Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides is rallying UCP volunteers to fight against the bid to recall him, prompting the petition leader to warn Elections Alberta that the MLA’s counter-campaign might be overstepping the rules.
He went further this week. Nicolaides emailed his riding’s UCP members, urging them to volunteer to help him counter the “politically motivated recall campaign” to unseat him.
“The process to defeat this recall requires a swift, organized and robust response, and we need to defend the mandate you gave,” Nicolaides wrote in#the email#that circulated on social media, and which he later verified to CBC News.
And here is a link to the post with the letter he wrote asking for help

I was thinking about this when I was signing the recall today. There was a guy yelling at us out his lifted truck saying all sorts of nonsense which sounded almost scripted. I gotta think these "volunteers" are just sent to heckle and harass the people at the recall stations.
