Yeah but they had the gall to CONDUCT the review therefore forever destroyed the 'Berta oil and gas industry and it'll never be the same every again just because they even mentioned that they are CONDUCTING such a callous review against an industry that brings in trillions of dollars to our economy and pay UNREASONABLE amounts of equalization payments to the likes of Quebec who turn around and dismiss national pipelines because TRUDEAU told them to and now we are here.

Thanks Notley.

I wonder what the UCP is afraid of? Perhaps results weren't to their liking?
I don't think I even need to read the article to know that three year olds should not be earning minimum wage.

I thought the 3 years olds wrote the report.

Is crayon even legible after that amount of time ?

Ah yes, I too remember our founding history of the Indigenous peoples and settlers teaming up to tame this unforgiving frontier, supporting one another, building demographic institutions and ensuring prosperity for everyone.

Edit: Here's the full version which then pivots from our 'founding history' to Alberta Energy is the bestest and cleanest and will ensure prosperity for everyone (unsaid, but just like the founding fathers and Indigenous peoples wanted, right?)

The right/cons blaming the left/liberals for causing divisiveness is like the left blaming the right for libraries existing. So mind numbingly stupid and incorrect.

I have no idea what he replied with, but I know the answer. It's no, he will not figure it out.

Apologies as I haven't kept up on this thread or Alberta politics since I've been out of country? Is it really true that we are heading for another UCP majority...

After all this bs I can't believe people want to reward this government with four more years. Smith is the absolute worst. I take it the NDP is in trouble?

Nope, they just muzzled Smith long enough that the goldfish fence-sitters had any recent transgressions over-written in their memory banks with that one thing involving lightbulbs.

I figure he is still in here for entertainment value. Sort of like when you goto the zoo to see chimps throwing feces.

Our block happy Premier: Danielle Smith

Quote:
Politicians from both of Alberta's major parties are especially guilty of social media blocking, and few are seen to have as many X-ed out social media followers as Danielle Smith.

The premier has previously said name-calling and harassment will result in a block, but many of the Albertans she's targeted say it was because of valid criticism or policy arguments.

Legal experts say that poses a problem.

"When she's blocking out a segment of her constituents and not allowing them to engage with her or her views on certain things, I think that kind of exclusion is unnecessary," Hardcastle said. "It's also frankly thinned-skin."

"When she's blocking out a segment of her constituents and not allowing them to engage with her or her views on certain things, I think that kind of exclusion is unnecessary," Hardcastle said. "It's also frankly thinned-skin."

Smith is excluding countless Albertans from government messaging.

"Acknowledge the fact that, as a politician, you're going to be subject to criticism," Hardcastle added. "That's no reason to deny the public the benefits of your views on policies."

Smith's blocking is a large enough issue that a Twitter page was launched to show constituents the tweets they're missing out on.

One political strategist calls the block button a way of building online echo chambers.

"I think the parties need to listen to everyone and not just slowly serve their base," Sarah Biggs told CTV News. "We need to go back to the community mindset."

Danielle Smith and her team did not respond to multiple requests for comment for this story.
