The town hall was part of a series travelling the province to engage Albertans about the changes the UCP government has made to health care. At the event Tuesday, Parks responded to a question about

Poilievre’s office on allegations of pushing and yelling by Scheer and Warkentin: “Chris d’Entremont, who established himself a liar after willfully deceiving his voters, friends, and colleagues...is now spinning more lies after crossing the floor. He will fit in perfectly in the Liberal caucus.”

Anti-NDP legislation not strong enough to protect UCP What did they expect? Honestly; someone needs a time out.

The Recall Act -- the UCP's legislation aimed at removing politicians not "conservative enough" -- might end up biting them in the ass. Admit it: that would be GLORIOUS AF 😅!

Yeah, we did. We ruined it for misogynists and sexual predators and office lotharios and drunks and lazy loafers who had their secretaries and assistants do their actual work.

UCP made corporate donations legal in Alberta again. Then, businesses gave them $471K in first period. | CBC Accessibility Injury lawyers opened their wallets to support the United Conservative Party, while their fight against auto insurance reforms continues.

Corporate and union donations are back in Alberta politics. And as @markusoff.bsky.social found out, one party benefited from that change much more in the last quarter. #AbLeg

Thomas Lukaszuk and Forever Canadian have issued a statement on the UCP’s refusal to provide the funding that Elections Alberta says they need to properly execute on the recalls and referendums.

You've got to wonder how many times per day @carrietait.bsky.social has to physically & audibly scream into the void while she writes about the current Alberta government, because there seems to be no action Premier Smith won't take at this point to dodge findings on the healthcare scandal.

Reporters should be asking Dr. Diamond (ACA CEO) and Minister Jones to answer for these increasing cases of worsening access to care...

They'll both try to defer back to "AHS"... but the solutions are in workforce/capacity/and integrated load levelling... which AHS can't do

"AHS said it understands the delays can cause additional stress and it apologized for any inconvenience caused to the patients and their families."

AHS no longer has ANY control over their conditions - they just run hospitals
Capacity and workforce are fully on ACA and Govt

Photo of the poster with the words Sign The Petition Here!. We used it today for the Alberta Funds Public Schools petition question asking, "Should the Government of Alberta end its current practice of allocating public funds to accredited independent (private) schools?" The sign has a white background. The letters for "Alberta Funds Public Schools" are red. The question letters are black.

Photo of the group of people gathered to protest the policies of Daniel Smith and the UCP in regard to, well everything really. My wife is in the foreground holding the poster described earlier also other signs reading: Stop Underfunding Public Education; Notwithstanding Clause UCP Abuse of Power; Honk For Teachers and Democracy, etc.

My wife and I joined protesters today at Justin Wrights MLA office to get signatures for the Alberta Funds Public Schools petition. My wife has gathered 50+ signatures. There are over 1400 canvassers province wide and more signing up daily.

UCP fumbling primed Albertans to support the teachers’ strike Danielle Smith left for Saudi Arabia before invoking Notwithstanding Clause

The UCP spent the past year doing things that ensured public opinion was primed to support the striking teachers regardless of the government’s advertising campaigns or talking points.

So...

UCP Minister Rajan Sawhney held an open house in Calgary.

It did not go well for her.

Opinion: If the UCP can take away teachers' rights, no one is safe But Bill 2 does far more than end a strike. It turns fifty-thousand Albertan teachers into second-class citizens.

Priorities, right? Why use the existing sheriff's, peace officers, police, and RCMP when you could buy APC's and play military junta!
