Hey Grassroots Alberta,
Is it time for an All Hands Call?
I think that it’s time to start recognizing the impact we have inside of the multiples of conservative minded folk inside of the province, uniting under separate banners all working towards the same directional goals. Taking the spirit of our communities, standing on our own independent soapboxes, shouting from rooftops, hammering away on social media platforms…and uniting.
Over the last few weeks, we have seen some shifting with Premier Smith, where through our voices we have been able to force some shifts in policies, speed up some timelines - namely on reduction of taxes - and have gotten a lot more response to our specific concerns a lot quicker.

Some of these things I still miss
I grew up without safe spaces.
I grew up without trigger warnings.
I drank water from the hose.
I ate peanuts in class.
None of us wore a helmet.
Kids got hurt. We fell down. And we signed a lot of casts.
We couldn’t pause TV. We’d call out “It’s on!” as soon as the commercials started to end (for those who had left the room). And we watched our favourite shows as a family.
There was no next day delivery.
There was no bundle this with that.
There was no internet. Skip the Dishes didn’t exist.
Fast food was not the norm. It was easier to eat healthy. There were home phones. There was VH.........
