoC 3. Majority vote in senate 4. Quebec essentially has a de facto veto voteโ€ฆ If we canโ€™t effect change from WITHIN, perhaps we should explore WITHOUTโ€ฆ.
In 2021, 61.7% of Albertans voted to remove equalization from the Constitution. Premier Kenney asked Ottawa and the Premiers to act. They ignored us. Nothing changed. Nothing. Albertans should understand this: the other nine Oct referendum questions do not create any binding obligation on Ottawa to act. None. They are political statements, not legal leverage. Only an independence referendum compels Canada to confront Albertaโ€™s unfair treatment.

I've lived my entire life in Alberta. I was born & raised here. I played on the Legislature grounds before I knew what the building was. The fact is that I'm only sharing the opinion of the vast majority of Albertans. I'm Albertan through & through. #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

You having the a trans flag in your profile and thinking you speak for Albertans is pure insanity. Why dont you go somewhere youre wanted? You probably hate the Alberta mentality and culture cause it openly rejects your disgusting ideology. But you act like you speak for us?

#ableg How much does access to Danielle Smith cost? $525 per person $10,000 for a VIP table The party cutting womenโ€™s shelters and capping income support charges more for one fundraiser than most Albertans earn in a week This is who the UCP works for And it isnโ€™t you.

I keep hearing from Alberta separatists that the status quo is unacceptable and nothing ever changes in Canada. Well look at this bumper sticker that was prominent in the early 2000s. All of them are gone.
