One way to certainly look at it is we no longer have Sharp, Terry Wrong AND Sean Chu on council & that's a lot of utter garbage voting gone.

That's fine. It will be interesting to see what unions decide to do as a collective. I'm not sure the UCP is prepared for what could come.

Cool - which union do you belong to? I hadn't heard that any had decided to move this direction yet

And what about you? What are your plans?

It turns out, giving everyone free vaccines would save Alberta the most money. But restricting vaccines was never about saving money, was it Premier Smith? #abpoli #ableg #yyc #yeg #yql #abhealth #cdnpoli

Free vaccines cheaper than dealing with ramifications of low vaccination rate: Alberta Medical Association

If saving money is the Alberta government’s priority, the most cost-effective route is distributing the COVID-19 vaccine widely and freely – not charging $100 for it, says the Alberta Medical Association.

Smith / #UCP: We can't afford another $2B over 4yrs.

Public - that's $500M / yr.

Smith / #UCP - So?

Public - You put $500M / yr into PRIVATE schools.

Smith/ #UCP - were hoping you wouldn't notice that.

We noticed. Put tax dollars into PUBLIC schools.
