The foreign interference is here, and has already attracted truckloads of eyeballs. Will the UCP do anything about it?

3 UCP legislature committee members forced a vote through to deny me, the proponent of #ForeverAlberta petition, Alberta’s largest ever petition, to appear before the committee and speak on behalf of the nearly 500,000 Albertans.

This is another move to assist the separatists.

#ForeverCanadian volunteers and proud Canadians in Alberta:

This morning in a committee, the Premier and UCP demonstrated that they will do everything to help the separatists.

We will win anyhow!

Please sign up on Forever-Canadian.ca and let’s crush them in a referendum!

Alberta NDP are accusing the UCP of stalling progress on the successful Forever Canada petition so that its work won't be finished until after a potential seperatist referendum.

They add motions to finish work by May 7th and to hear from proponent Thomas Lukaszuk were shot down.

“Samson said she didn't see the break coming, but that she had no doubts that "something or someone" had pressured the UCP-appointed members to come up with a minority report.”

Another original commissioner member has stepped forward.

UCP government’s electoral map move undemocratic: commission member - Red Deer Advocate Electoral Boundaries Commission majority report rejected by government

“The UCP government’s plan to dismiss an independent electoral boundary commission riding map recommendations and undertake a redo is a “stab in the heart for democracy,” said one commission member.”

Duane Bratt: Gerrymandering electoral map will erode Alberta democracy Thursday was a bad day for democracy, and possibly setting up an even worse day for democracy.

“It is not an exaggeration to say that the minority report was gerrymandered to benefit the UCP by significantly diluting urban voters.”

Opinion: Possible changes to Alberta’s electoral map put democracy at risk If the UCP fiddles with the map, it could guarantee a conservative supermajority for a generation

“A government that has no electoral accountability can hardly be called a democracy.”

Moving the Goalposts: Danielle Smith’s Referendum Narrative Starts to Collapse Under Its Own… There’s a point in politics where delay stops looking like diligence and starts looking like design. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith may…

Nailed it!
“When a Premier claims that delays are caused by a proponent’s inconsistency — and that proponent can demonstrably show otherwise — it doesn’t just undermine the specific argument. It erodes trust in the entire process.”

I spent today at the hospital and didn’t see a single respirator (other than my own).

There were a few people wearing surgical masks.

Signs saying it was a “mask friendly” environment.

No free masks.

No mask mandates.

Tons of coughing & sickness.

Masks belong in healthcare. Period.

I am looking forward to attending tomorrow morning (8:30 AM) the first meeting of the Alberta Legislature committee appointed to deal with the #ForeverCanadian petition.

This committee was appointed last December. It meets tomorrow for the first time for 1 hour.

That’s still my life now because I cannot afford another Covid infection.
Before I got long covid I was already avoiding anything unmasked or travel but I could still workout at home and hike and now I can’t even do that. People do not understand what they have to lose.

Leong: Alberta government should butt out of electoral boundaries redraw By discarding an independent commission's electoral map, it's impossible to not question the province's sincerity.

"... By inserting itself in a process in which it should have no part, one can’t help but wonder what ulterior motives lurk behind this subversion of the democratic process."

Danielle Smith claims that her new UCP majority boundaries commission will follow the recommendations of one person on the old commission…

But that begs a simple question…

Why did they give themselves the power to do whatever they want?

Pancreatic cancer mRNA vaccine shows lasting results in an early trial Scientists caution that more research is needed, but nearly all of the patients who responded to the personalized vaccine are still alive six years later.

There’s no routine screening for pancreatic cancer, most cases aren’t operable, and the five year survival rate after diagnosis is around 13%. It’s a traumatic news.

But new personalized mRNA immunotherapy is showing encouraging results in Phase 1 clinical trials.

Keep funding science!

Another voice raising concerns over Alberta's plan to redraw the electoral map, with the Canadian Civil Liberties Association saying the UCP's plan "casts a doubt over the equity and fairness of Alberta’s electoral process."

A must watch
Well worth your time 🇨🇦

Am so pissed off. Was talking about this 30+ years ago.

No one listened.

I was talking about human trafficking, too.

Again, no one listened.

And here we are in 2026, eh? Spiralling into economically unstable, human trafficking dystopia at an accelerating pace.

Small minds, man. Small minds.

COVID hasn't gone away. Avoid crowds . Wear a mask and get vaccinated
