Edmonton fancies itself a dictatorship, no freedom of the press to embarrass them.

Edmonton Transit Service bans journalists on properties without permits

The Edmonton Transit Service (ETS) has mandated media notify the City of Edmonton prior to producing journalism on any of its properties.

“Now I need to go to Edmonton to shoot pictures, video and write stories while on ETS property,” tweeted Western Standard columnist and show host Cory Morgan on Tuesday.

“I f*cking dare Edmonton authorities to try and stop me.”

Outside of various media opportunities, ETS said journalists are required to notify the City of Edmonton prior to reporting on its property for the mutual safety of themselves and transit riders.

“This includes transit centres, LRT stations, stops along the Valley Line Southeast and inside all buses and trains,” it said.

“Doing so helps us ensure media activities will not interfere with our ability to provide safe and effective service to riders.”

If people wish to gain access to ETS properties, they can contact ETS Communications. These requests are monitored during weekday business hours, and 24 hours notice is appreciated when possible.

This ordeal comes after the City of Edmonton said in July vulnerable people can turn to ETS spaces to survive because of few options.

“There are safety challenges and more pressures on social services and mental health resources,” it said.

“There isn't enough affordable housing.”

A few days ago, I had a discussion with a widely respected western businessman, and good friend, about the current independence movement in Alberta and Saskatchewan. I was intrigued by his thoughts about how we might advance the goal of greater western autonomy at this time in our history.

We agreed that, despite the gallant efforts of many, for far too many years, the flame for fairness has been repeatedly ignored and snuffed out, again and again. The harsh reality is, if an insufficient number of westerners don’t take the issue of independence seriously, why should eastern Canadians?

Unsurprisingly my savvy friend raised a couple of points during our conversation that I have been gnawing on since. The first was nothing new, although for at least two reasons it has become more time sensitive.

First is the disastrous state of Canada and the fact that the federal Liberal government continues to chart a ...

Canada Can't Be Fixed. Alberta Needs to Chart Its Own Course
JEFFREY RATH:

Friends, I’ve said it before and I’ll keep saying it. Alberta’s future does not lie within a broken, dysfunctional Canada. It lies in our own hands, building an independent Alberta, run by Albertans, for Albertans.

I had the privilege of addressing a room full of hardworking, freedom-loving Albertans recently. If you missed it, I want you to hear exactly what I told them. The stakes couldn’t be higher, and the time for polite conversations is long gone.

The Truth They Don’t Want You to Hear

For over 100 years, Alberta has been treated like Ottawa’s colony. We’ve been stripped of wealth, muzzled by regulation, and told to sit quietly while Eastern politicians decide our fate. Meanwhile, our resources bankroll Quebec’s surpluses and our families pay the price with higher taxes, unemployment, and lost opportunities.

Ottawa’s latest trick? Universal Basic Income to create a nation of dependent voters. Lower the voting age ...
