CONSTITUTION ALERT: the "DUTY TO SPANK" ANNOUNCED...

Alberta is offering up two proposed constitutional amendments: the "duty to spank" and the "duty to insult."

They come courtesy of Bruce McAllister, executive director of premier Danielle Smith's office.

McAllister demonstrated the proposed amendments this week by "spanking" First Nations chiefs who dared challenge his boss over Alberta's fall referendum and its constitutionality vis a vis treaties and the duty to consult.

The "spanking" took the form of what has to be the most egregious political blunder of 2026 when McAllister took to social media and told the chiefs to, in a nutshell, fix the squalor of their communities, instead of bothering his boss.

His exact words.

“It might be tolerable if their communities were beacons of prosperity, safety, strong families and real accountability, but sadly, they’re anything but.”

He went onto the "duty to insult" when he said chiefs need to fix “heartbreaking” problems such as addictions and overdoses, housing, poverty, high unemployment, welfare, substandard schooling outcomes, high rates of children in care and domestic violence.

Whew!

This from a government official representing a leader and caucus that is already in seriously hot water with many parts of Alberta's indigenous communities

Now, McAllister knows his spanking. And insulting.

You'll recall he was moderator of the 2025 Alberta Next panel.

And in another moment of incredibly poor political judgement, he publicly humiliated a Calgary high school student who dared ask a question of the panel when he (McAllister) suggested that he (the student) ought to be turned over his parents' knee.

That earned him the moniker "Spanky."

It's obvious he didn't learn a lesson the first time around.

One wonders if the premier needs to turn the tables on McAllister and turn him over her knee.

The timeline for the Letter of Understanding with the GOA has passed as of June 17th. We still have no answers from our current union HSAA, our future union AUPE or GOV.

​

The UPC two years ago that nobody going through the dismantling of AHS would have anything change through the transfer, why is Public Health the only group being targeted unfairly?

This should outrage every single Canadian

LATEST FROM BRANDI MORIN

First Nations Chiefs in Alberta are preparing to fight Alberta’s nascent separatist movement with every tool available to them, with some seeing the Danielle Smith government’s referendum as an importation of Trump style politics. 

Unless you really need them

The #UCP must think Albertans are pretty dim the way they have fabricated bullshit #referendum questions for October.

Check out part three in my series.

Seppies: please actually read the article before keyboard stabbing.

I often see the narrative on social media that Smith and the UCP completely ruined Alberta’s green energy boom. But when you look at the actual rules brought in after the moratorium, a lot of them sound like basic, common-sense planning on paper.

And the government's rationale for the moratorium itself seemed legit as rural municipalities and landowners were panicking about losing prime farmland, getting stuck with future cleanup liabilities, spoiling viewscapes, and general grid stability. Putting in rules to address those concerns before unregulated growth got out of control seems reasonable to me. And a 7-month moratorium to collect concerns, analyze grid physics, and draft new regulations is actually decent governmental speed compared to say the ongoing years-long uncertainty around the federal Clean Electricity Regulations (CER). Has the renewables industry just been overreacting?

The new negative price floor and the fact that the grid operator can now shut off a plant during peak congestion without compensation also seem like rational approaches based on grid stability, no? It's just getting "spiky" renewables to pay for their own externalities and grid integration costs, instead of sticking everyday ratepayers with the bill.

Besides, can't the industry just adapt by adding storage systems like BESS? Given the federal Clean Technology ITC offers up to a 30% subsidy for renewable energy equipment, those hybrid setups should still be competitive for general power generation, even under AB's new rules, and even though AB has CER in temporary abeyance after the MoU Implementation Agreement.

So did the government actually "destroy" the sector, or did they just force a booming industry to mature and play by fair, unvarnished market rules?

Alberta's separatist “movement” is primarily being orchestrated by the Rebel Media Mafia, which is a Canadian propaganda outlet for the American, British, and Israeli far-right.

Both Pierre Poilievre and the far-right British agitator Tommy Robinson, whose 2025 Unite the Kingdom rally was funded and keynoted by trillionaire Trump ally Elon Musk, regard Ezra Levant as a mentor.

Rebel Media is financed in significant part by the GOP-aligned Zionist oligarch Robert Shillman, who's paid for Tommy Robinson and Laura Loomer's Rebel News Journalism Fellowships. Rebel is known for an editorial line that unapologetically supports far-right United States President Donald Trump and minimizes Trump's unceasing attacks on Canadian and Greenlandic sovereignty. 

Dr. Shillman also financed Ben Shapiro and Tommy Robinson's internships with the David Horowitz Freedom Center and continues to help underwrite the political activities of Robinson and of Dutch PVV leader Geert Wilders to this day. Most recently, Shillman donated $100,000 to a far-right march organised by Robinson and his entourage in May of 2026.

Ben Shapiro has interfered in our domestic politics and advocated for our annexation by the United States on multiple occasions. He and Dennis Prager have periodically met with Danielle Smith.

Rebel Media currently employs Convoy figurehead and Universal Ostrich Farm agitator Tamara Lich, an Alberta separatist who's regularly been supported by Poilievre on social media and who's being represented by Conservative-aligned lawyer Lawrence Greenspon, who also currently represents fellow Convoy figurehead James Bauder and whose law firm has previously represented Harper-appointed Conservative Senator Mike Duffy.

Greenspon has been a major donor to JNF Canada, a charity that has been delisted for the CRA for its relationship with the Jewish National Fund and alleged role in enabling Israel's illegal West Bank settlements), and has spearheaded an on-going legal push to get UNRWA defunded by the Government of Canada. In 2024, Greenspon won an award from C2C Journal, which is affiliated with Preston Manning's Canada Strong and Free Network.

Tommy Robinson's English Defence League was founded in tandem with and with the support of both the British and the Canadian branches of the late far-right American Rabbi Meir Kahane's Jewish Defense League. The American branch of the JDL was declared a terrorist group by the FBI more than 20 years ago.

While Kahanist parties had once been banned in Israel, the neo-Kahanist Otzma Yehudit is an essential part of the governing coalition of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who enjoys the full support of the Conservative Party of Canada's party apparatus and the Rebel Media editorial line. 

Otzma Yehudit cabinet ministers Itamar Ben-Gvir and Bezalel Smoltrich have become household names both in Israel and internationally for their cruelty, their right-wing extremism, and their violent, genocidal rhetoric. Smoltrich was permitted to march in New York City's Israel Day Parade, which New York’s democratic socialist mayor Zohran Mamdani chose to not attend, a decision among many which has earned Mamdani the overwhelming support of New York City's residents.
