Doug Firby investigates why so many jurisdictions, most notably Alberta, are considering dropping the Mounties to build their own police forces โ€“ and why the strongest impetus for change might end up coming from Ottawa.

When asked about Danielle Smith's claims of Indigenous heritage, many attendees at a press conference involving Treaty 6, 7 and 8 broke out into laughter. #yeg #Yyc #ableg (via @APTNNews)

OK, friends. Like so many others, I'm getting ready to say goodbye to this medium. For those who are thinking of moving to "M", you'll be able to find me there.

Alberta's premier is taking sweeping actions without a mandate. This is profoundly anti-democratic. If you want to make big changes, call an election now.

As a former supporter I can't overstate my disgust. Given past substantiated allegations, this continues a dangerous pattern unfit for #yyccc. I support @JyotiGondek completely. @ABDanielleSmith & @rebeccakschulz: Act now to remove him, or else be complicit enablers. #abpoli

Also struck by how partisan this mandate letter is. That last line is appropriate for a speech or press conference, not a ministerial mandate letter.

Lets think for a moment about the latest horrific behaviour by @seanchucalgary @JyotiGondek had demonstrators protesting at her house. So Chu thought he should take a picture of her license plate and circulate it on social media, so protestors could follow her around the city.

Beyond stupid. Didn't her predecessor burn off $1.3 B on Keystone XL? You're SUPPOSED TO MAKE SMART investments, not ideological ones.
