Why am I (We) so mad about Kenney and the UCP? My friends and family ask me this all the time. Reflection: its not just the atrocious cuts and wars on our health (among too many other things to list), its much more than that.
Long thread, sorry!

If private schools are allowed to exist, then they should be paid for 100% by the people who want to send their kids there. They should not be funded by a single cent of public money.

Maybe it's just me, but I prefer a government who's leader didn't cheat his way into power,a govt who doesn't have a horse poacher and human rights tribunal loser as a minister, a government who didn't celebrate rolling back LGBQT2 rights by jumping gleefully in a fountain

An apology to non-Alberta Canadians:
I'm sorry. I'm sorry Alberta is the trashy neighbor in the confederacy. I'm sorry we have a growing population who are selfish beyond belief & don't care about anyone outside Alberta. I'm really sorry we unleashed Smith on the country

The UCP with Kenney was shit. The UCP without Kenney.. is still shit.
They are corrupted to the core. Him leaving doesn't change the fact they are negligent, inept, and a stain on this province.

I'm Canadian first, Albertan second.
I refuse an APP. I reject the idea to steal over half of the CPP for AB.
Other Canadians, please know that not all Albertans are dillusional like Smith & her ignorant supporters. It's all our money, we take care of eachother.

- if things are turning on Kenney as bad as it appears with the fracturing of the 'united' party, I'm guessing we'll see some leaked or provided information on the UCP election fraud scandal before too long. It's going to get nasty.
I really hope a reporter asks Smith a question by addressing her as 'Premiere Marlaina'.. just to see how Smith reacts to her choice being ignored, and then has to justify why it's okay for her but not for vulnerable Alberta youth
#ableg
Watch the hypocrisy.. it's already out there. The same chuds claiming Trudeau is a dictator (in a minority govt lol) will have ZERO issues with Smith pushing ACTUAL tyrannny/dictatorial authority.

I really thought when we had Kenney that Alberta had hit rock bottom, but Smith has opened up a new, deep, cavernous pit of hate/rhetoric/disdain/ideology and plans to take us even further down.

just don't feel 'Canadian'. Its like they are this transplanted external force that is against everything I was taught to be, not just by my parents, or school, or friends, but as we are SUPPOSED to be as Canadians.
A govt that doesn't villify doctors/nurses/public when they are concerned about a deadly wave of a virus that is being allowed to sweep through the population when kids aren't even vaccinated, a govt that doesn't want to rip the tops off mountains for foreign profit
While disregarding major environmental concerns, a govt that doesn't want its own police force because their leader is under investigation, a govt that doesn't fire the election investigator because their leader is a fraud, a govt that didn't try to steal a pension fund to use
