Here's a cabinet minister form the UCP caucus. He's not confused. Unlike a certain, other minister who will go nameless...
Pro-tip for Albertan cabinet ministers: you can in fact just say what Minister Turton said earlier this spring.

And we are voting for Alberta to be that guiding light for Canada.

Councillor Harrison Clark, who represents Ward 9 on Calgary's city council, shared a five minute clip this week about the referendum.

Suspended on Threads. Help?
Hi /r/ThreadsApp,
As a person who has spent hundreds of thousands in ad dollars on Meta platforms, this is a uniquely horrible experience.
My advocacy account remains disabled. I can attest: I am not inauthentic, nor am I fake.
I've appealed, written a letter and sent a DM. I have followed up with Meta Business Services.
It's been a month.
Threads won't even let me download the account information (it's blocked).

Does anyone know somebody at Threads? Has anyone ever had an account restored after being incorrectly flagged and disabled by Thread's algorithm?
