🇨🇦 🚨 ALBERTA FAILS TO MEASURE STUDENT ACCESS 🚨 🇨🇦

The promise is education for all.

But the Auditor General finds the province is running blind, unable to prove if barriers for rural and disabled students are actually breaking down.

New details continue to emerge as to the extent of UCP corruption. The carefully constrained Wyant Report left more questions than answers. Albertans need & deserve a full public inquiry into CorruptCare.

What an excellent opinion piece on how UCP dismantling public healthcare has long term impacts on children who don’t receive necessary services. UCP absolutely failing in their fiduciary duty to Albertans, and getting away with it as they fail Albertans 😡 #ableg
Take a read of what is happening to Access for our children in AB:

"Families are being asked to pay twice. Once through taxes, and again through out-of-pocket fees, premiums, and the brutal math of what they can and cannot afford."

Alberta isn’t fixing healthcare. It’s abandoning it.

Measles cases in Alberta hit a high of nearly 2,500 cases, the highest in Canada. We have learned that the minister was urged to update reporting standards months ago. That advice was ignored. I asked the Minister why.

This is compelling. The UCP is manipulating procedural rules in the Legislature to shut down legitimate inquiries. This time it was about settlement expenses in the health area. Next time it could be about settlement expenses in relation to coal.

This UCP government continues to find all manner of ways to limit debate. Today they just simply shut it down before it could even begin. It's a new low, even for them.

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.
Smith doubled down on her anti court rhetoric today...

She even seemed to suggest that federally appointed judges couldn't render impartial rulings and that she believed her interpretation should always be above theirs.
