“The left”? It’s only the left that would prefer Canada did not knuckle under or suck up to Trump? Is this really where you want to take this? Can somebody at Conservative HQ take away Stephen’s phone?

A stunning essay in the FT on the international decline in the ability to read, reason, focus, and learn new things. It began or accelerated in the early 2010s. It's hitting teens AND adults. Self-report and objective scores. by John Burn-Murdoch ft.com/content/a8016c…

Given that federal carbon tax added more than 17cents per litre to gas prices, how fast will we see station prices drop? cbc.ca/news/politics/…

We've obtained multiple documents to show the many many ways that UCP government has intervened in major health procurement decisions, even if Danielle Smith says it's all an AHS internal issue: cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

.@AbDanielleSmith asks Trump to pause his tariffs on Canada, just so Poilievre could win the election. Canadian sovereignty, economy and jobs mean nothing to Danielle. It’s all about winning. Not Canadians winning. Conservatives winning. #ableg #cdnpoli breitbart.com/politics/2025/…

When ⁦Danielle Smith ran for the leadership of the UCP, I argued that she was unfit for public office. This interview (and the fact she didn’t tell Albertans about it!) prove I was right. I don’t believe in recall, but I’m open to an exception here. breitbart.com/politics/2025/…

Premier Danielle Smith admits she influenced US administration officials to hold off tariffs to give Pierre Poilievre the best chance at winning the upcoming election. She even admits Pierre would be in sync with the new direction of America led by Trump!!

I'm sorry ... but inviting a country OPENLY advocating annexation to meddle in our democratic process is fundamentally disloyal and likely treasonous when performed by someone who has taken an oath of office. I invite a crown prosecutor to examine this woman's conduct

The S&P 500 has lost 10.5% of its value in two days. Since 1980, we've only seen larger declines three other times: the '87 crash, Nov 2008, and Mar 2020. And those weren't due to policy choices. This may be the largest self-imposed destruction of wealth ever.

Looking forward to all the columnists in Canada talking about how our education system is failing us, as we are now only….[checks notes] … 3rd best in the world, and the best in the western hemisphere. 🦗🇨🇦

free and fair elections in canada. campaign a few weeks long, not very expensive. ballots counted same day. nobody contests the outcome. when democracies work they’re the best political systems we have.

When schools go truly phone free--collected and stored away for the day--the results are transformative. When phones are only prohibited during class time, they are still very disruptive DURING class. Give kids and teachers a break.

I’ve gotten used to seeing AB push polls but Alberta Next “consultation” is outrageous. Just did the immigration one. From the very first sentence being a lie (no, we don’t have an open border policy) to options all having nudges, a dumpster fire in survey design top to bottom.

Thnx to historic investments in Ontario, we’re making ++progress towards building a system where every person is attached to primary care. The 2026–27 call for proposals is now open, with each Ontario Health Team eligible to submit at least 1 proposal. More here from Kelly Grant

The UCP has made 2025 one of the darkest years for Alberta’s democracy. Albertans can turn on the lights in 2026. By simply being Albertan. Let me explain. 🧵
