We talked to A.B. Stoddard, columnist at The Bulwark and author of a new piece suggesting a closing strategy for Kamala Harris, about how Democrats can use Trump’s angry, unhinged eruptions to fashion a winning endgame against him.

Gee, what changed since 2018?
"Alberta, which had the highest minimum wage in Canada 6 years ago, is now tied with Saskatchewan for the lowest at $15 an hour.
The province dropped into the tail position on Tues as four others, including Saskatchewan, raised their minimum wages to account for inflation.
Alberta has not raised its minimum wage since 2018."
"The minimum wage for students under 18 is $13/hour as of June 26, 2019." (Which puts AB well below SK.)
Under the UCP, the ownership-class gets richer while the working-class gets poorer, all while the public services relied on by working-class people are gutted and decimated for more private profit for owners. There has never been a more anti-worker government in Alberta. No surprise that they're also strongly anti-Union.

There are great local news outlets, but you do have to seek them out -- and, if you can, support them.

(The Trump administration rolled back over 100 environmental regulations including rules on... clean air and water. Project 2025 slashes protections even further.)
