The UCP argues recall is being weaponized against policy, not misconduct.
By that logic, the Gondek recall was also weaponized, as it was explicitly against her policies.
The UCP's reaction to the weaponized recall on Gondek?

Using the voters list as a political weapon against a constituent feels like perfectly reasonable grounds for a recall to me.
Dale Nally's recall petitioner says he doesn't listen to constituents and cites his concerns over the notwithstanding clause.
Nally responds by saying the petitioner doesn't vote and works as a proxy for a group weaponizing the recall act and the petition has no merit.

Once again, folks: any deal between Alberta and Ottawa that requires a) BC's approval, and b) significant support from coastal First Nations is a deal for a pipeline that will never happen.

An Examination of Community Laboratory Services (Contract with DynaLIFE) - Office of the Auditor General, Alberta
Examination Overview In late 2019, Alberta Health Services (AHS) began the process to outsource community laboratory services for the provincial healthcare system. This led to a $4.8 billion contract signed with DynaLIFE Dx (DynaLIFE) in May 2022, with service delivery scheduled to begin in December 2022.

I do think about this headline a lot, about the vast ambition of Team Danielle
It's not quite a year but Jason Markusoff's interview still stands as the most comprehensive template of the UCP's plans for Alberta.
"The premier said that too often, governments hide behind agencies and wipe their hands of policymaking and execution. She wants more of a hand in matters."
Timely.
