Great to see that even after gerrymandering much of Florida, many Democrats are still getting elected to the House.

Gerrymandering should never be allowed and election maps should only be approved by an independent commission versus having parties in power draw their own maps.

Here’s one of the leaders of the separatist movement suggesting the Premier just randomly fire @JeromyYYC even though he was elected a year ago.

Who cares about democracy? Clearly not the separatists.

I’m no fan of @ABDanielleSmith these days… but firing @JeromyYYC would go a long way towards making her seem less weak.

The only question is would Mark Carney give her permission to do it given that Carney runs her.

To say something so disrespectful about Senator Simons makes me think you’ve never actually met her @McAllisterBruce. This is a person who would occasionally be critical of me, but there is never any doubt that she wants what is best for Edmontonians, Albertans, and Canadians.

In 2013, columnist Paula Simons asked why Canada bothers with “an unelected upper house, full of entitled toffs who can’t be turfed.”
In 2026, Senator Paula Simons - unelected, Trudeau-appointed, paid nearly $200k a year by taxpayers until 2039 - calls it “truly vile” when Albertans put that same question on a ballot.
I guess appointment is a hell of a conversion experience. I think Charles Adler had the same conversion.
What’s actually vile is that she sits in that high chamber pretending to speak for Alberta. It is a joke to think Paula Simons represents the culture and can-do attitude of this province. The great majority of Albertans would never - that’s right, never - vote for her or her grifting pal Kris Wells to represent them anywhere. #ableg #cdnpoli
