A private market that will be interested, or capable of, dealing with emergencies? Serious illness? A boutique market is not a substitute for a comprehensive healthcare system.

The Montreal Economic Institute is a far right group and much like the Fraser Institute they can not be trusted to deal with real facts they are highly ideologically based. Danielle Smith quoting them demonstrates you are doing the wrong thing and will fail as always.

Thanks. I wanted to share because I need the world to know that the UCP's decisions are having real affects on average Albertans. Thinking about starting a substack to document the journey.

Based on CofS Anderson, sounds like Smith will not be discussing the budget in her TV address on Thursday, but immigration.

So, we can expect more distraction from her government's overall incompetence & terrible handling of a number of important files, more racist dog whistles, & more outright lies and misinformation. Totally predictable, sadly, for this province. Our Premier is not a leader but an aspiring dictator.

Wait. Did it say “I promise to piss it all away again!” Did I read that wrong?
“The province is projecting a $6.4-billion deficit when the fiscal year ends in March, representing a massive multibillion-dollar swing from an $8.3-billion surplus the year prior.”
Smith & the UCP have robbed Albertans blind. Have you had enough Alberta! Fuck.

They really don't like people saying they've been cancelled or indefinitely delayed
But also, there's no longer any financial commitment

![Finally, changes to these boundaries completely undermine and reduce any consistency or predictability for businesses who are interested in resort development. The promise and commitment for Park and Protected Area boundaries is not only a commitment to Albertans, it also defines strict boundaries and legislated conditions for development. These are some of the most predictable guides for development to follow. This is not the case for the All-Season Resorts Act. The All-Season Resorts Act removes this consistency and reduces certainty for the tourism sector, thus weakening our ability to attract investment in this sector with any guarantees on regulatory frameworks and requirements.
The Ministerial Order that changed these Park boundaries for All-Season Resort Areas must be rescinded immediately to restore confidence in the parks system and trust Albertans have in their government to honour commitments. The All-Season Resort Areas should remain but be confined to previously existing park boundaries.
I look forward to hearing your response in this regard. Albertans and I will be watching closely for you both to remedy this error.
Respectfully,
