Transgender people in sports is almost as big of an issue as voter fraud. Both are invented issues designed to scare the gullible idiots.
For those who don’t follow sports and haven’t really had the opportunity to get to know Canada men’s national football team head coach Jesse Marsch, he is probably one of the few Americans who addressed the insulting “51st state” rhetoric head-on since day one. ❤️🍁🇨🇦TEAM CANADA FOREVER🇨🇦🍁❤️ 1/3 🧵

This week, Alberta released new migration numbers. And far from being overwhelmed by immigrants - we are actually losing international newcomers. In Q1 2026, there were -648 net migrants to Alberta of international origins, a drop of -105.8% from Q1 2025. Check out these graphs. #ableg #abpoli

From @jaredwesley.ca "If anyone is wondering how Premier Smith's remarks and Bruce McAllister tirade are affecting UCP supporters, it's not a pretty sight in their social media circles. They have opened up a can of anti-Indigenous sentiment that is flowing freely on X and Facebook." 1/2
Remember: just like the referendum questions on immigration, the UCP's anti-Indigenous rhetoric is calculated to divide and distract through rage baiting. Don't bite. Call it out, but stay focused on what they don't want the public to notice. And check-in on your neighbours who are being targeted.

It is mind blowing that the Minister of Finance has no idea how much this fall's 10 referendums will cost, and that his best guess is "the same amount as a general election." Just as scary as the government having no prepared analysis for what separation would cost before calling a vote on it.
