Jared Wesley and Ken Boessenkool: Danielle Smith is not a conservative Her politics amount to libertarian-laced populism, directly opposed to the sort of principled, incrementalist politics Albertans have had before.

Business leaders are speaking out against the UCP's separatist drift.

Lawyers & judges are rising up against Premier Smith's threats to judicial independence.

Real conservatives are realizing what we've been saying for years.

Exactly what I thought when I saw this post.

I hope Albertans watch this and understand this was all the plan. There’s no pressure to release, unless it was created by Danielle Smith herself through her pitch in 2022, Bill 54 and Bill 14

I lost count how many times he said "Liberal" or "Mark Carney" Don't stop believin', indeed.

The Wild Claims of Jeff Rath, Separatist Firebrand | The Tyee The free-swinging Alberta Prosperity Project leader is caught on video spouting conspiracy theories and profanities.

If you're interested (or puzzled, confounded or outraged) by the separatism talk in Alberta, this is a good overview from @charlesrusnell.bsky.social of one of the people behind it. thetyee.ca/News/2026/01...

Embarrassing

I feel this is a must-watch speech for every Canadian.

Danielle Smith's separatism games are coming at a dangerous moment Alberta's premier loves to talk about standing up for her province. Will she ever show the same enthusiasm when it comes to Canada?

MUST READ ARTICLE!

”The too-cute-by-half game she’s been playing with the separatists who dominate her United Conservative Party has now gotten deadly serious — and threatens the future of both her province and country.”

'Unconscionable:' Blood Tribe vows legal action against Alberta independence petition The Blood tribe has joined other First Nations in vowing legal action against Alberta's decision to allow an independence petition.

Glad we met.

“This is reckless governance and contrary to the collective interests of all peoples in Alberta and Canada … these are unconscionable political acts that laid bare the Alberta Government’s true view of its obligations to First Nations and our peoples.”

@sarahdearing.bsky.social Hi Sarah! So happy to find you here. Hope you’re well 🩵

David, I’m sure, is smiling over this one. Thanks for recording and sharing it.

Woo hoo! Danielle Smith's overreaching policy and insatiable need to play to her base strikes again! I wonder if this is the first time Edmonton's been mentioned on 60 Minutes. <sigh>

Opinion: If the UCP can take away teachers' rights, no one is safe But Bill 2 does far more than end a strike. It turns fifty-thousand Albertan teachers into second-class citizens.

Every Albertan should be deeply concerned about what happened in the Leg a few days ago. edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

@altmadison.bsky.social re: 2hollis cope. Nay.

For my dog, it was a cheesestring (do they have those in the US?) in my parents’ backyard. She went back to the spot every time we visited.

We'll be back next Sunday at 10am.

In what city, Colleen?

The #ForeverCanadian initiative is truly grassroots. @lukaszukab.bsky.social & team are working fast and hard to get canvassers (like me!) accredited and post signing locations. Meanwhile, a resourceful canvasser built this to share signing events in Alberta www.forevercanadianpetitionevents.com

Brian Mason never minced his words. Trust me, I know. We sat across the aisle from each other in the House. I still have scars to show.

But when it comes to the #ForeverCanadian petition, he supports.

Brian, thanks for the letter!
