Name ONE THING the UCP has done that will improve the lives of Albertans.

The UCP believes Bill 14 court-proofs any referendum on separatism.
Who's going to tell them that the federal Parliament has the ultimate say over the validity of a referendum question (see Secession Reference)?
And that the federal government will likely refer their question to the courts?

Whether it's Tylenol causing autism or puberty blockers leading to permanent sterilization, populist leaders like Trump and Smith have zero qualms about spreading medical disinformation.
