Bill 29, introduced today, is another attempt by Danielle Smith and the UCP to further privatize health care in Alberta and create a two-tier system, where some people can skip the line for diagnostic services while others are left waiting as the public system continues to struggle.
Yes, libraries are invaluable for their collections and services they offer, but also social contact without the expectation to interact with anyone or spend money is so important to so many people
“I don’t think Danielle Smith is going to stand up and voice support for Alberta separatism, but we’re not going to hear a full-throated rejection of it from her. And by not rejecting it, Smith is giving license to her voters to vote to separate.”

Mikisew Cree First Nation Billy-Joe Tuccaro spoke about the impact that toxic chemicals leaching and spilling from the oil sands is having on his people.
Every Canadian should listen to what he has to say.

Fascism is failing - democracy is winning
I was elected as a democratic socialist, and will continue to govern as a democratic socialist.
100 days in — and we’re just getting started.
Happy 77th birthday to NATO, created on this day in 1949. Despite what some would have you believe, it’s still a critically important alliance.
But why take my word for it when @hcrichardson.bsky.social can explain it so much better?
Giving “library inspectors” the right to look at your library card, your history, and what you’ve signed out is fascist behaviour.
That's what the UCP's Bill 28 is all about.
I will be going to the #WaterNotCoal Petition signing at Southbound Brewing tomorrow between 6:00 - 8:00 PM tomorrow. Please find a location near you and sign. The #UCP have no right to destroy our lands for their greed. #abpoli #ableg
Separatists have an understanding with the UCP.
If they lose in Court to First Nations, premier will quarterback separatists, override Court decision again, and give them a referendum.
Yet premier refuses a Legislature vote on #ForeverCanadian petition.

The Alberta government is now considering some level of book restrictions in public libraries, not just schools. And once again they are taking aim at LGBTQ2S+ books.
Don't forget where this focus came from.
It was never actually about "concerned parents."

Today, I sent a letter to the Alberta Legislature committee, urging them to get to work, refer the question ”Do you agree that Alberta should remain in Canada?” and vote on it NOW.
The economic and social damage to Alberta is unacceptable. Stop the delay.

"As of the date of this correspondence, the Chair has not yet scheduled the Committee's first meeting."
Forever Canada is respectfully asking the Legislature to...
(Checks notes)
Do their job.

Avi's father just passed, days after Avi won NDP leadership.
In his speech, Avi said his dad had told him, of his dreams of a better world, "not in my lifetime, maybe in yours."
Incredible Stephen Lewis lived just long enough to see Avi take that first step in refusing to say that to his own kid:
In Minnesota, we stand tall with our neighbors in the face of hatred.
Today is Trans Day of Visibility. Trans, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming people have always been here — from the hijra of India to the Diné nádleehi to the leaders who built the modern LGBTQIA+ movement here in New York. Your existence is not up for debate. Your lives are not a political issue. We're fighting for a city where every trans New Yorker can live openly, safely, and with joy.
Spain's socialist government is about to undertake its largest-ever migrant regularization program, granting legal status and work permits to roughly 500,000 undocumented workers. As Europe hardens its borders, Madrid is betting on inclusion over exclusion.
Over the last 120 years the gloriously beautiful #TurksandCaicos have explored joining Canada. 1917, 1970s, 1980s, 2004.
Hell ya! I mean, LOOK AT THIS PLACE!
And it would be a domestic flight! Our brothers and sisters in the islands get 1 maybe 2 MPs, & we get a tropical beach!

Ahem @markcarney.bsky.social
Have you seen this yet?
This is wrong.
Parliament is supposed to be a civic space — the one room in this country where every faith, and no faith, stands on equal ground.
A politician with the guts to say it:
"No American child from the blue collar or the middle class should have to die fighting in Iran. Let the Epstein class fight the Epstein War."
- Premier Wab Kinew at the NDP national convention, Winnipeg.
“With a furious, heart-breaking 43-34 vote, the provincial government decided to dismiss thousands of Albertans with disabilities, essentially telling desperate parents that their children just do not matter enough to warrant a simple legal framework.”

Government must deliver for working people—and every dollar in our budget should work as hard as they do.
That’s why I directed every agency to cut waste and help close our budget gap.
Here’s some of what we found.
We’ve been living with #MAGA-UCP separatist baiting, anti Canadian, self serving bullshit for too long. A year ago #Indigenous peoples reminded us it’s illegal. Here’s the reminder Smith is manipulating separatists to bolster her power. #ableg #abed #cndpoli #abpoli #yql #yhz #yyc #ymm #UCP
We deserve transparency.
We deserve competent, ethical leadership.
We deserve better than rock bottom.
Alberta's New Democrats are ready.
