Edmonton is short hundreds of hospital beds (AHS documents), public schools are full or overflowing (38 of them) & (far less importantly) my weekly hockey is 10:15pm on a Sunday bc there’s not enough rinks (even though the organizers have held the spot in line for decades.) 🙄

"Staffing issues have forced the Covenant facilities in Edmonton, the Grey Nuns Community Hospital and Misericordia Community Hospital, to cap the number of patients that are admitted..." "they are redirected to AHS facilities..." #ableg #abpoli edmonton.ctvnews.ca/covenant-healt…

So who wasn't telling the truth? We have the premier saying that's the plan and it's already underway, we have the health minister saying they're coming up with a plan, and the finance minister has no clue whatsoever. How did Brian Jean describe this? #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Great question! The Premier turned down my interview request. Her office has not acknowledged my many requests for comment, clarification, information. I have pressed her during press conferences but there are still lots of unanswered questions.

Wasps are everywhere this summer. Extreme heat and dry conditions are to blame. “We are seeing 3 generations in 3 weeks’ time. Usually it’s 1. They’re completing their whole life cycle from egg to adult in 7 to 10 days now.” Via ⁦Alanna Smith⁩ theglobeandmail.com/canada/alberta…

No, you clearly didn't read the story. Macleod's job is to cover what politicians are saying on both sides. It's *extremely* common for journos to ask politicians about things other politicians have said about them. This was an unfounded attack against a journalist & the people.

“Tenet Media’s Canadian-themed videos touch on a wide range of hot button issues, including immigration, crime, ‘anti-white’ sentiment, anti-LGBTQ+ paranoia, residential school unmarked graves, as well as inflation and the housing crisis.”

Alberta Premier Danielle Smith will be interviewed by Ezra Levant during the Rebel News Live convention in Calgary on Oct. 5. Tamara Lich and Tom Flanagan will also be speaking at the event.

This is a long shot but is anyone in Edmonton interested in fostering/taking a very sweet boy cat who lives in our neighbourhood? DMs are open if you’d like details. He rocks fwiw.

"The new contracts would provide secure funding to owners of the plants to keep them operational. It’s not clear at this time whether that money would come from the government, or from a levy imposed on industry." #ableg #abpoli #cdnpoli

Just think about this for a second. The Alberta government is considering spending taxpayer dollars to keep private & obsolete power plants running, but they're not willing to spend $$$ on #YYC's Green Line or on preserving the Royal AB Museum in #YEG. Really? #ableg #abpoli

“Crushing workloads, we are drowning in patients right now and have no ability to look after everyone who comes to us in need” “We do not have the resources that the Albertan population requires for us to look after them.” #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli edmonton.ctvnews.ca/drowning-in-pa…

Rebel Ridge deserves a theatre release. That was a no holds-barred ass-kicker of a movie.
