The UCP designed this referendum to divide Alberta. Let's choose something better. Vote NO to the 9. And vote to Remain in Canada. Let's build a vision together.

"As I've been meeting with many community leaders across the province, it's clear that this whole referendum is about one side of the equation. It's not about building Alberta, it’s not about the economy, it's definitely not about the future of our eastern slopes and Rocky Mountains, and it's definitely not about bringing Albertans together. It's about distraction and division. It's about taking the easiest, laziest and most boring narrative in politics (“Everything is someone else's fault!”) and turning it into an agenda to do nothing productive. Frankly, it's pathetic. Because that’s the thing, we're are all legitimately worried about healthcare, affordability, jobs, and the future of our communities. Let's send a clear message on October 19th. Enough is enough. Vote NO. Vote Remain. Let's build a different vision." Bradley Lafortune Executive Director, Public Interest Alberta

@canadianinalberta.bsky.social "AB has been subjected to some wild propaganda over the last 50 yrs It's so powerful that even when losing healthcare, infrastructure crumbling & being torn from Canada, some would rather believe the lie that Ottawa is to blame for everything than look at the UCP Wild"

"just like the referendum questions on immigration, the UCP anti-Indigenous rhetoric is calculated to divide through rage baiting Don't bite Call it out Stay focused on what they don't want the public to notice Check-in on your neighbours who are being targeted" #NationalIndigenousPeoplesMonth 2/2

But if the xrays were not so yucky (again, my term) but they were in a lot of pain, she would schedule them for replacement surgery Soooo what if non-trauma joint replacements were truly not necessary? Off I go to find the ways to improve my joint function while being aware of my chronic pain 6/6

S Gawreluck... "Can I be the first to point out that people who release results of a vote they didn’t have, claiming results they want to see, by definition shouldn’t be in charge of any vote about anything. Especially one as important as separation" Why does anyone support this UCP govt?

With daily mindful movement, chronic pain awareness, much tenacity... Yesterday I blew the dust off, picked up the shuttle and was tentatively back at my loom. <3 #JoyAndGratitude

"That’s not the people’s will being enforced that’s her playing Albertans for fools" She is telling us she thinks all Albertans are stupid. "When people tell you who they are BELIEVE THEM!!"

Arlene Dickinson
So let's get this straight. Smith is saying the referendum will happen
regardless of an investigation into the data breach (created by the man
who got her elected!) that she says she knew nothing about even
though her staff did. And, as Premier, she can do this if she wants even
if the names that forced the referendum in the first place aren't legit??
That's not the people's will being enforced that's her playing Albertans
for fools - which they aren't.

Albertans "29% of Albertans now rank as "highly disinformed"— nearly DOUBLE the national average" This is sad, very sad. :(

"Smith needs to tell the separatists that if they want to force a secession vote on the province, they need to start a party, stand up their own candidates, and win in a general election -- exactly as the PQ did. The data breach scandal gives her all the cover she needs." 2/2

Yesterday was a lovely spring day. Went for a walk along my favourite trails. Had to dodge the soft splats of spring snow falling from the spruces along the way. Deeeelightful <3 <3
