I love how the #UCP are reaping the benefits of their own legislation. 2025 has effectively been a rollercoaster of abject bullshit, but these recalls bring glimmers of joy to our dystopian present. #ABLeg #DanielleSmith #ABPoli #CanadaSky #CdnPoli #Canada #ElbowsUp

"As for Ms. Smith, the deal offers a way out of the trap in which she is now caught, as the darling of a separatist movement that is widely rejected in the province. Those boos? I’m guessing they were music to her ears."

The Canada-Alberta deal is good policy, and probably good politics, too
Neither Mark Carney nor Danielle Smith got snookered – in fact, both appear to have savvily bet the middle against the extremes

How would an MLA know which constituents vote in a provincial elections? This information is privileged only to Elections Alberta.
Also, any elector can initiate a recall, irrelevant of whether they vote. UCP wrote this law.

I’m sick of watching politicians make life-affecting decisions -

that go against actual evidence backed by data collected by real experts in the field.

Alberta's government is engaged in something I can only describe as psychopathic politics.
What else do you call it when a government so set on pushing ahead with policies that WILL cause more trans youth to try to leave us?
When they'll trample on the charter to hurt these kids?
It's disturbing:

Alberta has the 9th largest gas reserves in the world.
And the 1st dumbest government in the world.
You can't buy a combined cycle turbine (necessary for building a gas plant) until 2031.
Global demand for NG seems to have outpaced the UCP's governin' abilities.
