Abramovich has not been sanctioned by Canada. Reports today indicate he says he's trying to help negotiate peace. However, Alexei Navalny's (opposition leader/Putin opposer) allies say Abramovich should be a top target for sanctions to maximize pain for Putin.

One Alberta MLA says no leadership confidence vote happened, meeting was about COVID + leadership, says there will be news very soon on a formal party leadership review and they left caucus more united than when they entered the room earlier #ableg #cdnpoli

There's always some poor unsuspecting person who shares a name with an Alberta political figure. Always. It's just a rule of the universe.

Today I got to speak with families from Afghanistan who are settling in Calgary. Nassir told me they were living in hell. When they grabbed the hands of the Canadian soldiers, it felt like heaven. Now they're in Calgary, they're surrounded by angels. #yyc #cdnpoli

Michelle Rempel Garner says she’s voting against a caucus-driven review of O’Toole, because Conservative members should lead that process & party infighting isn’t what she was elected to focus on. #cdnpoli

Chief McFee says he didn't contact Kenney after Madu's call cause he didn't think it was appropriate to. Says Madu didn't ask for discipline for the officer. Says he'll fully cooperate with the investigation if contacted (h/t @MBellefontaine who is monitoring the meeting) #ableg

In a Tuesday meeting with political staff, Kenney told them "I will not let this mainstream conservative party become an agent for extreme, hateful, intolerant, bigoted, and crazy views ... The lunatics are trying to take over the asylum. And I'm not going to let them."

The next step in the lawsuit is a final response from Kimmel, then it moves into discovery where witnesses can be called. Kimmel's lawyer confirmed to me they intend to subpoena Premier Jason Kenney. #ableg #cdnpoli

Over the last two weeks, we've asked where every single MLA in Alberta spent the holidays. It's taken a lot of leg and team work. Here's what we learned. #ableg

Alberta had asked the feds to amend the criminal code after attacks on women in the prov. Min. Blair and Lametti said no, adding "We need to address complex issues such as mental health and addictions ... such as prevention, and when appropriate, enforcement."

NEW: Premier Jason Kenney will face a leadership review in the spring of 2022 at a UCP annual general meeting, rather than in the fall. The party confirms it is working to finalize dates and a venue after Kenney called the UCP president this afternoon after caucus #cdnpoli #ableg
