🚨 Got this Alberta UPC propaganda in the mail yesterday. It is mostly anti-immigrant hate-mongering noise. Deeply misleading. Our tax dollars paid for this rage farming? Sum: WTF⁉️ ⚠️ VOTE NO TO THE NINE ⚠️

#ableg According to a constitutional researcher and lawyer, SMITH is using (at least ) one of the referendum questions to undermine the nature of Federation. Canada is a Federation. Smith wants to change that fundamentally. Just one more Power Grab by SMITH, the Queen of Alberta.

#ableg So Smith wants to collect $1900 per year from temp residents for healthcare… and likely more for education. She uses stats that are completely false in terms of migration. Many of the migrants are Canadians coming from other provinces. Then she scapegoats the business who employs workers!
