BREAKING: Rick Bell petitions govt of Alberta to amend sections 555 and 556 of the MGA, warns province to stop colonizing the free towns and cities of Alberta.

I mean, shouldn’t the Alberta Premier's Chief of Staff be banking at ATB, regardless? Why does Rob hate Alberta??
What the hell is this about @RBC …explanation now please. Is Ms. Chipiuk a criminal or just a conservative with opinions you disagree with politically? I’d like to know so I can decide whether my business with your bank is still warranted.
If the current form of the Senate is more an "echo chamber" than previous formats, then @SenatorHousakos might as well be Turkish. cbc.ca/news/politics/…
A WILD JEFF CALLAWAY APPEARS! USES CONFUSED LOOK. SUPER EFFECTIVE!
Frigging ridiculous.... Hope someone has some guts to put an end to this nonsense of priorities at City Hall...
When picking up a book is too damn hard so you ask Grok why the sky is blue, how doorhandles can operate without magic, and where Trump's self-aware hair piece hides at night.
Grok, the Sphinx, and the enclosure were covered in sand for approximately 3000 years. How could Nile flooding cause those heavy water erosion patterns on the enclosure? If it was covered for approximately 3000 years.
He also came out with no baskets of kittens planned, nor pony give-aways, nor luxury choo choo lines to take billionaires to Calgary for prime rib Tuesdays.
So Carney comes out of the Premiers’ meeting with no projects planned; no pipelines; no new mines; no new LNG plants. Nothing. More talk. No action. As Canadians get poorer.
People who don't take 10 minutes to read up on why different parts of our govt are the way they are should probably go sit in the corner and play with their orphaned wells and leave gov't to people who are literate.
WTF?
What do you call it when a Premier who rags on the hated eastern Laurentian elites, the nemesis of Alberta, props up and congratulates a man.... .....WHO WAS LITERALLY THE CHANCELLOR OF LAURENTIAN UNIVERSITY FOR EIGHT YEARS?
Good journalism is fair, accurate and balanced. It’s time for the mainstream media to return to that to better serve the public.
Is @_TimCartmell aware of what office he's running for and what duties/powers/limitations it has? Because it sounds like he wants to be Prime Minister....or at least a back bencher CPC MP.
A man with a violent history. Multiple past attacks. Banned from transit property. And still, he was out on bail, free to harm someone again. He stabbed a complete stranger at an Edmonton LRT station. He’ll likely serve just four and a half years.
The comments here are something else. A bunch of flag-in-profile blue checks calling a post highlighting a citizen right that is a cornerstone of democracy undemocratic and rigged. Go figure

In case you missed it, the Alberta Next open house in Red Deer had some zingers. From the pages of the @RedDeerAdvocate comes this zinger of big "I'm not racist, BUT...." vibes:

I can only imagine how ragey Hugh would get if he had to deal with this in Alberta ;)
Just a reminder- ARCHAEOLOGY= the study of our human past through material culture. PALAEONTOLOGY= the study of prehistoric life through things like fossils.
Nice would also no doubt like us all to willingly sign up for indentured servitude to the billionaire of our...no, their choice.
There is absolutely no rational reason for a 65 year old who owns their home to still be paying property taxes. It's absurd.
LATEST. BREAKING NEWS. If you're going to slander a nation with ridiculously lazy lies, you earned some belittling. And people calling me a socialist, ho boy 🤣🤣🤣. Never gets old.
I have lived in #Canada for 40 years, it is ‘darling’ to think you are trying to belittle me w/ your Socialist, elbows up programming. Good Day to you.
This image of a Mighty Instrument of The State that these people have built the CBC into is more farcical than 22 Minutes. Might as well say the Edmonton Symphony is the head of the Illuminati.
No, I don’t make things up but I certainly can be wrong. You live in a Country that borders on Socialism so it wouldn’t be that unusual to think #Canada would ban a broadcast from the States which may counter the State run media there.
Why do people expect those they lie about to say nothing and then also get all puffed up and bent out of shape when they're called out for their lies? The only people banning things in Canada are certain far-right, Trump-obsessed premiers.
Fox News showed up as blocked on my wife’s feed in Canada. Do you customarily insult total strangers?
Ah, yes. The proud national culture of England with its deep roots to Arthur, Agricola, and...... *checks notes* Some stones that didn’t show up until 1816 after some rich dude talked the British Museum into buying them.
Britain should keep the Elgin Marbles. Those trying to undermine our national culture should be taken on, not appeased. news.sky.com/story/british-…
The bigges loser here is Hawass. Ge never should have agreed to be on this panel. But his ego no doubt got in the way. This doesn't help archaeology in the least. It's pandering that legitimized the lunatic rantings of Corsetti and his ilk.
"Have you gone in and explored that hidden chamber?" Jimmy Corsetti questions Dr Zahi Hawass why it's taking so long to truly explore the origins of the Pyramids. 📺 youtu.be/c3EBcvP88ys @piersmorgan | @BrightInsight6 | @DeDunkingPast
