    Honoured to join @ianhanomansing @CBCNews. I’m proud that @RealTalkRJ continues to be part of the national conversation around Alberta politics, public sentiment, and where this country goes next. Thanks for having me, Ian. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #RealTalkRJ

    I got fired on Friday. A few thoughts...

    I’m declaring a personal moratorium on convoy tweets. The delusion I see from folks trying to portray this clown car parade as some sort of Million Man March is astounding. If you don’t get the grift by now, a shot of common sense ain’t gonna save ya. Thoughts & prayers, Ottawa.

    If I were to publicly organize a drunk driving convoy with a couple weeks advance notice, where 2000 people would get bombed and hit the highway (endangering themselves and others), do you think the @RCMPAlberta might do something about it? What an absolute disgrace. #RodeoClowns

    You got me fired from my radio show, Premier, for not bowing to increasingly aggressive right-wing conservatives who are intolerant of viewpoint diversity. You have zero credibility on this matter. 📻 #RealTalkRJ
    .@jamiljivani is a brilliant black Canadian. A Yale Law grad, best-selling author with an amazing life story. But he was fired from his radio show for not bowing to the increasingly aggressive woke-left bias of those in corporate media who are intolerant of viewpoint diversity.

    If I showed up at a listener’s home to confront them for any reason, I’d be fired immediately, if not charged. This is insane behaviour, and a gross lack of judgement. Albertans of all political allegiances must demand @shandro’s resignation, or @jkenney must fire him. #ableg

    Fantastic to see @AmarjeetSohiYEG & @JyotiGondek declared winners in #yeg and #yyc mayoral races early in the evening. Albertans have sent a clear message to the provincial govt (and the rest of the country) about our priorities and so much more. (Plus, we don’t have to move!) 🍾

    Albertans don’t trust you, @jkenney. Not with our finances, not with our pensions, not with our curriculum, not with our 911 dispatch, not with our doctors and nurses, not with our car insurance, and *sure as hell* not with our air, land, water, and wild species. #ableg #cdnpoli
    Alberta’s government is committed to developing coal responsibly under strict regulatory standards and processes that protect our air, land, water and wild species from harm. Find out all the facts on coal and share your views at CoalHardFacts.ca.

    You know this just grinds Trump’s gears. 🏆
    You can’t take our country — and you can’t take our game.

    “NDP drug sites” is language I expect from anonymous trolls, not the Premier of Alberta. Take the politics out of this if you can, @jkenney. Supervised Consumption Services save the lives of hundreds of Albertans that deserve more of your respect. #ableg
    More and more data confirms that the NDP drug sites have hit local communities with an increase in crime and anti-social behaviour. We can’t ignore the social and economic impact. lethbridgenewsnow.com/2020/01/20/stu…

    If your first instinct, upon hearing Canada will assist Cdn families w/ funeral/travel costs up to $25k/victim, is to politicize a tragic circumstance and pile on the Prime Minister, you need to take a time out. This is a compassionate society looking after its own. #FlightPS752
    @ryanjespersen 100% agree with you. Thank you for saying what absolutely needs to be said. Canada is compassionate - it is what sets us apart from many governments around the world. It’s why people from around the world want to come here.

    In spite of an absentee premier, health minister, and CMOH, true leaders emerge. It’s ridiculous this initiative is needed in the first place, but a huge shout out to the health professionals going above and beyond (yet again). #COVID19AB #ableg #ABhealth
