🔥 EPISODE 15 — ANOTHER QUESTION FOR MARKAZ-UL-ISLAM FORT McMURRAY

Was this the first time Markaz-Ul-Islam Fort McMurray cancelled or disrupted an event involving Zulkifl Mujahid?

Zulkifl Mujahid had organized an event in Fort McMurray, spending thousands of dollars on marketing, promotional materials and booking an event space at Markaz-Ul-Islam.

Then, at the last minute, the event was cancelled.

But here is the bigger question:

Was Zulkifl the only speaker whose event faced this kind of treatment?

According to the material being discussed in this episode, other speakers Bob Blayone and Pastor Artur Pawlowski were also critical of Danielle Smith and her government.

So we have questions:

👉 Why were these events cancelled or stopped?
👉 Why were speakers who criticized the Alberta government facing barriers?
👉 Was there a consistent policy, or were certain voices being treated differently?
👉 Who made the decisions?
👉 And why?

This is bigger than one event.

If a community organization serves the public and operates as a charitable/non-profit organization, transparency matters.

And for Zulkifl Mujahid, this wasn’t the first time he felt betrayed by Markaz-Ul-Islam.

“Backstabbed once? Maybe. Repeatedly? The public deserves answers.”

EPISODE 15 — THE QUESTIONS CONTINUE.

🇨🇦 SEPARATISM IS CREATING DIVISIONS INSIDE THE UCP

A growing internal battle is emerging within Danielle Smith’s UCP over Alberta separatism.

In Sherwood Park, a candidate with a strong history in the Alberta independence movement is challenging for the UCP nomination.

In Grande Prairie, another UCP nomination challenger has been linked to the separatist movement and the Stay Free Alberta petition.

Meanwhile, another UCP MLA is facing a nomination challenge in Grande Prairie–Wapiti.

These contests raise an important question:

Is separatism becoming a bigger force inside the UCP?

Albertans deserve transparency about where their political parties are heading and whether the government is listening to the majority of Albertans who want Alberta to remain part of Canada.

🇨🇦 Alberta’s future should be decided by Albertans, not by the loudest voices in the room.

🚨 4 HOURS WAITING — AND STILL NO LICENCE RENEWAL?

Albertans are being left frustrated after spending hours waiting at registry offices, only to be told they cannot renew their driver’s licence because it is not yet close enough to expiry.

This is what happens when a government rolls out a major system change without properly preparing Albertans, registry agents and the public.

Danielle Smith’s UCP government promised “red tape reduction.” Instead, Albertans are reporting long lines, confusion, delays and frustration.

The new Alberta licence system was introduced on July 2, combining the driver’s licence with health and citizenship information. The government said registries were ready for the change, but Albertans are now paying the price for a rollout that many believe was poorly managed.

Four hours in line should never be the price of dealing with your own government.

Albertans deserve better service, better communication and a government that actually prepares before making major changes.

Danielle Smith and the UCP need to fix this.

🇨🇦 A WARM ALBERTA WELCOME FOR THOMAS!

Hundreds of Canadians came together today to welcome Thomas, former Deputy Premier of Alberta, during his visit to Fort McMurray.

It was wonderful to see community members, volunteers, and supporters come together with former UCP Leader Zulkifl Mujahid to celebrate Canadian unity and our shared future.

From Fort McMurray to communities across Alberta, the message is clear: we are stronger when we stand together. 🇨🇦❤️

Together for a stronger Alberta.

🗣️ Free Speech

Danielle Smith: “Free Speech, Full Stop.”

But critics are questioning whether the UCP government’s actions actually match those words.

Albertans deserve consistent principles, not selective free speech.

Is Alberta Protecting Its Future?

Growing criticism is being directed at the UCP government over its approach to environmental protection and conservation.

Alberta has incredible land, wildlife and natural resources.

Protecting them shouldn’t be a partisan issue.

Alberta separation referendum “gamble of a lifetime”

A recent Wall Street Journal report describes Smith’s push toward an October 19 referendum as a high-stakes political gamble, arguing that it could threaten national unity and investor confidence. It also notes that critics see her approach as helping fuel the separatist movement even though Smith says she supports Alberta remaining in Canada.

🚨 ELECTION FACTS VS. FALSE STATEMENTS — ALBERTA

There is a lot of misinformation circulating online about citizen initiatives, recall campaigns and Elections Alberta.

📢 Elections Alberta has now addressed some of the most common claims.

According to Elections Alberta:

❌ “Elections Alberta is not enforcing the rules.”
✅ Elections Alberta says citizen initiative and recall campaigns have been conducted according to the legislation in force at the time.

❌ “People committed fraud when signing petitions.”
✅ Elections Alberta says its verification process specifically looks for fraud — and no fraud has been detected during any completed petition verification process.

❌ “Different petitions use different counting processes.”
✅ Elections Alberta says validation, counting and verification processes are consistently applied according to the legislation.

❌ “Elections Alberta sends canvassers to your door.”
✅ Elections Alberta says its staff do not participate in canvassing or events supporting or opposing campaigns.

❌ “Canvassers don’t need identification.”
✅ Petition canvassers are registered through Elections Alberta and approved canvasser ID is issued.

❌ “Elections Alberta writes the electoral laws.”
✅ Elections Alberta says the Government of Alberta establishes electoral legislation. Elections Alberta administers the laws — it does not write them.

🔎 The bottom line:

People can disagree with Alberta’s electoral laws, petition rules or government decisions.

But let’s separate FACTS from POLITICAL CLAIMS.

If you have questions about an electoral event or Elections Alberta’s processes, the organization says contacting its team directly is the best way to get answers.
