Here for humour, some politics, and friends. Happily married. Not interested in anything more. NO DMs! NOT INTERESTED IN ANYTHING MORE! That’s an automatic block! Enjoying the retired life in southern Alberta. She/her
JeffTrnka@jefftrnka.bsky.social · 2w agoFrom keeping booze boycotts to withholding energy, premiers talk how to hit back at Trump. Alberta and Saskatchewan reject idea of using energy as leverage. Of course Smith and Moe reject using energy as leverage. They're both Trump bootlickers after all. www.cbc.ca/news/politic...
As seen on Facebook. They’re admitting that 50 years of Conservative governance hasn’t worked! It seems that comprehension skills are quite low with this group. They’re their own worst enemy.
Mr. Kinew is doing such a great job in Manitoba and he’s making it look easy. I think he needs more of a challenge so let’s bring him to Alberta and he can be premier of TWO provinces! All in favour raise your hand! (Yes, I know this can’t happen.)

Good Morning. Parker is still missing. His parents must be absolutely beside themselves. If you are anywhere in #yyc today, take a look around. If you plan to stay home, maybe take a walk around the neighbourhood or to the store. He is somewhere, and he needs to be found.

We have our sign! Hoping the seppies leave it alone. It’s a brave little sign, deep in right wing territory. Our neighbors have stopped talking to us because we don’t support separatists. 🤷♀️
He really doesn’t like the sound of rain or sky booms. At least he’s stopped shaking. Now my legs are tingly.
My radishes look like actual radishes this time! There’s still more out there and I’m so happy!
I’m having trouble understanding this. The threshold for Dani Bucks is 220,000 per year. Every person under that and over 18 gets the pittance. It’s kind of like rewarding the traditional 2 parent household and punishing the single parents. There’s a lot wrong with this whole scheme.
The sky is dark and rumbling. County of Newell in Alberta under a severe thunderstorm watch. Hoping we don’t get damaging hail again.
This is some bullshit. NOW they’re all speaking out? Screw that. The UCP needs to go because they are making you and me pay for their stupid infighting. How much will this stupid referendum cost? Too much.

Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew pictured yesterday explaining the difference between 'reality' and 'pandering' to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith, while unidentified man in centre considers his lunch order.
Danielle Smith is angling to be Canada's Nigel Farage. I break down years of her absurd fantasies about an independent Alberta, and the role she played in whipping up separatist fever. www.thestar.com/opinion/star...
Justin Ling: Danielle Smith is brewing Canada’s own Brexit problem
Alberta premier is flirting with Brexit-like falsehoods.

A referendum on whether or not to hold a referendum should be known as a referenDUH because it’s really the stupidest thing ever. EVER!
Well internet, we have a winner! The perfect referendum question.

"Alberta separatist movement largely based on lies, conspiracy theories, intolerance, and myths of a magical past..." and don't forget... foreign, largely RW US, interference
Timothy Caulfield@caulfieldtim.bsky.social · 3mo agoAs MAGA Alberta Premier pushes an independence vote, important to remember: Alberta separatist movement largely based on lies, conspiracy theories, intolerance, and myths of a magical past... My take: thewalrus.ca/albertas-sep... cc @jaredwesley.ca @ryanjespersen.bsky.social
First off, Danielle Smith should be investigated for foreign interference. I would be happy to see her charged with treason. Who is she working for? The courts and the majority of Albertans have told her to go pound sand, but she is coyly sidestepping rulings to service someone.She's un-Canadian.
It’s not the remainers who are causing the division. It’s this guy. He’s breaking his own movement apart. He’s a bully.
Smith took a simple yes or no question & managed to make it both multiple choice & linguistically redundant. The 40 year strategy of blaming the Feds for every grievance under the sun has finally come to roost & Smith’s shown up with the bravado of a rooster & focus of a chicken. #ableg
I don’t want to have referendums. I don’t want to answer stupid questions at the the polls. We shouldn’t have to. This. Should. Not. Be. A. Thing. I’m tired of the stupid. It’s a waste. It’s frustrating and I’m sick of the shit. Let’s just get this fuckery over with. Alberta isn’t going anywhere.
Danielle Smith is tearing this province apart to save her own political skin. Instead of standing up for Alberta and a stronger Canada, she’s appeasing separatists and giving legitimacy to groups tied to illegal data breaches, foreign interference concerns and attacks on Indigenous treaty rights.
For as long as I can remember there has always been some sort of separatist movement in this province. NEVER, under any premier before Smith, have they been treated as anything more than a fringe group who refuse to understand how anything works. Smith will sell us all just to hear “GOOD GIRL!”
