Also, there's been talk in the forensics field that Alberta might do away with a forensics lab altogether and instead use private sector labs. Some of those labs might be in Alberta and others might be in other provinces or in the United States. There's a lot up in the air. My wife tends to think the province would take the private lab option because opening, certifying and running your own forensics lab is difficult.
Would the Alberta lab pay her the same, or have the same pension/benefits? She has a lot of uncertainty about it. If she stayed with the RCMP (we moved to Vancouver or Ottawa) then she'd have some guarantees for her employment, her benefits, her seniority and access to promotions.
Again, it all comes down to uncertainty for us. I'm also fully aware the NDP (or any government for that matter) would create uncertainty for different professions. This is just our story.

I can understand the anxiety concerning the uncertainty, these are crazy times.
But man...the likelihood of Alberta establishing its own Police force and Forensics labs etc. seems like a huge load of BS.
That seems more like Kenney stroking off his own ego, I dont consider that or Alberta managing its own pensions as even remotely credible ideas.
I wouldnt let that crap keep me up at night. Those are Politicians' delusions of grandeur and fever dreams.
Healthcare concerns? Those I would deem as credible.
As far as I'm concerned Danielle Smith isnt qualified enough to walk my dog much less lead this Province, the last thing I want her input on is healthcare.
She has a lot of ideas but most of those come across about as rational as the ideas of a Hippy on an acid trip. Not grounded in reality.
