NDP MLA from Edmonton, Rod Loyola, is stepping down. I wonder if he is doing so in order to run in the federal campaign as either an NDP or Liberal?

Just reading that Danielle Smith is in Florida this week speaking at a fundraiser for Dennis Prager, a religious nutjob who's specialty is the indoctrination of children, he's also an anitivax loon. Travelling at the expense of Alberta taxpayers, just great.
She's such a vile pig, I detest her.

I saw Danielle Smith referred to as "Mar-a-Laina" and I can't stop laughing at that.

How does one call in a tip to US immigration that a foreigner is visiting Florida for 'work' and may need to be detained by them?

How does this damn lady keep going all these US trips and then has the audacity to skip out on the all-hands Premier meetings and call in virtually instead?
She's literally in it for herself and her own personal gains. Does she not understand optics? Like at all?

The average cost of outsourced surgical procedures has soared by 79 per cent since 2019, when the United Conservative Party Government policy of contracting out private surgical services through the ASI began, says the report based on available public data.
“Between the 2022-23 and 2023-24 fiscal years, the average cost of an outsourced procedure rose by 52 per cent,” Mr. Longhurst wrote in the report released this morning by the Edmonton-based Parkland Institute. “This represents a significant acceleration in cost growth, as the previous year saw only a 13-per-cent increase.”
The big cost jump is likely the result of negotiated contract prices with private surgical providers being ratcheted up, he said. But the magnitude of the increase “cannot be explained by inflation or other reasonable hikes in input costs.”

The conclusions of Mr. Longhurst’s report, however, are much broader. Not only do the data show how for-profit surgical contracts in Alberta have shot upward, they indicate the ASI has resulted in longer wait times for critical surgeries and diverted limited pool of qualified surgeons and other medical staff from public hospitals at the same time as the government’s funding of public hospitals has declined.

So we've been enriching private shareholders instead of fixing our healthcare system. The dollars are there, you people have just been electing politicians that have been sabotaging the system for years. And the government shows no sign of reversing course here.

Well that's the thing, she doesn't have to. This province has proven time and again that it doesn't matter what someone does while in office, as long as they have that blue C next to their name come election time it's all good

The best part is that she wanted the US to put a hold on tariffs so that it didn't torpedo PP's chances but she's doing it herself. Every time she goes down to the States it makes more headlines. If she was smart and followed her own advice she'd be laying low.

Holy flying effs. Boobbus is talking right now defending on why she is going to see Racist Rightwing Media personalities.
Trudeau made her do it! He wanted everyone to go down to the US to talk with all the media to convince Trump to stop the tariffs. Well she didn't bring up that she is meeting with Ben Shapiro a guy who wants to annex Canada.
Now Carney is PM and is making her out to be treasonous.....
Can someone kick this piece of crap Premier in the crotch!

Ahh the old #### punt. Doubly works cause she is one, while getting kicked in one. About as poetic as could be if it happened.
