Alberta had an $8.3B surplus at the end of fiscal year 2024-25. Seeing such a rapid swing of $15.8 BILLION into the negative should be a huge red flag to every single Albertan. There is nothing fiscally responsible about the UCP #ableg https://t.co/i3GzyFo9M5

Oilers: "We're going to announce the biggest trade of the day" Wild: "Hold my beer"

One take was all it took for @pancholi_rakhi to deliver the most on-point summary of the fall session you need to hear. This is what you see from a government panicking with their backs against the wall. It's not about serving Albertans, it's about holding onto power. #ableg

For all the ups and downs that Stu endured in Edmonton… I’ll miss him from a human standpoint He was always so optimistic in the face of so much negative attention and was a joy to talk to in the #Oilers dressing room Best of luck in Pittsburgh!

In a year-end interview, Premier Smith says: - Expecting a $7.5B deficit - Need $74/bbl oil to balance (budgeted at $68/bbl in Budget 2025) - Alberta will not be able to balance the budget #ableg

Advocacy groups apply to keep court case against Alberta trans law alive

Congratulations to the new Edmonton-based @ArcanautStudios on their spiritual successor to Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic. It's great to see developers reinvigorating the video game industry in AB & creating jobs here! Congrats to @CaseyDHudson & team! #ableg #abpoli

Welcome (back) to Oil Country, Tristan! 👊 #LetsGoOilers

With that, one of the wildest sittings in Alberta history has come to an end. 4 uses of the Notwithstanding Clause; 1 new immuity granted to the Minister of Justice; 0 support for Albertans when they need it most. Wishing all MLAs safe travels home for the holidays #ableg

Today, on International Human Rights Day, Albertans woke up in a province where the rights of one of our most vulnerable minorities have been overridden by a government whose only concern is its own ideological base. 1/2 #ableg #abpoli

This bit of legislative manoeuvring by Amery: Elections Alberta warns Justice Minister is usurping its discretion on vetting citizen's initiatives... so Amery amends Bill 14 so NOBODY can vet a referendum question for jurisdiction, constitutionality, etc

🚨WATCH: “That the leader of the opposition would do this is ridiculous. It lets Alberta down, but I shouldn’t be surprised. Being elected in Battle River does not an Albertan make!” - Corey Hogan (@coreyhoganyyc) 🔥OUCH!🔥 @PierrePoilievre #cdnpoli

Last night the UCP used their power to limit debate on multiple bills to a single hour. They’ve done it over 80 times in 6 years. I had a few choice words in response & in defence of Albertans who deserve a government that respects democracy. Better is possible. #ableg

Wild to think the Assembly website will soon have more than two parties in the Legislature for the first time since 2019. Just #ableg nerd things.

Alberta’s Chief Electoral Officer also has concerns about Bill 14. This letter was sent to MLAs today. “If enacted, the result of Bill 14 is an erosion of the separation of powers.” Last week, a judge had objections: https://t.co/cUivDmIYSr

Quite the caper down in Lethbridge: the Nate Neudorf recall campaign isn't circulating its petition, and petition leader is ghosting would-be canvassers. Activists fear a scam designed to protect Neudorf, not oust him. https://t.co/OArHBSscHV by me

So, in addition to limiting debate on Bills 9 and 11, the government is planning to limit debate on Bill 14 (citizen initiative amendments to consolidate power, Attorney General immunity from Law Society, etc). Bill 14 was just introduced last week #ableg

Debate: Cancelled! After Question Period today, the UCP shut down the Legislature and cancelled Private Members’ Business - stopping non-government MLAs from debating anything at all. That move killed debate on my Motions for Return and Written Questions. In six and a half

The Conservative pipeline motion is an unserious stunt that tries to score points at the expense of our nation. A yes vote could undermine consultation. A no vote could undermine confidence. Canada loses either way.
