Also a reminder… when you hear workers demanding raises of 30% (!) you’ll usually find a group that hasn’t had a raise in a decade, and our average annual inflation of 2.5% over that period means 30% is only just *barely* getting their heads back above water.
Public school support workers are *still* on strike…
A reminder to Edmontonians that support workers for EPSB are into their 9th week of strike action, stuck on the pickets instead of in schools because the GoA - which pulls the strings from behind the scenes using secret mandate letters - refuses to let the school board negotiate in good faith. Two school trustees have resigned in protest.

The Maple · The UCP Has Kneecapped Alberta Education Workers’ Strike RightsThere’s little on which the UCP and federal Liberals agree, but when it comes to undermining workers, they’re of the same mind.
"Alberta Health Minister Adriana LaGrange wouldn’t recommend all residents get the measles vaccination, despite being asked point blank by CTV News on Thursday. "
Fuck you LaGrange. Call 811 and ask if you should get a booster.

Magazine deadlines being what they are, I filed this in early January. I will post the link when it goes live on April 1st, so all can see it. I know posting photos of dense text like this violates Mastodon etiquette - but for reasons that will become apparent, I wanted to share it as soon as possible - while it was still relevant. #Trump #Ukraine #Putin #quislings #cdnpoli #ableg #abpoli #AlbertaViews #Alberta
Get off the O&G train already, or: Why can’t Alberta see the writing on the wall?
2015: Global oil prices cratered
2019: UCP elected, begin doubling down on O&G
2020: Oil prices free fall, hit negative territory
2024: Renewables moratorium
2025: US Trade war threatens Canadian O&G exports
If we can’t learn from reality - even when it repeatedly hits us over the head - we’ll end up like Newfoundland after the cod stocks collapsed.
If anyone has a relationship with MTE Logistix in the NW of Edmonton and knows about the GoA Parol or PPe storage, please DM me. Your info will be protected and anonymized.

Climenhaga's latest (Alberta Politics .ca), which discusses the pallets of Tylenot and defective PPE, is a joy to read.
As Albertans question every deal the UCP makes, the Parol (aka Tylenot) has been confirmed to be stored at MTE Logistix in NW Edmonton at a cost of over $100,000 a month.
This is confirmed to me via a DM from someone who worked for a subsidiary of MTE.
$100,000 a MONTH.
