Where's the premier while MLAs rush through an all-night debate on stripping Albertans of their Charter rights?
An airport lounge, waiting for a flight to Saudi Arabia. She didn't even bother to show up for the vote.

How many people have to die before the city drops “vision zero”? Throwing some asphalt on the side of a 60 km road and making people cross the road without any infrastructure doesn’t feel like vision zero.
