I live in Victoria, British Columbia, where Justin Trudeau is also the Prime Minister. We have provincial rent control. My monthly rent has increased a grand total of $30 in three years. So just maybe it isn't a "Trudeau Thing"...

In 2014, Harper, federal income tax on $100k = 26%. In 2023, Trudeau, federal income tax on $100k = 22.5%. In 2023 basic deduction was $15k, so net income BEFORE ANY OTHER DEDUCTIONS was $85k, taxed at 22.5% = $17,425 in federal tax, IOW an effective tax rate of 17.425% (not 40%)

My “Conservative” MP Garnett Genuis spent $73,686.50 on travel in one year….he’d like you to know he has a problem with “school lunch programs” and “elites”. “The powerful should serve the common good, rooted in normal people’s experience.” If you’re going to talk the talk

The Alberta government spends THE LEAST on public education per student in Canada. Show our students and teachers you support them. Read our full statement: bit.ly/4g3AuFg #abed #ableg #StopTheExcuses #TheLeast #PublicEducation

The UCP is addressing this issue. Our top priorities for education are laser-focused on children's pronouns, restricting cell phones, and parental consent for sexual education. We are also taking millions of taxpayer dollars from public school funding and giving it to private

The UCP have decided that parents will have to opt-in for sex education rather than the usual practice of opting out. This will be a disaster for so many reasons. Mark my words. Another example of the UCP having fully misplaced priorities, while Alberta students pay the price.

Alberta has the lowest per-capita education funding in the entire country. I recently received a stack of postcards from Calgary Catholic Teachers ATA Local 55 teachers that highlights the struggles our teachers face from this chronic underfunding. United Conservative Party of Alberta needs to properly fund our schools now.

Hey colleagues. It’s Fri which means #Red4Ed but find time on the weekend to do laundry because we are wearing red on Monday & Tues in solidarity and to support our ⁦Alberta Teachers' Association⁩ negotiating team who will be at the bargaining table with the government. Together we win!

Charter schools are insane. They claim to be public but many have exclusive access by a very select few only. So you’re paying for someone else’s kid to go to a school with much better resources than your kid is getting but your kid wouldn’t be allowed to go there

There's something wrong when Danielle Smith can find $161 million for 3 charter schools but refuses to adequately fund AB public schools.
