“Internal emails show the head of the Alberta Electric System Operator was 'not comfortable' with government’s plan to pause renewables. He was told to 'support the minister without reservation.'” #ableg #abpoli thenarwhal.ca/alberta-renewa…
I have a few deliveries to make in #yeg this weekend! 🚚🪧 Tell the UCP to keep their #HandsOffOurCPP. 👇 albertasfuture.ca/hands-off-our-… #ableg #abpoli
Great, the UCP did the right thing and reversed their decision to cut funding for the low-income transit pass. But they deserve no kudos. They thought they could get away with an attack on some of our most vulnerable neighbours. Don’t forget, Alberta. And stay loud. #ableg
I'd still like an answer on why they decided to target some of the most vulnerable people months after making a huge announcement about how their funding of this program is proof they're taking affordability seriously. And what's next on the chopping block?

UCP says they're axing because transit service isn't its jurisdiction. Neither is funding roads and utility work around an arena, but Danielle Smith will fund that. Choices. cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
@jakob_moffitt Absolutely agreed! Sometimes we get too caught up in the policy/technical side of things, even though it’s super important, too. Politics is about people. Make that connection and your messaging becomes infinitely more powerful.
A callous decision by @ABDanielleSmith and the #ucp. It shows they do not care about everyday Albertans. #abpoli #ableg

A long term plan for commuter rail is good, but it’s also a shiny thing that the UCP are waving to try and distract from Bill 20 and the attack on local democracy. Stay focused, Alberta.
Albertans have said over and over again that they do not want the UCP gambling with their pension. We need to be loud and clear. Get your #HandsOffOurCPP lawn sign today. ⬇ albertasfuture.ca/hands-off-our-…
In Canada, local politicians can be removed from office between elections via recall, election law violations, criminal convictions, conflict of interest, absenteeism, misconduct, incapacity, council resolution, etc. -- all without the sweeping powers in Bill 20.
You can say Bill 20 is good because it would allow governments to remove councillors like Sean Chu. Here's the thing, though: it won't be used to remove councillors like Sean Chu.
Minister @RicMcIver: How does reintroducing corporate and union donations increase transparency? How does allowing donations from a numbered company increase transparency? How does not requiring disclosure of donations before election day increase transparency? #ableg #abpoli

@ABeducator @DuaneBratt Agreed. If Bill 20 isn't enough to get him to resign, tough to believe he doesn't support the intent behind it.
Some think labeling the UCP as "authoritarian" is over-the-top. They've granted themselves the ability to overturn local elections and bylaws as they see fit. And that's only this week.
Danielle Smith’s ultimate revenge on the Kenney Era UCP is forcing them to be the spokespersons for her worst authoritarian policies. Watching @RicMcIver on Bill 20 and @RajanJSaw on Bill 18, I wonder if this was what they believed their political legacy would be.

I am deeply concerned with the proposed changes outlined in Alberta’s Bill 20. This legislation is an attack on local democracy. #yegcc

So the UCP prevents cities from generating revenue outside of property taxes, takes $ from property taxes, won't allow cities to access federal $ without UCP permission, and then blames them for not adequately funding services.
I have received dozens of messages about this piece today. Almost all of them from conservatives grateful that we are finally having this discussion. The coalition for democracy is very diverse. I hope it's growing and getting active.
Minister Jason Nixon had a media availability, and while I'll have some more details in tomorrow's newsletter, here's the TL;DR. Even though the low-income transit pass program had been functioning like a permanent program, on the government's books, it was still a pilot...
The department routinely looks over places for potential savings, and pilot projects are usually one of the first to go. Nixon basically said he didn't know his department was cutting there, but after speaking to the cities himself he agreed it's an important program
The restoration of funding is for this year. The province and cities will negotiate making it a permanent program, but how that gets funded is still up in the air, although he said the province will continue to support it. In the meantime...
