You’re switching gears here considering we’re talking about the farming rules which apparently were an affront to farmers. While I agree that the overtime changes while well meaning were overly complicated, I’m not sure I understand where you’re coming from regarding licensing.
Quite the generalization there. Do you think they’re happy with the current annual average workplace deaths on farms?
I’m just gonna leave these here and give you an opportunity to reconsider that position:

RELAX!! Be calm. Nobody said anything about me being pro farm deaths or anything like that. As I said in my post, the truth probably lies in the middle. I don't have strong feelings on this particular issue as it's not something I extremely in tune with.
I recall an interview, perhaps a year end interview or a Stampede interview where Notley indicated they are going to take a different approach to rural Alberta in this election. Try and listen and understand a little more about what went wrong there. I highly doubt, a very unpopular rural Alberta farm bill is in the cards.
Your a smart enough person to understand why that would be, they are in tough and need to win seats. Getting almost shut out of rural Alberta like they did in 2019 won't help them in 2023. They don't have a benefit of a 2015 split vote on the right.
Politics is very much like sports, if your getting your butt kicked, sometimes you got to look internally and see what is going wrong. If the NDP leader is admitting mistakes, which is actually smart and shows leadership, than all Albertan's should pay logical attention as it's important
