• Opinion: A night waiting in ER shows fallout of Alberta's health, social policies

  27-12-2024 21:50 via edmontonjournal.com
  
  On the night of Dec. 13, my partner and I spent 17 hours in an Edmonton hospital’s emergency department. Here is some of what we witnessed and learned from conversations. Think of this account when your UCP MLA or premier tells you the public health system is not under-resourced. Think of it when they deny that social crises have been downloaded to public hospitals, schools, and libraries because their governments chose to degrade social services and not invest in public housing.

• Temitope Oriola: Chair's exit a chance to reset the Edmonton Police Commission

  27-12-2024 19:47 via edmontonjournal.com
  
  The Edmonton Police Commission recently produced some political pyrotechnics. John McDougall wanted to continue to chair the commission until the end of December 2024, and remain a member until the end of his term in 2026. None of that would be an issue except that he also planned to relocate to Portugal and engage remotely with the oversight process of a half-a-billion-dollar organization in Edmonton. Public criticism was swift and acerbic. Read More

• Opinion: Canada must address injustice of Métis scrip system

  27-12-2024 14:35 via edmontonjournal.com
  
  In Canada’s narrative of reconciliation, one chapter remains painfully incomplete: the story of the Métis Scrip System. Scrip was a sordid tool of dispossession that fractured Métis communities, took our lands, and left generations of Métis people marginalized in our own homeland. Until Canada fully acknowledges and addresses the deep injustices of the Métis scrip system, reconciliation will remain out of reach. Read More

• Friday's letters: Tax policies biased against spirits

  27-12-2024 12:00 via edmontonjournal.com
  
  The federal government’s recent decision to extend GST relief to beer, wine, and refreshment beverages — but not spirits — is another example of how Canada’s antiquated tax policy disadvantages our spirits industry.
