Regarding the UCP, do you honestly believe this is a case of a "few bad apples"?

From my perspective, the number of MLAs acting in good faith/in the interest of their constituency (and not mutually ideologically) is well below 50% at this point.

I think the point here is it was raised for one thing that was pretty non-specific, then donated to another. I guess no one who donated was too upset, since they all have the same goals of stupidity. But this was just another case of Smith thinking she was being clever and knew how things worked, only to find out she didn't have a ####ing clue, and had to bail on the "plan". Solid Premier material.
What someone does with other people’s money that’s been entrusted to them, whether private or public, also seems incredibly relevant to evaluating a politician.

She’s just being used to test weak points.

“It’s embarrassing, but actually not that bad, but actually good because it shows she knew what she was doing was wrong.”

Honestly those kinds of mental gymnastics are just incredible to watch. It's just hilariously misguided.

The fact that they’re able to accomplish it all in just the Header and sub-header is just downright impressive.

The EDMONTON Sun? Oh man, I can only imagine the quality of journalism going on there. Probably makes the guy washing his hands in the urinal look like Walter Cronkite.

How do you make look Jason Kenney look like he was awesome in comparison. like what Trump did for Dubya.

Rachel Notley must have gotten so happy when Danielle got "elected".

That is exactly what I say about my dog, I'd rather by dog know they were misbehaving when they do things they are not meant to than just to be a oblivious. I couldn't imagine saying that to any adult or human.

Cogent points made by Max Fawcett about the ranks of the UCP as it sheds its (relatively) moderate caucus members.
