Every time this government is in trouble, they go to the bike lanes. What are they trying to distract us from now?

Jason Kenney got kicked out of St. Michael’s University School in Victoria (tuition for day students = $35,220; boarding = $85,300) and then went to Athol Murray College of Notre Dame (day tuition = $13,000; boarding = $32,000) for free because his dad was the president.
“Eat the damn rich.” Like Upper Canada College grad Avi Lewis? (Current tuition for day students = $48,720; boarding = $89,570) Or proud Maserati owner and Detroit Country Day School grad Jagmeet Singh? (Current tuition $42,310 USD / $58,800 CAD)

Most CAs are also only pushing out biased info on how rezoning is bad.
We hear some pretty big stats in the news about rezoning, but when the data is analyzed, it represents less than 1% or ward residents. Varsity had highest submissions in the city, and still only was 0.5 percent of the 12000 residents. It’s significant but not a majority.

You are one of the dumbest people on earth, my district is literally a majority white district. Your conspiracy theories are laughable and should have no place in a society that cares about facts.
This has been happening for years. Ilhan Omar is the most obvious example. A large number of relatively recently arrived Somalis will elect only a Somali to Congress in that Minnesota district. This is much more subtle, but just as bad, in many other parts of America.

My view of return of measles to Americas, low immunization rates in Southern Great Plains of West Texas, neighboring OK KS NM KS CO becoming confluent with vaccine refusal in Alberta, Canada. Entrenched libertarian ideologies connecting to the corrupt wellness influencer industry

How do you like Danielle Smith’s new $250,000 red carpet? Yes, you read it correctly, her new office rug cost Alberta taxpayers $250,000. Now, let’s talk about fiscal conservatism and entitlement. #ableg

Ho-ly… In a video posted to YouTube, former Alberta CMOH Dr Mark Joffe did an hour long Grand Round presentation followed by a Q&A. It is a masterclass in what measles is and what Alberta should be doing. Thread! #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abmed /1

We've obtained multiple documents to show the many many ways that UCP government has intervened in major health procurement decisions, even if Danielle Smith says it's all an AHS internal issue: cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/a…

The AMA needs to do this work because the Alberta Government no longer allows the @CMOH_Alberta report to the public.
As of today 14 measles cases have been reported in the province. Alberta Children's Hospital is preparing for more and asking Albertans to ensure they and their children are fully vaccinated. Measles is a highly contagious, vaccine-preventable illness. cbc.ca/news/canada/calgary/i…

Massive drop in the Alberta health care scandal from the Globe- Alberta government was told by experts importing the medicine was risky and could cause significant financial loss. They did it anyways.

Statement from Infectious Diseases Society of America: The CDC study to explore vaccines & autism will: - waste needed resources at worst possible time - "drive misinformation" Reality: Decades of "scientifically sound studies show no link or association between vaccines & autism."

More fentanyl was dispensed by Trump’s White House doctor per the pharmacy logs from his first term than what is crossing the border from Canada.

NO increase in sudden cardiac arrest in young athletes during the pandemic Remember the "died suddenly" anti vax scaremongers who claimed this was a) happening and b) because of the vaccine? Turns out they were lying. Who could have guessed jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

Another massive drop this Wednesday in the ongoing Alberta health care scandal. In a letter to the gov, it looks like the fired AHS CEO told the government that the private CFS may be siphoning staff from the public hospitals, increasing "acute care service disruptions."

Premier Danielle Smith commented on the AHS stats The Globe reported in our Friday story, implying the numbers are skewed. To clarify: The rates for chartered surgical facilities exclude costs for items like devices and imaging **because those are paid for by AHS.**

Massive Friday drop in the Alberta Health Scandal. Mraiche bought a property last spring and then sold it for a 300k profit after three months to the PROVINCE-Alberta Infrastructure. The kicker-Peter Guthrie, who also took hockey tickets, is the Minister of Infrastructure

I’ve watched you from afar and never said anything for two main reasons. 1 being the respect I have for your brothers and parents & 2 I’ve always wanted to keep the in fighting between folks of color to a minimum. This was something I couldn’t let go - I’ve known you since I was ten years old and played with you so I’d say I know you better than most at a deeper level. You were a hell of a player and instead of using your platform you did everything in your power to gain acceptance and popularity, nothing with you has ever been genuine but transactional and usually for publicity reasons. Even during this most sensitive time both politically and socially you take the side of the oppressor because that’s who you make your money from. I would of thought the “love” you have always claimed for your country, a country you represented at the highest levels would shine through to push back on rhetoric of annexation and humiliation of the very land you are born and raised in, but even that doesn’t get you to do the right morally. This is the reason why every place you have played - no one liked you and players on the inside have always known who you really are - a sell out of the highest proportions. You are the perfect example of why people of color haven’t progressed at the highest levels of society. From one man to another, you’re a disgrace and history will judge you accordingly.
The Trizzy Train 🚂 💨💨 could be coming through soon👀 Stay tuned!
