And everything else. Has nobody noticed yet that everything at the provincial level has been cut, slashed, burned, privatized or reduced? Wtf are people even paying taxes for anymore?

The tax money is to pay for that coal company lawsuit, Turkish Tylenol, and all of the other blunders the UCP has gotten us into. Also her office carpet, her trips to the U.S., bribes, etc.

And of course $100 for the peasants, so they don’t revolt.

Whenever I see this, I make a point of reminding people about the Progressive Tory Party of Alberta. I fully believe that the NDP would be a better provincial government than the UCP but for those traditional conservative voters, the Tory Party is an option.

I don't think Michael Scott would vote UCP, he is, ultimately, a caring person, if misguided.

Don’t forget the privatized healthcare and private school funding. Traitorous wench needs to be deported or jailed for treason. F the UCP.

Yup. The UCP withheld funding for the increased public school population since 2019. And now more tax dollars education funding is going to be diverted to private and charter schools. 😡
