Reposting this letter from Smith to PM Trudeau asking for more immigrants
She can't request more immigrants and then say immigrants are the problem
I wish someone in Canadian media would ask her about this

👀 CATO INSTITUTE: “Biden didn’t cause the border crisis… Many believe Biden caused this increase in migration by reducing border enforcement. However, data challenges this narrative — the crisis began before Biden took office and ended before he left.” www.cato.org/blog/biden-d...

This is among the most democratically dangerous things Danielle Smith has said.

She wants to remove all checks and balances on her power and projects herself as the embodiment of "the people."

We have left the realm of liberal democracy in this province.

The method to Mark Carney’s madness The memorandum of understanding with Alberta might look like surrender. Look closer

Mark Carney managed to trade a pipeline that will never get built for meaningful progress on industrial carbon pricing and electricity interties — both of which will get more wind and solar built.

Screenshot from the announcement, at the url included in the post. It reads "November 19, 2025—Auditor General Doug Wylie’s An Examination of Community Laboratory Services (Contract with DynaLIFE) found issues across governance and oversight, financial management, and procurement, which contributed to the following: 

non-value-add expenditure of taxpayer dollars ($125 million between 2013-2023) 
disrupted services 
adverse impacts on patients and staff 
“Based on sworn testimony and an examination of documents and communications, our work identifies notable breakdowns in due diligence, risk assessment, and financial analysis,” said Auditor General Doug Wylie. “Decisions about how public funds are spent on health care can have far-reaching consequences. When procurement processes are guided by evidence and strong governance, they protect taxpayer dollars and ensure services meet the needs of Albertans.” "

Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

But not impossible.

Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

Smith is utilizing school boards to send out this letter to parents…

But missing from it in all of the spin is the fact that she REVOKED teachers charter rights.

Almost as if she knows that what she did was an overreach and parents would be appalled.

Anyone in Canada who thinks using the the notwithstanding clause doesn’t affect them doesn’t understand where labour rights come from and why I talked to my son about 1919

Tomorrow, from 9 AM to noon, St. Albert students are organizing a walk-out and a march in support of Teachers.

As a dad, former Teacher and education minister, I support this. Missing school is warranted in support of social justice and civil right.

I’ll join them.

Anytime anyone claims that Smith used the Notwithstanding clause in a way that Peter Lougheed would have approved of…

Feel free to share this from his 1998 paper that makes it clear that absolutely isn’t the case.
