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

Gonna take a second to acknowledge the dedicated journalists out here covering #Jasper wildfires. CityNews, CBC, Radio Canada, Global, CTV all helping each other, working long hours in rough conditions, hanging in late now to provide an essential service. #abfire #yeg

The Alberta NDP just hung a Canadian flag from the QEII Building, across from #ableg. They allege the premier is betraying the country with her Breitbart comments and Shapiro appearance. #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

An awesome update from Jasper Park Lodge: it’s damaged, but it survived. Most of the buildings are OK and the iconic resort will reopen at some point. #abfire #Jasper

What a quote from Adam Henrique today: “Yeah, maybe you sacrifice a bit of ice time or even, I guess, money at the end of the day. But to have that opportunity to win and to play in Edmonton, in front of those fans, was special for me.” #yeg #Oilers

“We don’t want her here,” Chief Allan Adam says of Alberta Premier Danielle Smith. The leader of the Athabasca Chipewyan First Nation told reporters this morning that if Smith continues to push separatism forward, she should just leave. #ableg #cdnpoli

"I'd like to run and hide," Alberta's Indigenous Minister said today. It came after one Chief threw Bill 54 on the ground yesterday and another said the premier is "not welcome here anymore." More tonight. #ableg #cdnpoli @CityNewsYEG

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy is now literally sitting in Trump's place at the G7 table, right next to PM Carney. The U.S. president took off a day early. #cdnpoli #G7Summit2025

The mayor of Jasper just confirmed that the municipality will not be offering an apology to Premier Danielle Smith and Alberta, as she has demanded. He says the report is not political and does not lay blame, as the premier has stated. #ableg #cdnpoli

The #Jasper situation is bleak this hour but word is they are not giving up. Here are some firefighters headed to town just now to try to save it. More are on the way soon, I’m told. The blaze is on Jasper’s doorstep right now. #yeg #abfire

Lots of workers, big trucks leaving Jasper this hour. Waves of them. One tow truck driver: “it’s over boys. There won’t be a town left in the morning.” We don’t know if that’s true. But things are not looking good. The ash is pouring down. #Jasper #abfire #yeg

Liberal MP Boissonnault went off on Premier Smith this morning in Ottawa: “There is deep frustration with Premier Smith & her government in Edmonton.… She’s simply not doing her job & she’s soaking fears about the US putting chemtrails in the air? It’s simply bonkers.” #ableg
