Danielle Smith says equalization has overpaid recipient provinces by $7 billion in five years. Her solution: End the automatic escalator. Equalize only to actual need. Return the excess to every province equally per capita. Mark Carney’s answer? Equalization is about fairness, comparable services and another future review. Smith proposed... show more

🚨 DANIELLE SMITH JUST SAID WHAT MANY ALBERTANS HAVE BELIEVED FOR YEARS According to Alberta Premier Danielle Smith: • Alberta loses an estimated $20–25 billion every year to Ottawa • Around $600 billion has left the province over recent decades • That money could have funded lower taxes, infrastructure, healthcare and social spending at home • Albertans are effectively paying thousands more while feeling increasingly ignored by Ottawa Her message was blunt: “Alberta is not being treated fairly.” As separatist sentiment grows and frustration with federal politics deepens, questions around Alberta’s future inside Confederation are only getting louder. The debate is no longer confined to the fringes.

WATCH: Alberta Premier Danielle Smith says Ottawa is overtaxing Albertans to send money to Quebec and other Liberal voting regions: "Alberta year after year has $20 to $25 billion that is siphoned out of our system to go to Ottawa so that it could be spent mostly in Quebec, but also in other places that vote Liberal...It is $5,000 per Albertan that every single year gets transferred out of this province for political reasons so that the Liberals can continue to spend it in places that vote Liberal."

I need Danielle or someone from her team to explain this to me because this isn't making sense. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith: "Let's have an aggressive target to double our population." Smith wants to get Alberta's population to 10m people so we can be taken seriously by the federal government. Huh?! We barely have the infrastructure to sustain current population. Our water infrastructure in Calgary is falling apart. Alberta is already the province of choice for people to move to and it's creating mass unaffordability in the rental market and housing. Alberta is already full of LMIA scams and leading the country in unemployment. Why do we need to destroy our province and make the mistakes other provinces made to peacock for the federal government?

⚜️🖕🇨🇦 : I am so fed up with Quebec demanding they get special treatment in Canada, at the expense of everyone else. Are you just as fed up? The Bloc Québécois demand that Quebec tax dollars to only be invested in Quebec. The Bloc Québécois says they must protect key sectors of the Quebec economy & the French language. At the same time Quebec takes in huge sums of taxes from the rest of Canada through a rigged equalization formula that gives Quebec over $13 billion every year in “equalization”. This despite Quebec having a comparable economic strength to British Columbia, which is forced to pay into equalization. Quebec gets to hide their #1 source of natural revenue (Hydro) from the equalization formula, making them poor on paper only. Quebec also gets extra Canadian taxpayer cash for… 💰Immigration 💰Heritage 💰Culture 💰Languages 💰French only government jobs 💰Corporate bailouts 💰SNC Lavalin contracts across 🇨🇦 Meanwhile Quebec demands the rest of Canada shift away from oil & gas to Quebec approve clean energy. This directly hurts Alberta and the rest of Canada that relies on equalization payments, to keep their Provinces from becoming super poor. This also stifled foreign investment because it adds an extra layer of uncertainty to any major oil & gas project. Yet Quebec is quite happy to allow foreign oil to pour into the Canadian economy. Time to treat Quebec like everyone else. There is nothing special about a Province that leeches off the poor, while claiming they're a Nation in waiting.

"If we're going to rail against equalization at the federal level, then we can't keep doing the same thing to our municipalities." Last night, Council approved our property tax bylaw, complying with the UCP government's order to issue their largest property tax hike in our city's history. Despite our Council team approving only a 1.2% tax increase for city services like police and fire, Calgarians will see an increase nearly ten times that. **You need to know that nearly half of your property tax bill goes to the province, in an equalization formula described here by the Premier.** The UCP has hiked property taxes by 57% in four years. Their latest 21% increase represents about $339 more per household. Chestermere and Airdrie will pay even more than that. By contrast, Edmonton homeowners will only pay $154 more. Our Council team cares about affordability. We will continue to push for responsible spending while investing in core services like safety and infrastructure. Let's work together for a fair deal for municipalities and deliver transparency for where property tax dollars actually go.

Can someone translate for Quebeckers? "And Alberta, year after year has 20 to 25 billion dollars that is siphoned out of our system to go to Ottawa so that it can be spent mostly in Quebec, but also in other places that vote Liberal." "$600 billion in the last 40 or 50 years that have been taken out of this province." "You don't think we might be able to do a little bit more on social spending if those 20 to 25 billion dollars stayed here?" Danielle Smith Rebecca Schulz Trevor Tombe

