Big rally rolling through downtown Edmonton. Thousands shouting “UCP has got to go” and “Alberta election now.” The gov’t issued a statement saying this is the work of a failed NDP candidate (Gil McGowan) and this will fail like recalls & a general strike did. #ableg #cdnpoli

Not that it really matters, but since there’s debate in the replies… The separatists and the pro-Canada/anti-UCP folks both had midday rallies recently. I was at both. The Fight Back one today was at least 10 times the size. #ableg #cdnpoli

Alberta's Bill 54 - which would lower the signature threshold for referendums, inc. one on separation - was literally thrown on the ground and called "garbage" at a press conference in west Edmonton this afternoon. Chiefs say separation violates Treaties. #ableg #cdnpoli

So…there was a Rolls Royce Limo at Mark Carney’s campaign launch in Edmonton yesterday. But nobody was in it when it arrived. Carney’s campaign says someone hired it to make him look bad. We saw Mark leave his rehearsal earlier in running shoes and a regular car. #cdnpoli

After urging Albertans to sign a separation petition because the "status quo is unacceptable"... UCP MLA Jason Stephan has refused, for 2 days, to stop and talk to reporters. I also asked the premier about the op-ed. More tonight! #ableg #cdnpoli

This clip could be really telling on where UCP MLAs stand on separation... It appears the premier was about to say "entire" caucus but edited that word out. Polls suggest 40% of UCP voters want to leave Canada and Jeff Rath alleges some of Smith's MLAs have signed the petition.

A lot of rumours flying around #ableg about RCMP raids... The Mounties tell me "multiple search warrants" have been executed related to health contracts, but they won't name anyone. So I asked the justice minister if he, or any of his colleagues, are involved in this.

Just saw a ton of wildland firefighters leaving, a bunch of city-style fire trucks entering. They’re fighting til the end. #JasperWildfire
