Keeping up with the UCP government's democratic transgressions can be difficult.

But not impossible.

Here’s a running list since Danielle Smith became premier. 🧵👇

Well-rested former starter Eric Lauer ought to be available for #BlueJays for innings 12 through 16.

Let's be clear about what happened today.

Premier Smith introduced a bill to strip Albertans of Charter rights,

denied MLAs the opportunity to debate it and the courts the ability to scrutinize it,

and did all of this from her seat on a jet to Saudi Arabia.
The UCP government has invoked time allocation and on a bill removing Albertans' Charter rights.

And they're using the notwithstanding clause to do it.

Here's why that is a dangerous precedent. And why real conservatives need to stand up against it.

The UCP's Bill 2 skirts the legislature and the courts, leaving it up to the public to push back swiftly

There is only one possible reason that Danielle Smith will not agree to a full, public, 3rd party inquiry.

We know why. She knows we know why.

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

If the teachers go on strike for fair wages, do you know what to do with your kids?

Take them to the public library and have them start reading all the books the UCP government is banning.

As soon as Air Canada knew the strike was real, they made a deal.

In other words, if the government had told Air Canada that they wouldn't force the striking workers back to work, this whole thing would've been avoided.

The government constantly siding with corporations is why this chaos happened.

Albertans have good reason to be angry: their real wages are down 10%, their minimum wage is frozen, their inflation is worst in Canada, their health care's at risk. None of that was caused by the rest of Canada. My take in today's @TorontoStar: www.thestar.com/business/opi.... #cdnecon