🚨 UPenn Law Professor Says Child Protective Services Is Part of a White Supremacist Kidnapping Regime, "Abolition is the Only Answer" Dorothy E. Roberts, the George A. Weiss University Professor of Law and Sociology and the Raymond Pace and Sadie Tanner Mossell Alexander Professor of Civil Rights, is not just critiquing child protective services. She says the “family policing system” literally kidnaps children, exists to uphold a “capitalist, racist, white supremacist, patriarchal, ableist system,” and must be abolished outright. This is an Ivy League civil-rights and law professor telling an audience that abolishing CPS is the only way to keep children safe. “We see that abolition is the only answer to the harms that the system is inflicting on children and also the only answer to truly supporting families and keeping children safe.” “I think that at abolishing the family policing system is a necessary step. Even to imagine more creatively about families, but it’s also a necessary step to stop the punishment of families that don’t meet the, you know, heterosexist, racist family norm.” Roberts argues that child protective services is a false front that survives only because any real change would threaten the racial capitalist system she believes it protects. “What it’s really protecting is the idea that this nation cares about the safety of children and the the reason why children aren’t safe is because of their pathological parents, they’re deficient parents. Therefore, you know, why, why have that, why believe that? Because then you don’t need radical social change.” Roberts says her experience has taught her that the time for reform is over. “I, so I know very well from personal experience that reform does not work, and that’s what led me to write my book Torn Apart, that takes a very strong and clear stand for abolition as the only way, again, not only to end the harms that this system inflicts, but also to imagine and create the approach that we need to truly keep children safe and support families.” You would hope UPenn would be embarrassed by this. Based on their track record the past few years, they will probably just keep their heads in the sand.

Finance Minister François-Philippe Champagne was asked where the $25 BILLION endowment for Carney’s Canadian Wealth Fund is coming from. His answer? Canada has a AAA credit rating, so we can borrow at lower rates. Translation: Borrow the money first. Then when asked what return Canadians can expect if they invest, Champagne basically says they still need to consult the financial industry and stakeholders. So Ottawa wants a $25B fund. Canadians can buy in. But the return? They’ll get back to you. What could possibly go wrong?

Now is the time to bring Albertans together by securing big wins for our province that provide hope for a prosperous future, not follow the NDP into anger and division. I will continue to call out the NDP when they offer only outrage instead of working to right the wrongs of Ottawa these past 10 years, and I will keep standing up for Albertans who are rightly frustrated with the deal this province has received for far too long. We are turning the tide for our province and country. Let’s keep it up.

🌹🏫💰 : The population of Alberta has grown by 12% in five years. 📈 The Province is facing a potential $9.4 billion deficit. 💰 Proving prosperity and population growth don't go hand in hand. Danielle Smith explains she is raising property taxes in cities like Calgary, to build essential infrastructure & schools to accommodate all the new arrivals. She says 40% of all the growth pressure in Alberta is happening in Calgary. 🗳️ If there were a referendum tomorrow, how would those 600K new arrivals vote? 🇨🇦 I am betting they would vote to stay in Canada, to collect their benefits & future immigration, for their families.

Property tax bills are due today. Imagine if Ottawa forced Alberta to collect a big federal tax hike on provincial letterhead. That's how municipalities are treated with the Province's 57% property tax increase over four years. It's time to keep property taxes local, with clear accountability and transparency. Imagine if Justin Trudeau ordered Danielle Smith to collect a massive federal tax increase through Alberta's tax bill. She'd be furious. That’s exactly what’s happening today to Alberta’s cities, with today’s deadline to pay your property tax bill. Not many of you may know, but now upwards of half of your property taxes go to the provincial government, and not the town, city, or municipality you live in. The biggest increase on your property tax bill didn't come from City Hall. It came from the Provincial government. The Province imposed a 21 percent increase on your property tax bill, the largest property tax increase in Calgary's history. Over the past four years, it has increased the education property tax by 57 percent. By comparison, our Council held the municipal property tax increase to just 1.8 percent. That funds police, firefighters, roads, transit, parks, snow clearing, recreation centres, and the infrastructure that keeps Calgary moving. Because of the Province's education property tax equalization formula, Calgary homeowners are paying about twice the increase faced by Edmonton homeowners. Don't take my word for it. Here's how the Premier herself describes where a large share of your property tax goes. "If we're going to rail against equalization at the federal level, then we can't keep doing the same thing to our municipalities..." The Premier is right. If we're going to oppose equalization at the federal level, we shouldn't be doing the same thing to Alberta's municipalities. Property taxes are local taxes. They should stay local. The Province should fund provincial priorities through its other revenue sources, and municipalities should collect property taxes for local services. Thank you for supporting the City services that keep Calgary safe, moving, and growing.

We need better healthcare in America – not sick-care. I see it first-hand every day because my wife is a surgeon. She wants to get her patients healthy with the full range of options: diet, exercise, preventative medicine. Yet all the system wants to pay for is more pills. Americans keep getting sicker. Only health insurance profit margins get healthier. The solution? End anti-trust exemptions for health insurance companies. Let the competitive marketplace flourish.

Nanos says it: Canadians care about affordability—not Trump. Mark Carney won by saying he could ‘handle Trump,’ bragged that ‘Canada doesn’t need the U.S.,’ and promised to make life affordable… And now? The economy’s in flames, people can’t afford rent or food (so much so the government has to feed your kids), and the only thing he wants to talk about is Trump. Meanwhile, the guy actually talking about the cost of living gets painted as the problem. Make it make sense. It’s almost like distraction is the whole strategy.
