As iggy pointed out, you’ve been trotting out the “fear and smear” stuff with delight against the NDP for years (literally!). Anti-Notley fear mongering, bringing up the past, it’s literally been your bread and butter as a poster regarding Alberta politics.
The UCP has used “fear and smear” already, the PC party had a clinic with it in the last Federal election. No mention from you, which is fine, but poses the question as to why you would stay silent unless it’s the NDP. Not only that, but accusing the NDP of resorting to US style politics doesn’t make a lot of sense either. It’s politics. It’s been around in Canada for as long as I can remember. Let’s not pretend it’s out of the norm or something a party “resorts” to. It’s happens in every election.
I get it, Kenney is your guy and you’re UCP/FP or bust. But pretending you care about fear and smear in general or trying to paint the NDP as some unique offender just doesn’t seem that believable when you’re been a big fan of it for so long before the NDP stepped up.

So calling out the sitting party on their actual record of governance the last 4 years, now qualifies as "fear and smear"?
Good grief.
In regards to bringing up what a candidate said in their past being an actual part of what they believe today, then the UCP should be splashing this all over the province.
And that picture is WAY WAY more recent than the Kenney video, so i must conclude that Notley and Phillips are actively working against getting ANY pipelines built, therefor they should automatically be disqualified from being elected to represent Albertans. Right?
