Don’t fucking let “us” touch the courts, Canada.
O&G trying to bias the courts in their favour. 🙄
This is probably more about separatism, and Alberta potentially being forced to respect Charter/human rights they don’t like. The O&G crowd is just fine with things as they are.
AB separatists are nothing without support from the O&G crowd, so you know there’s overlap.
We are so fucked if we don’t dethrone this bitch next election
The polls are looking better and better, fortunately.
It’s improving but NDP is still polling 5 points behind in Calgary, which is concerning
Where are you getting that number? The 5% lead shown here is for the whole province, including rural areas. Although I guess Edmonton is in there too.

The critical battleground of Calgary shows a competitive landscape, with the UCP leading at 48% and the NDP trailing at 43%.
Huh, thanks. That’s actually more recent than the polls in the graph, I wonder when they’re going to get it put up.
Calgary is definitely going to be the battleground. Having a prominent former Calgary mayor as candidate should help at least a bit. I can’t say it’s impossible we’ll elect her again, but I can say all her ideas are unpopular, and that her messaging isn’t strong.
The graph is a projection based on an aggregation of polls, it already accounts for it. For context, it’s from https://338canada.com/alberta
No, it ends on Dec. 20th. It looks like your link is from 2026. They haven’t added it yet.
And none of that matters. Because here in Alberta we vote by color and not policies. And yes I used American spelling on purpose.
Context:
Yup. Last poll on Dec. 20th, too. Presumably the trend has continued.
Here’s to hoping it continues! 🍺
Following the Trump playbook.
I really hate the americanization of politics that is happening - from PP’s slogans and refusal to engage on any meaningful topic, to this garbage in Alberta.
I wish there was a way of stamping this out for good, rather than having these voices amplified in our media, etc…

She’s engineering a backlash against the justice system. By finding way to defund the justice system, she’s amplifying the already revolving door nature of the courts to justify brutal police crackdowns. By manufacturing a crisis she can engineer public consent for independence.
Postmedia will help her out by bringing attention to each scary sounding criminal who ends up falling through the cracks thanks to this lack of funding, and they’ll try to misrepresent the situation as current judges being soft on crime.
It’s depressing that it will work on a good portion of Albertans, just like when UCP cut municipal funding to Calgary and Edmonton, then Postmedia ran a campaign smearing the councils for not being good fiscal managers, leaving out the important detail of the UCP withholding funding and interfering in city projects costing cities millions of dollars.
She’s a Trump-loving fascist, and a separatist traitor.
It’sntime for the federal government to get a judge to rule on the legality of her actions.
They already have a case about the NWC cooking. Maybe they can sue her for the money to fulfill Alberta’s court system obligations next.
