Rakhi Pancholi came out swinging on the Wyant Report and highlighted all of its flaws and shortcomings… It’s worth remembering she’s a lawyer as she takes Danielle Smith’s spin apart. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

New! Danielle Smith's former Chief of Staff personally oversaw the hiring of two family members of embattled healthcare MHCare CEO Sam Mraiche to government policy advisor roles while multiple contract scandals were unfolding. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli open.substack.com/pub/thebre…

New poll! And Danielle Smith is plummeting even before the chemtrails debacle. Only 31% of Albertans have a positive opinion of Danielle Smith. /1 #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Damn solar panels.
BREAKING: A wildfire has ignited due to a pipeline that caught on fire between Hinton and Edson. Emergency crews, including air tankers and heavy equipment, have been mobilized to contain the blaze. The affected area is home to numerous gas plants and wells, with the pipeline managed by TC Energy. This pipeline network facilitates the transportation of natural gas from Alberta and northeastern British Columbia to various domestic and international markets. Spanning 24,631 kilometers, the system interconnects with TC Energy’s Canadian Mainline and Foothills systems, as well as other pipelines operated by third parties.

This circus is happening in Edmonton, where we have just learned that hospitals do not have the resources to properly feed and care for pre-term infants in NICU. #shame #UCP #ableg
Can't wait to host over 1300 people tonight at our second annual Edmonton Leader's Dinner with @abdaniellesmith! Grateful for the outpouring of support. Looking forward to seeing everyone!

"Funding for private schools and early childhood centres will increase at four times the rate of public K-12 spending." #abed #ableg #abpoli

New data from Stats Can shows Alberta continues to spend the least on public education of any province in Canada. For public education, this is nothing new. It’s been our reality for years. Alberta students deserve better. I wonder what the excuse is this time?

At this point I’m trying to figure out why anyone would come to Alberta to practice family medicine. Remember, these physicians provide emergency services, anesthesia coverage and obstetrical support. When you can’t recruit them you lose these essentials too.

The ACFP stands for family physicians. We believe that a stable well-resourced primary health care system is the foundation of a healthy Alberta. Getting there requires collaboration not substitution. #HeartOfFamilyMedicine #FamilyDocsRock #WeSpecializeInYou

Precisely!! Where did the taxpayer money go? And who profited off of further degrading our already struggling #healthcare system? Would be a wonderful FOIP request by some good journalists as I'm doubtful these details will be made public otherwise. #abpoli #abhealth #ableg
Wow. I’d love to know how much this misadventure has cost the taxpayer. What were the contract break fees on the super lab? How much was Dynalife being paid under the sole-source (was it?) contract? What are the new break fees? Who are DynaLyfe’s lobbyists and their payment?

Not even one year after the AB government privatized our community labs, they're un-privatizing them! “This was totally predictable & a totally irresponsible move by the UCP government,” said FOM's ED, Chris Gallaway. Read more from FOM: friendsofmedicare.org/govern… #ABhealth #ABleg

The inevitable story arc of private systems in public healthcare. Medicine is inherently unprofitable when practiced ethically. The public system will now need to fix this at significant expense.
NEW: Alberta government announces that Dynalife labs and staff will be transferred to AHS-owned Alberta Precision Labs by year's end. #yeg #yyc #ableg
