Chances are dwindling to bring the UCP to justice on corruption: 1. ‘Independent’ review ➡️ captured by UCP (wyant report) 2. Auditor General ➡️ captured by UCP 3. RCMP investigation ➡️ ? 4. Lawsuit court records ➡️ ? There will not be an inquiry. RCMP are a literal gang. That leaves Mentzelopolous?

In 1992, Alberta had approximately 11,700 hospital beds. Today, with nearly double the population and a much older demographic, we have roughly 8,800. This is not an Ottawa or immigration problem.
