This is the first UCP MLA to say the quiet part out loud, but, Smith won’t admit it’s a problem, she agrees with him. They don’t really like when you call his office and call him a traitor. I know, I did 🥰 Give it a shot or send him some love emails. #Alberta #Referendum #Canada #RedDeer

Things are not going well for the UCP. They just lost a by-election in a formerly safe seat, Danielle Smith has the highest disapproval of any Premier & their poll numbers are dropping hard. Albertans are tired of corruption & chaos, so what’s a populist Premier to do? Rig the game. #ableg
