The Case for Sticking Around - Alberta Views Let’s not quit Canada. Let’s make it better for everyone—including Albertans

Why should Alberta stay in Canada? The reasons aren’t just economic or legal. I hope you will read and share my robust rebuttal to those trying to break up our country. And I hope you’ll respond. #cdnpoli #Alberta #ableg #abpoli #Canada #SenateofCanada

Especially for groceries up north

This move reminds me so much of harper closing the prison farms. So short sighted. Didn’t expect this and closing the experimental farms from a Liberal government.

I haven't yet heard of a data centre integrating sustainably into any area.

For decades, government has chipped away at the public service. Now you wait on hold for hours hoping to speak to someone who can help only to get disconnected.
Instead of fixing this problem, this government is making it worse.

Dress it up however you want—this isn’t transformation. It’s managed decline. And it’s squandering CanadaPost’s key competitive advantage that private couriers are using as a selling point. Shortsighted, wrongheaded and completely devoid of imagination.

I was just reading the Maine has banned construction of data centres. What do they know that we don’t or aren’t willing to see?

(1/) Grocery giants and other corporations have teamed up with big tech to raise profits through surveillance pricing. They're using personalized data to set individualized higher prices based on where you live, what you search online and how often you shop.

Not close prison libraries

Im sorry this took me a minute to respond to, the topic has been really emotionally and mentally exhausting for me.

Correctional Service Canada (CSC) has not hired MLIS/MLS Librarians in a very very long time.

This is what our government is promising us in Saskatchewan. It feels like more of a threat. #Sask #SkPoli #YQR

It's been almost 4 months since the tragic WR death at the GNH, and over a week since a stabbing in the RAH WR... and nothing is improving.

There has been a lot of talk, but no action.

How do I get compensated for a flight delay as ruled by CTA OTV?

Getting the legislation passed is Kevin Waugh’s big accomplishment as an MP.

How much money did we lose?

Same as the global transportation hub?

Physician intimidation comes in many ways... I have had colleagues warn me many times "Paul watch your back, powerful people are unhappy with your advocacy"...

I appreciate your willingness to put yourself forward as a candidate for leader. Your strong voice in the HOC is essential. Keep up the fight.

Carney is literally killing it.

A life-long banker meets an outdated postal service with infrastructure spanning the world's second largest nation- and *instead of introducing profit through postal banking* among other modernizations, it's flushed.

A 98.9% cut isn't reform. It's murder.

Reminds me of this
