“True North, a right-wing media organization, promoted the event on social media as “the most important free speech event of the year”

“Media outlets were denied access to the event and were unable to hear the premier’s remarks.”

Alberta in a nutshell.

Danielle Smith shattered separatists dreams of a second kick at the separation referendum can today...

When asked if she would allow for another referendum, she said...

"Not as long as I'm premier".

"The rule of law is under vicious attack in this province and I am not the first, nor will I be the last, to call this out. When an institution is silent in the face of what is happening in this province, that silence is complicity." Another resignation at the Law Society.

The NDP have released a statement condemning violence after a Muslim school in Calgary received emails threatening to kill children & telling Muslims to leave Canada.

It appears there is no similar statement from the premier.

Or her Justice Minister.

Uh...

Hey Devon?

You might want to check in on your mayor....

Cause he's out on facebook spreading BS conspiracy theories about immigration, pipelines being built, carbon neutral trees and more.

Only thing missing here is 5G.

Got MAID tho...

Evan Romanow, who allegedly had inside knowledge of the “CorruptCare” scandal…

Has just been appointed to Deputy Minister of Hospital and Surgical Health Services.

It’s a little hard to buy the premise of yet another of the referendum questions…

When Mickey Amery’s Deputy Minister and rumored architect of the Notwithstanding Clause usage…

Just gets appointed to the Court of Kings Bench by the feds.

Nenshi had strong words today about Danielle Smith sending MLA's & Ministers on luxurious trips and vacations on the taxpayers dime while the province heads into a referendum.

Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation is calling out Smith’s claims she had no idea separatists were meeting with the US State Department…

While pointing out they raised the alarm on this months ago.

With receipts.

Today Smith was asked to define what percentage of the vote would give her the "strong mandate" on her racist and unconstitutional questions...

Her ultimate answer?

50% + 1

Q - Municipal governments have had control over land use without interference for over 100 years. Why step in now when there was just an election on this?

Smith - People came and expressed their concerns to me and theres been some reporting...

Reporting!

"Today is not about writing or dictating EXACTLY what municipalities in the province of Alberta's residential zoning bylaw should say" - Dan Williams

So...

Municipalities can still choose the font of the new rules the province is mandating?

Danielle Smith confirming the rumors...

She has stepped in to override elected councillors and the voters who elected them.

But at least there's a small group of carefully assembled people off to the side to give her the adulation she needs.

The NDP are calling out the UCP using the taxpayers purse to travel the globe...

Including to promote gambling...

In Las Vegas.
