The UCP government have been in power for SIX years.
Now, ask yourself:
⬇️ Is your healthcare better?
⬇️ Is your cost of living lower?
⬇️ Is your rent or mortgage more affordable?
⬇️ Is our education system stronger?
What, honestly, is better now than it was six years ago?

This is among the most democratically dangerous things Danielle Smith has said.
She wants to remove all checks and balances on her power and projects herself as the embodiment of "the people."
We have left the realm of liberal democracy in this province.

Another change proposed in the bill is to give Alberta’s justice minister immunity from sanctions from the Law Society of Alberta, which regulates lawyers, for any actions they perform as part of their “official duties” — a term not defined in the legislature.

Well we knew this was coming. Recall can’t happen fast enough.
Politics has no place in the healthcare decisions of patients and doctors. This is another UCP attack on healthcare providers and women.
UCP calls for a referendum on “late term abortion”
Abortion is health care. It belongs between a patient & their doctor, not on a ballot & not in the UCP’s talking points.
