UCP MLA Jason "allegedly a separatist" Stephan called the duty to consult... - not actually in the treaties - a judge invented duty - weaponized and abused by activist judges So we're back to demonizing the judiciary again. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

This is quite the tantrum! Smith said in Red Deer that if the courts affirm the Duty to Consult requirement in the separatist question currently in legal limbo... She would potentially repeal the Citizen Initiated Referendum Act. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

In Red Deer... Danielle Smith had a hard time convincing members that the Duty to Consult is real. But she did commit to holding a binding referendum on separatism in May or April of 2027 if the separatist question gets support. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

From the DM’s… And some folks say the separatists don’t have a racist problem. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Tonight at 7! While our patrons already have access to the full show, we're dropping Part 1 of last weekends live show tonight at 7 with a new part every night this week! Part 1 is the intro to the show & a conversation with Political Scientist @jaredwesley.ca! #abpoli #cdnpoli

“Alberta should stop claiming this policy mirrors Germany, Switzerland, Japan, or South Korea. It does not. Alberta is not following an established international model. It is conducting a policy experiment with well-documented harms and unproven benefits.” edmontonjournal.com/opinion/colu...

Opinion: Alberta's preventive health testing isn't like Japan or Europe: It's a risky experiment

Alberta is introducing a fundamentally different approach from the systems it invokes.
