Person with 6 figure income and the ability to bring her baby to work advocating to get rid of 10$ a day childcare.
Ffs guys. This isn’t the winner you think it is.
Canadian families don't need Ottawa-knows-best childcare - they should have access to flexibility in childcare.
Conservatives will continue to fight for freedom and to allow families to choose what is best for their children.

Vaccine Passports don’t mandate you get a vax.
They mandate that you are denied entry to non-essential events and services until the passing of a health crisis. If you are unvaxxed - do our system a favour and stay home until we can get our hospitals cleared. Or we force you to.

Some businesses have taken a more of a hit than others. Parents of young kids have struggled with home schooling and work. But vax passport systems, masking, and shifting in response to waves saves lives with most reasonable level of public intrusion.

Kenney has a significant majority. That he isn’t willing to lose some seats in order to do the right thing also raises the possibility that a huge segment of his caucus is totally offside public opinion on this matter. In which case - we are being governed by morons.

If your protest is hijacked (I’m being generous here…) by nazis and confederate flag lovers it’s time to call off the protest, issue statements condemning this behaviour and regroup.
This hasn’t happened because this is the core of the protest.

Alberta stands ready, willing and able to supply the energy needed to displace Russia from global markets.
