In Alberta we believe in free speech. Full stop.

@eastiswest93 Don’t just talk about it. The Edmonton police chief should be fired. You should have done something before you tweeted.

That's not true. You took away the rights of teachers, and monitor their social media accounts.

But you banned books. How is that free speech?

In B.C. teachers like me get fired for teaching factual history. Beware Albertans. Don’t let the weeds of Woke get too strong. The picture is from the firing letter I got.

Is that why you used the Notwithstanding clause on teachers to limit their rights?

You're bat-shit crazy and a danger to Canadian sovereignty.

It “freedom of expression” and not all speeches are protected if it’s hate etc

I can prove otherwise Premier Smith, your government is the most corrupt in Canadian history #ableg

Danielle... The city of Edmonton officials, departments, and EPS need to be fully investigated. They are running anti-free speech ads, programs, propaganda, and vow to police hurt feelings. This smacks like an Owellian dystopia being established in Edmonton.

Did you tell the Edmonton police any of this? They are looking for any reason to get someone for mean posts

We are not Americans as much as you wish we are. Freedom of expression has limits. You are truly horrible - every day the garbage politics intensifies.

Too funny. @ABDanielleSmith reveals the shallowness of her understanding of the phrase “free speech” (not surprised she uses the American phrase - Canadians use the more comprehensive “freedom of expression”)

Free speech, but censorship and book bans are cool 🙄

In Canada we believe in Freedom of Expression. It has its limits and doesn’t include hate speech. Full stop. Don’t test the law unless you’re willing to accept the consequences

That's not true.

In other words: The UCP have aligned themselves with the KKK and feel it important to protect them.

“Free speech. Full stop” does not include banning books or policing libraries - full stop!

really is that why you're removing perfectly appropraite books from libraries. Because of few nutjobs in your party!

Only for people who align with your ideology.

So what's happening to the edmonton police?

@UCPCaucus So you are saying you are meddling with the justice system. Good to know. Crown prosecutors wasn’t it? You never talked to crown prosecutors 👍

Unless you're transgender, Indigenous, or prefer water to coal... In those cases, if you are in Danberta,you can go pluck yourself Right Duplicitous Dani?

What are you going to do to protect Albertans from Bill C-22 the Carney Liberals mass surveillance bill?

I can hear @NatePike and the good folks from @TheBreakdownAB laughing their asses off right now She doesn't even believe in some people 🏳️‍⚧️ speaking freely to their own doctors, about their inherent rights 🪶, or without threat of a parental spanking 👏🏽

Stop the gaslighting. In Canada, we have freedom of expression, as stated in the Charter and it most certainly does not include the “freedom” to express racist and hateful “speech”.

Well said. However, for some reason, Edmonton begs to differ. As Premier, could you please take care of this?

Or you can vote for Alberta independence and bypass this entire problem of government overreach and censorship 🤔

Okay Marlaina! Whatever you say. That’s honest speech.

Too many immigrants in the cities to fight this, Smith. Find the source of the problem and erase it.

Hate speech is not free speech

If you knew anything about the consitution.. It's Freedom of Expression. Canada does not have Free Speech.

How many people have you blocked over the years?

Free speech includes criticizing immigration and pointing to clear patterns among immigrants. This is the opposite to what we're seeing recently.
