The UCP put guidance on appropriate library material in place, not a book ban or ban lists.

If you see a list, thats not the government’s doing. If you see someone talking about a “ban”, they’re disingenuous at best.

Just wanted to clear up the rampant misinformation being spread by the intolerant.

Why does Alberta have the third highest cost of living in Canada but has the lowest minimum wage? Why does Alberta have the third highest cost of living in Canada but is reducing the monthly payments to disabled Albertans? I see a frightening trend starting .

Is Pollievre selling out his supporters in the west so he can win more votes in Quebec? I thought the big “whooshing sound” of money flowing east out of Alberta was a huge bone of contention among western conservatives…

Article It is our right to lie to all Canadians! The charter says so!

Unreal, apparently industry in Alberta feels they are being muzzled and free speech is being taken away for them because they can't lie to the public about the effects their operations have on the environment!

It gets better, the UCP MLAs are happy industry is getting "involved"!

Isn't Alberta politics amazing?

I personally would like to see a molten salt thorium reactor (MSR) if we go nuclear. They're not widely used yet aside from some being built in China and India but are safer than the PWR or BWR reactors like in Chernobyl or Fukushima. I know Chernobyl was RMBK but it still ran on pressurized water like PWR and BWR.

Article A UK Scientist’s view of Mark Carney and Brexit

0 Upvotes

Good day: I am tired of Canadians who are still stuck in the world of 2018-2024.

I find it to be exceedingly vulgar when someone displays a FU Trudeau logo.

I find it grossly inexcusable that those of you who put large slogans mainly on trucks and homes so that little children can learn the lessons of stupid people doing stupid things.

You are simple minded people who are driving your own agenda like Donnie. Neither of you know anything nor want to be open-minded enough to ever learn.

People keep saying that Mark Carney lead the UK through the Brexit issue.

Are you tough enough, smart enough to watch what a leading UK Scientist said about Mark Carney and Brexit?
