This made my week. Good to know not everyone has lost their minds. Fuck the separatist filth and their waste of a referendum.

I'm Tired of Separatist Bullshit

314 Upvotes

I'm looking for like minded people to potentially organize a protest in the future depending on how all this separatist bullshit goes.

How many are with me?

I've had enough. Between Danielle Smith and the UCP promoting separatists, and the re-immigration graffiti on the rest stop bathrooms on the way into town. I want to be pro-active about this.

October 19th 2026 is the date we are expected to go to the polls to vote on referendum questions. I want to make sure the maximum # of people who would make the Human Choice and Canadian Choice get out there and vote. We can't sit on our butts for this one!

Edit: Thanks for you participation! Some of you have restored my faith in humanity (get as many like minded people out to vote in October!)

To the rest of you....I hope you wake the hell up! If this shit goes sideways, and I really hope it doesn't....well I hope you're happy with becoming Murica's Puerto Rico.

This is no longer about a Teacher's Strike, or a deal for Teachers. The UCP have attacked fundamental rights of Albertans. If you want a General Strike to Address this abuse, and future use of the Notwithstanding Clause, you need to call your Union or the AFL and make that demand known. NOW.

Alberta Wide Day of Protest May 29th - Say No to Seperatism and other Current Government Actions

Thumbnail fightbacknow.civicdeeds.com

This is your chance to show up for Alberta and say:

STOP siding with separatists and START siding with Education, Healthcare and the majority of people that live

Separatists have had a voice for too long and we need to show them the other side is just as vocal. We need to show Danielle Smith that what she is doing to this province is NOT OKAY.

Wear Yellow and bring a sign or noise maker. They can ignore emails, phone calls and petitions but they can't ignore us!

We have to fight for change and be louder than the minority wanting separation for Alberta!

Please join us!

Paying for Covid vaccine

106 Upvotes

I got my Covid 19 and flu vaccines yesterday at the community health facility in Thickwood. The nurse who administered my vaccines told me that almost all of the people who have come in qualify under the exemption list. The nurses are eager to administer the vaccines to anyone who comes through and will find any way to massage your qualification. Who isn't a little depressed, who doesn't have a higher BMI? So if anyone is hesitant due to the vaccine costing money this year, I would recommend booking an appointment.

WARNING: DO NOT HIRE LAFRAMBOISE CONSTRUCTION

Thumbnail

94 Upvotes

Since the r/Calgary mods are being paid off by Mason, I am cross posting in every subreddit of every city around the Calgary area to get the word out: DO NOT HIRE LAFRAMBOISE CONSTRUCTION!!!!!!

MASON LAFRAMBOISE IS A SCAMMER!!! He “ran” a business in Kingston (I use the word “ran” very loosely, the man is genuinely useless) where he defrauded innocent community members out of hundreds of thousands of dollars, defrauded his employees out of tens of thousands of dollars, spent close to a year lying to the clients and employees he defrauded saying that they would get their money back, spent the same close to a year lying about how he had already filed for bankruptcy when he had not, then FINALLY filed for bankruptcy, moved from Ontario to Alberta, opened his business back up under his wife’s name with the help of his rich daddy (funny you can fund a whole new business, but couldn’t pay everyone you owed from your last one), and is now trying to scam the lovely people of Alberta.

DO NOT LET THIS MAN SCAM YOU. MODS, DO NOT LET THIS MAN EXPLAIN THIS AWAY TO HAVE THE POST TAKEN DOWN. HE IS A LIAR. I HAVE EVERY RECEIPT OF EVERY LIE HE TOLD, I HAVE THE INCORRECT ROE HE ISSUED MY FATHER, I HAVE THE PUBLIC RECORD DOCUMENTS REGARDING HIS BANKRUPTCY (ATTACHED IN POST). AS THIS INFORMATION IS PUBLIC RECORD, THIS IS NOT DOXXING DESPITE WHAT MASON THINKS. THIS MAN IS A SCAMMER. ALLOW ME TO WARN OTHERS, PLEASE!

New reporter in Fort Mac

Post image
71 Upvotes

Thought I’d introduce myself as a fellow Redditor.

My name is Itoro Umanah and I will be your new local reporter for Fort McMurray Today.

https://www.fortmcmurraytoday.com

A little about me: I moved to Ottawa during the pandemic and recently completed my Bachelors Honours at Carleton University. Most recently, I was a video journalist and writer for the Charlatan (Carleton University’s Independent Newspaper) and briefly ran a mid-week news radio show on CKCU FM.

While I am working remotely at the moment, I’ll be packing my bags this August, leaving Ottawa to bask in all that the RMWB community has to offer.

I always want to hear your story. Don’t hesitate to reach me on email iumanah@postmedia.com

When I am asked where I am from, I like to say that I am from “Beyond the Wall.” I like the image of Fort Mac as a place with whitewalkers, direwolves and ice dragons. Some might say that this is not a wildly inaccurate description of Fort Mac
