This woman is just completely full of shit. Health care, education, and post-secondary education do have oversight. They are called boards, and many members of those boards are placed there by government. There are also government ministries for each of those areas, along with laws.

Smith sees her role as doling out contracts to her friends and then buying them back when they fail. Smith's UCP is the largest government in Alberta's history. Their attempts to privatize have been an abysmal failure, wasting hundreds of millions in public funds. We deserve better.

It strips regulators of tools to stop discriminatory conduct on-the-job, putting a professional’s “right” to offend ahead of our right to safe, respectful care.
