  • It’s not great.

    The median mortgage payment is over 50% of the median income, which historically should be 30%. Houses are over 60%. But the numbers are getting better than their 2023 records highs.

    Our biggest grocers were fixing bread prices for over a decade and were only given a slap in the wrist. People can ask for a $20 rebate.

    Almost all of our grocery stores are owned by 3 companies (Loblaws, Metro, and Sobeys (made up of former Loblaws employees)). 3 companies own almost all our phone providers, so they gouge prices too.

    You can really see a trend — we seem to concentrate all our industries into 3 or so companies and the competition bureau thinks that’s fine. Historically I think that’s because we were a colony and got too used to being exploited and having our wealth shipped off.






  • I’m so incredibly mad about this.

    Alberta seems to have all the time to whine, pass anti trans laws, and generally try to fuck up the rest of Canada, meanwhile they can’t take care of their own people and healthcare system?

    I hate the notwithstanding clause, and it should be a death sentence for any political party to use in all but the most dire situations. And I mean wartime do or die type situations.

    The fact we’ve normalized and accepted it means the dream of a free Canada or any perception of freedom is dead.

    This is disgusting. And the abuse of power for really no good reason except to harass vulnerable children is gross. If Daniel smith and apparently the whole UCP think they’re smarter than doctors, they should maybe try to fix their healthcare system.

    Trans rights are human rights. You can’t take away trans rights without trampling the others. These people hurt nobody. And their advice from their doctors in their own circumstances trumps every politicians feelings every time.

    Fuck off Alberta you brainwashed shit stain of a province.
