We've been all over the province with @pfparks.bsky.social having Urgent Conversations with Albertans about their concerns with our health care. And wherever we go it's the same: folks are increasingly struggling to access the care they need & deserve.

Any one of the abusive, fascist over use of the Notwithstanding Clause, underfunding of Elections Alberta, political games played on the Wyant Investigations, refusal to call a public inquiry on contracting and procurement corruption are all egregious enough to justify recall petitions.

UCP MLA says via email that the decision to use the notwithstanding clause was not just about getting students into classrooms...
The UCP were worried that arbitration would cost them "hundreds of millions, potentially billions".

Yep, "the Frankenparty stitched together by Jason Kenney." That's the reality that's always papered over. It's never been fully united, despite the name. There's a permanent struggle for dominance, with the old Wildrose faction usually in command, and the only glue is fear of the loss of power.
