The Breakdown AB

Nenshi - Didn't you learn anything from that time you were found to have broken the law trying to interfere in the legal process?

Dani - I control the police now!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

So uh...

Remember yesterday when the NDP revealed yet another sus real estate deal involving Mraiche?

Today they brought it up again, and they brought up Marshall Smith too...

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Reporter - Is it becoming common practice to use Legislative powers to override the courts?

Amery -Not common practice. We just do it all the time now when we want our way or we want to limit free speech. The courts can still issue rulings. Whatevs.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Reporter - Isn't the UCP all about free speech? How do you justify banning words that political parties can use in their name?

Amery - Look, we're big business now and we intend to keep our monopoly. You'll get one Conservative Party and like it!

Ok..

So...

Multiple referendum questions asking varying versions of the same question are allowed and we can't tell if Alberta's Justice Minister who just made himself immune from law society consequences knows what "piggybacking" means.

This day...

Reporter - If you used the notwithstanding clause top avoid increasing funding, aren't you admitting education is underfunded?

Nicolaides - Whoawhoawhoa, I only brought 1 talking point today...uh... we're awesome and the NDP suck! Woooo!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed

Nicolaides doubled down on the reason for using the notwithstanding clause today...

"Look, if we had let someone come in and objectively look at how underfunded education is in Alberta, it could have cost the government BILLIONS!"

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli #abed

Nicolaides when asked about the leaked email from UCP Martin Long stating that part of the reasons for invoking the notwithstanding clause was financial...

Well yeah, it's super about the money but also we don't want to be accountable to anyone who isn't elected.

Adding Alberta health-care numbers to licences increases fraud risk: privacy watchdog | Globalnews.ca Alberta's information and privacy commissioner is concerned the Alberta government's plan to add health-care numbers to driver's licences would increase the risk of fraud.

Pancholi - Cool you're cancelling the contracts, but Marshall Smith's fingerprints are all over so much of this, including his pressuring to have the new contracts signed!

Lagrange - What... what day is this? Where was I? Why won't people talk to me?

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Nenshi - So are you messing with recall or what's the deal?

Smith - Yeah, we're making some changes on Thursday, but what I really want to talk about is how much the NDP hurt the coal companies.

For real. That was her pivot.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Nenshi - So why were you cool with hiring 5 relatives of Mraiche (and Amery)... Didn't that raise any concerns for you?

Smith - I met with Mr Mraiche and I listened to him!

(That's kinda the concern tho)

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

Smith today - Sam Mraiche never wanted to talk about anything to do with business with me, he only wanted to talk about racism, encampments and business!

For real, watch the clip.

Danielle Smith punts questions on health CEO’s election night appearance Alberta NDP uses revelations to reiterate calls for public inquiry into controversy

Anyways...

Can only imagine how nerve wracking is must be to be Marshall or Rob tonight!

Here's the link to the new story!

www.theglobeandmail.com/canada/alber...

In another almost certainly unrelated turn of events...

It was Marshall Smith who lived in a luxury home owned by Sam Mraiche's sister!

/3

Huh.

Marshall's name came up in the other Globe story as being the source of the tickets offered to the chief of staff of Vancouvers mayor on behalf of Mraiche...

That's a wild coincidence!

No pictures of Rob in any of the game pictures yet.

/2

WOW!

Danielle Smith looks like she's getting ready to throw someone under the bus!

When the Globe asked how Sam Mraiche ended up in an elite advisors suite on election night, she punted it to her advisors...

Among them Rob Anderson & Marshall Smith

Details of Premier’s ties to businessman underscore need for public probe, Alberta NDP says Leader Naheed Nenshi says The Globe’s investigation into links between Sam Mraiche and Danielle Smith’s government worthy of further examination

“When you are waiting for the results to come in, especially in a close race like it was in 2023, you are surrounded only by [your] absolute closest advisers,” Mr. Nenshi said”

And Mraiche was with Smith’s elite.

WOW!

In March, Danielle Smith justified not calling for a public inquiry in part because her new right hand man...

(former #YEG Police Chief, Dale Mcfee)

had looked into the corrupt care scandal

The same one who the Globe showed was partying with Sam Mraiche!

#abpoli #ableg

Here's what the Judge himself said he was allowed to investigate...

You would think that Lagrange would have been made aware of the investigation that was going on in her own ministry...

Did Adriana Lagrange lie to cover up connections with the "Corrupt Care" scandal and recovery Alberta?

Because back in March she was asked if Judge Wyants report would look into those concerns, and she said he would.

But he said he wasn't allowed to...

Posting this from his own account is a fascinating choice…
