The UCP works for the O&G industry. Not for Albertans. Sonya Savage, former lobbyist. Daniel Smith... lobbyist. Jason Kenney, openly admitted he gambled over $1B of Albertans money on what was essentially a coin flip.

Danielle Smith is buying support from Calgary's oil millionaires just like she did from MLAs with her increase of their salaries. They're cheap dates, and all Albertans bear the cost. Small government libertarians, hey...

Calgary councillor criticized for suggesting parental leave would be ‘betrayal’ of constituents -...

Council members voted 13-1 to ask city staff to draft a parental leave policy for councillors, with the one vote against being cast by Jeromy Farkas.

The UCP have two priorities for governing: keeping their TBA fringe happy and keeping oil and gas companies happy. One will cost lives and the other will cost Albertans hundreds of millions of dollars.

Gondek turns to Farkas. She says he’s telling voters the city is selling parks and defunding police: “these are lies, you need to stop telling them.” Applause from auditorium crowd.

Let's be frank for a minute here... if the UCP are still in power next year then no number of think pieces, surveys, presentations etc. etc. will change the narrative. The world will move on and Alberta will be left behind. No studies and reports will alter this.

Can this dude run comms. for all Conservative parties? Asking for progressives everywhere. Opposition to affordable childcare is driven by institutional conservative misogyny and men's unwillingness to lose their place on the social hierarchy. End of story.

Alberta has some significant challenges to overcome. Imagine if we had a ruling party that was focused on those challenges and wasn't the political equivalent of a hunger games style soap opera.

It’s been quite a week for UCP Ministers. Laying off 1% of Alberta’s workforce. Cancelling environmental reporting. Not so friendly house visits. Selling off public land to friends. Putting vulnerable Albertans on floors in convention centres. Which one is the worst? #AbLeg
