This just sickens me.

In my personal opinion, this is not about frontline staff. It is about a government that provides too few housing options, forces vulnerable youth through bureaucratic processes, and offers a pittance for basic needs. Read this child’s complaint to the Alberta Human Rights Commission. #abpoli

That was a scary hour

The AFL is proud to be one of 100+ organizations that signed an open letter defending the Canadian Museum for Human Rights against the campaign targeting its Nakba exhibit. Read the letter: ijvcanada.org/defend-cmhr

Why are we seeing record-hot temps and heatwaves around the world right now? Because most of the world's oceans have been record-hot for months. Plus, the new El Niño is already pushing more heat out of the Pacific.

Starting Friday, Albertans will be able to decide for themselves whether they need a range of medical diagnostic tests. They can pay a private provider to do them and, in some cases, be reimbursed, by @mattscace.bsky.social www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/artic... via @theglobeandmail.com

Ha!

The Canada Strong Pass is back for summer 2026! The Government of Canada is offering free admission and a 25% discount on fees for camping and overnight stays from June 19 to September 7, 2026 inclusive. parks.canada.ca/voyage-trave...

Exactly. That’s how privatization starts: with “reasonable” exceptions. Once paying out of pocket is normalized, the wedge gets wider. Healthcare should depend on need, not your ability to pay.

If you think something is wrong with your health, you should be able to see a doctor and get the tests you need through our "public healthcare system." The AB #UCP shouldn't be creating barriers or shifting basic medical care toward private pay .. with the premise that you COULD be paid back.

Smith’s illegal push toward private, for-profit health care threatens universal medicare and appeasing her doesn’t prevent the separatist threat. As I told the Toronto Star: protecting public health care is key to showing Canada works for Albertans. www.thestar.com www.thestar.com/politics/fed...

Apparently gambling addiction doesn't warrant forced treatment, but with the UCP expanding online gambling it's just a matter of time before this explodes in their faces. If addiction is the issue, then why promote one while criminalizing another?

Emergency doctors are leaving or reducing hours in face of 'hopeless' ER crisis, Sharon Kirkey reports. This article and more at canadahealthwatch.ca #CdnHealth

Co-founders Eris Nyx and Jeremy Kalicum were buying, rigorously testing and selling meth, cocaine and heroin for a compassion club. They said if people knew what they were taking they were less likely to overdose. The approach was working, but then they were arrested and convicted of trafficking.

Meanwhile, the unregulated supply continues to get more unpredictable and toxic. Medetomidine is found in around 30% of all opioids, and a new synthetic opioid Cychlorphine is also showing up. It's 10x more powerful than fent, but can't be detected by test strips drugcheckingbc.ca/wp-content/u...

I think we’ve fully crossed the threshold from “this weather is annoying” to “this weather is genuinely alarming”
