Faster cars, so people can spend more on gas! Just what everyone needs! Sounds like he's taken a page out of the UCP playbook in AB. (Be careful of this! You don't want to take pages from the UCP!) Get rid of speed cameras (that might just be in cities? I'm not sure), and increase speed limits.

Danielle Smith is pushing a separatism vote to save herself, and we’re the ones who pay for it. And here’s the trap: we could win the argument and still let her walk away without consequences. #ableg #canpoli #abpoli

No matter how they try to spin this, Danielle Smith and the UCP own this separatist referendum. She is a separatist Premier, and the UCP is a separatist party. And Albertans will be left paying the price. youtu.be/xmc49CbuGZw

Alberta, let this sink in: In Canadian history, only 2 premiers initiated referenda on separating from Canada: - René Lévesque 1980 - Jacques Parizeau 1995 Both Quebec separatists who nearly destroyed Canada. Today, Danielle Smith will join their ranks. #ableg #cdnpoli

#ForeverCanadian movement is not standing down. Although Court, for a second time, ruled that there should be no referendum on the separatists’ question, our government sides with 25% over 75% of Albertans. It’s time for our government to listen to the vast majority of Albertans

This sounds like it might be right. Are the UCP getting worried? I hate what the polls are saying, but things seem to get worse every day for them. I just hope that (things getting worse) does translate in the "poll" that matters (the next election).

Permanent DST was what I want and voted for. However, it was so close and the nos had it when there was a referendum. I guess I shouldn't be surprised Marlaina and the UCP are just doing what they want, anyway.

There is a lot of criticism of floor crossings to Liberals. I’m not a fan of it either, but it’s legal. Partisan critics must be reminded that Danielle Smith holds a Canadian floor crossing record. For a Cabinet appointment promise, she led 9 Wildrose MLAs to cross to PCs. #cdnpoli #ableg

The UCP said they would respect the findings of the independent Boundaries Commission ... until they didn't like the results. Now, they're ignoring the experts, who consulted with thousands of Albertans, to push through a map that would steal your vote and rig the election.

There is a reason that we do not have MLAs decide on electoral boundaries. Tossing out the Electoral Boundaries Commission and replacing it with a UCP-dominated committee is not just a bad idea. It is really bad for democracy. Ask the US, ask Hungary. This is not normal!

With this, along with so many other things, I just don't understand how her approval rating is still so high. And, they are saying that if an election was held today, the UCP would win with higher numbers than in the last election! How can people still support her and the UCP as a whole!?

Bill 206 is a simple piece of legislation, recommended by their own advocate, that would have given ALL Albertans the ability to live with dignity and hope, but the UCP government voted against it today. We deserve better. We deserve so much better. youtube.com/shorts/BUjhz...
