Absolutely disgusting!

Any politician who crosses the floor to join another party is the worst, most untrusting, political opportunist that can't be trusted and should be banned from holding public office permanently!

What a hack!

Rick Bell has upped himself yet again.

His headline claims there is no jail for CP.

There is absolutely still jail, up to a max of 14 years (and the max should be higher).

Rick used be be about speaking truth to power.

Now he’s just a mouthpiece FOR power.

Who knew that the secret to making covid shots popular in Alberta was the UCP govt forbidding Albertans from getting them. Good to know. #ableg #abpoli

Here’s what I think: if we don’t take a stand now and in the coming weeks, collective bargaining in good faith ends in Alberta.

This is horrific.

Danielle Smith is dismantling the public healthcare system, and this is the result.

When is enough enough, Alberta? I mean come on. No amount of devout party loyalty is worth screwing over kids with cancer.
