The UCP spent $7.5M trying to convince Albertans to hand over their pensions.
Albertans responded with a province-wide “lol no.”

The most expensive failed sales pitch in Alberta history.

The Alberta government is retroactively trying to reframe the purpose of the Recall legislation.

They are now saying that it was meant to deal with “breaches of trust, serious misconduct, or a sustained failure to represent constituents, not political disagreements.”

Nope.

Kind of wild that Dani and the UCP would rather cry victim with regards to recalls and ongoing investigations instead of doing the sane thing a government that narrowly won an election should do: Shut the fuck up.

Let's see how it plays out.

These fucking dirtbags sure like the idea of recalls when they're envisioning NDP members losing their seats but when the dirty end of that stick is aimed at them, they call it "undemocratic".
Recall every one of these fucking losers

UCP MLA under a recall cloud has issued a statement…

- Blaming teachers for her recall
- defending the use of the notwithstanding clause as being “necessary” (it wasn’t)
- suggesting that the organizer is abusing his position.

Of course it was Benita Pedersen.

The same Benita who harassed nurses outside of hospitals during the pandemic.

Of course it was.

Proud to unveil the UCP official new logo, created by Bruce 'Spanky' McAllister.

This new logo represents the very sentiment my UCP has towards Alberta teachers, patients, AISH recipients, public sector unions, and more!

I'm loving how every single MLA being put on a recall petition has officially responded in the same way:

"Your gripe is against the UCP. Don't take it out on me. I just vote how they tell me to..."

LOL!
