It can no longer be assumed that any bureaucracy represents the people it claims to. The tyranny of the administrative class is endemic. The government is not The People. #tgintp

Milton Friedman: “The government is too big. It’s too intrusive. It restricts what we can do. It’s becoming our master instead of our servant.”

Thomas Sowell NAILS IT. “ Much of the appeal of socialism comes from the fact that it allows people to feel morally superior without having to bear the costs of their policies. It’s easy to advocate ‘sharing’ when someone else pays the price.” Pure truth. Socialism is a scam for virtue signalers who never foot the bill.

"Another mark of a tyrant is that he likes foreigners better than citizens, and lives with them and invites them to his table; for the one are enemies, but the others enter into no rivalry with him." — Aristotle

I have no problem with Islam. I am just against beheadings, stoning, marrying little girls, sexual slavery, taqiyya, slave trading, rape, forced conversions, jihad, burqa, attacking other religions, child abuse, women abuse, animal abuse, multiple wives, murder, Sharia, terrorism, brainwashing, intolerance, greed, anti-science, torture, illiteracy, gluttony, genital mutilation, inbreeding. Does this make me Islamophobic?

A reminder that the Constitution was not written to restrain the citizens' behavior. It was written to restrain the government's behavior.

Elon Musk:”You get taxed on what you earn, you get taxed on what you buy, and you get taxed on what you own. And what does it get spent on? A bunch of stuff you don’t even agree with. That’s why we need to reduce the size of government, spend less money and let the people keep a lot more of their hard-earned money.”

The hypocrisy is limitless.
Congratulations to @CorbLund, the @WaterNotCoalAB volunteers, & to the hundreds of thousands of Albertans who stood up for our Rocky Mountains & for our shared future. When governments refuse to listen, citizens will organize & make themselves impossible to ignore. #WaterNotCoal

Turns out, everything our grandparents thought was cool, is cool. Real food. Guns. Fishing. Hunting. Offensive jokes. Not trusting the government. Raising a family. Peace and quiet. A simple life.

Unelected First Nation Chiefs who demand co-governance with governments in Canada should face full disclosure audits of how they spend taxpayer money. Why would anyone be against this?

Native Chiefs are nothing more than federal bureaucrats in head dresses. They are the administrators of legislated communist reserves (Soviets) on behalf of the feds and they embezzle massive sums from taxpayers and their bands. They deserve no influence or respect because of their title.
Treaty Chiefs are calling for RCMP to investigate Danielle Smith and UCP for possible treason in regards to the sovereignty referendum.

It is going to be very hard to overcome the sheer number of low IQ people we now have out there with views like this. Like they say, you can't fix stupid.
This is absolutely vile. @ABDanielleSmith you should be ashamed of yourself, take some ownership over the position you’ve put Alberta & FN in. The treaty chiefs aren’t the 1st to point out what many have called treasonous behaviour.

200,000 people sign a coal mining petition = "Mr. Speakers Albertans have spoken loudy". 300,000 people sign an independence petition = "Separatists are just a fringe minority, they don't speak for Albertans".

Immediate follow. An emphasis on the US slave trade while ignoring its minor (<4%) role in the Atlantic trade, the vastly larger Islamic trade, and the African slave trade of Europeans, is because it’s all information warfare.

This story should make everyone absolutely furious, for a bunch of different reasons. An 8-year-old girl named Nina Napope was killed in 2023 in Edmonton. She suffered terrible, long-term abuse and died from blunt force trauma. Her body was found in a hockey bag. The woman caring for her, Ashley Rattlesnake, was originally charged with first-degree murder. But the the Crown later agreed to a manslaughter plea deal, meaning they accepted that she caused the death but didn't plan it as murder. WTF? In February 2026, Rattlesnake was sentenced to 8 years in prison. After credit for time already served, she’ll only serve about 3 years and 9 months more. The Edmonton Police were very angry about the manslaughter deal. They believed the evidence showed it was murder. For the first time ever, they wrote a strong official letter to the Crown, basically saying "This is a miscarriage of justice." They viewed the abuse as extreme, and threatened to release all their detailed evidence to the public. They wanted the case to be tied in the court of public opinion. This was highly unusual. Oolice are not supposed to pressure prosecutors like this. What actually happened? The Crown did NOT change the manslaughter plea. The deal stayed the same. The case went to sentencing. The judge was furious at the police for sending that letter. She called their actions “reprehensible” and said it was wrong for police to try to interfere. Because of the police letter, the judge reduced the sentence by 1 year as a penalty. So the woman actually got a lighter punishment than she might have otherwise. Now, Alberta’s police watchdog (ASIRT) is investigating the Edmonton Police for their unusual letter and conduct. Bottom line: the police tried to publicly shame and pressure the Crown to get a harsher charge/sentence, but it backfired. The plea didn’t change, and the sentence was made shorter partly because of what the police did. Many people are upset that the punishment seems too light for such a brutal crime against a child. If judges are willing to do this to the police, what hopes do any of us who challenge the system have? globalnews.ca/news/11900278/…

The town of Sundre Alberta canceled a parade because a handful of councilors consider the Alberta flag too divisive. Let that sink in.

Spoken like a true dependent of the state. Just like Jeromy. These are the only people advocating for the utterly pointless federalist system. Defending their gravy train.
🤦‍♀️because it will negatively affect business and commerce in Calgary on multiple levels and that absolutely is his role and responsibility. He would be remiss in his duty to Calgarians if he did not warn them of the repercussions of separation.

These people are seriously dim.
Cool. Now do separation support. Why do should my mayor advocate for a tiny, fringe minority, where separation wi hurt the Alberta economy and make Alberta’s poorer? #ableg

🇨🇦 Canadian fans booed the 🇺🇸American flag at the FIFA World Cup opening ceremony. At UFC 250, American fans stopped everything and sang the Canadian national anthem for Aiemann Zahabi. No prompting. No politics. Just respect. That’s the difference between a crowd following a politician’s grudge and a crowd that actually likes their neighbour. Trudeau taught Canadians to boo. Americans just taught us what class looks like.🇺🇸🇨🇦 🇨🇦🇺🇸👏 #WorldCup2026 #UFC250 #cdnpoli

In Canada, if you achieve success, it's common for others to dismiss you as lucky, or even criticize you for stepping on others. Canadian jealousy doesn’t celebrate winners, it resents them. It doesn’t ask “How did you do it?” , it whispers “He's just lucky” . Tall poppy syndrome isn’t a quirky national trait, it’s a parasite that keeps the whole garden short.
And yet we are the most economically productive province in Canada. And no, digging things out of the ground and selling it isn’t productive, in spite of what economists say. Thats the economic equivalent of selling water from a pond that happened to be in your property
