On March 1st, 2021 - Pastor James Coates' 14th day in solitary confinement in Edmonton Remand Centre - the Edmonton Police Service issued a Public Warning about Cyle Larsen, a convicted child sex offender who was released from the Edmonton Remand Centre. This raises an obvious question. A couple of them, actually. Why does the Alberta Government fear the release of a … [Read more...]
In an age of myopic self-absorption Danielle Smith’s selfless act sure stands out
I tumbled across the story of Danielle Smith’s awesome act for charity only because she shares the same name as Alberta Wildrose Party Leader Danielle Smith. This Danielle Smith is 21 years old, was one of the Torch Bearers at the 2012 Olympic Games in England and lives in Tollemache Fields, South Witham, England. At the age of 15 she lost her left leg to … [Read more...]
Ted Morton, the destroyer of Albertans’ Property Rights, is booted from the Alberta Legislature
In what ultimately became one of the few bright spots on Election Night for Danielle Smith and the Wildrose Party, Ted Morton lost his seat in the Alberta Legislature. It was with great relish that I took in the news that Bruce McAllister had unseated the wannabe tyrant Ted Morton in the riding of Chestermere-Rocky View. This is significant because Ted Morton was the … [Read more...]
Alison Redford: Just the same old political payoffs, not the “renewed party” she claims
Alison Redford will say anything to get elected on Monday. Literally. While she claims that she is the face of a "new Alberta" and the future of hope and change in that province, her actions say quite the opposite. While saying on the one hand she would drop retirement pay for MLAs but in March it was discovered that retiring MLAs are set to walk away from the public … [Read more...]
Danielle Smith’s Speech about the Importance of Monday’s Alberta Provincial Election
[S3AUDIO file='Audio/danielle-smith-the-importance-of-this-election.mp3' authurl='true' autoplay='false' vol='70'] Today I want to talk about the historic choice facing Albertans next Monday. All political leaders talk about the future during election campaigns. It’s our job, to offer a vision of where we want to lead, and how we intend to get there. Our Wildrose party … [Read more...]
Danielle Smith and Wildrose’s “lack of experience” running deficits or voting themselves 30% pay increases…
During the Leadership Debate last week Alison Redford tossed out the fact that Danielle Smith “had no experience” governing a province as though that was somehow a bad thing. It’s a bizarre statement but one that gains traction with the Chateratti across Alberta, since the drive-by media is always quick to parrot Redford’s blathering verbatim, as though it actually meant … [Read more...]
Danielle Smith’s Unbridled Audacity: Making Alberta Politicians Accountable to Albertans
I’ve got to say… Danielle Smith has a heck of a lot of audacity. Just who does she think she is, anyway? Danielle Smith just put forward the latest plank in her campaign’s election platform that would make Alberta's provincial politicians accountable to the citizens. It’s all contained in her proposed Alberta Accountability Act. It transforms MLAs from being Edmonton’s … [Read more...]
Albertans: Alison Redford stole your property rights. NOW is the time to take them back.
Most Albertans have no idea that the Progressive Conservative government, under the so-called “leadership” of Ed Stelmach and Alison Redford, literally extinguished property rights in the province of Alberta. This was done in a deceitfully systematic and methodical way using Bill 50, Bill 19, Bill 36 and Bill 10. The combined effect of these laws and the order in which a … [Read more...]
Bill 36: Stripping Property Rights from Albertans
Alison Redford's so-called conservative government's decision to implement Bill C-36, The Land Stewardship Act, which effectively gives control of all land in Alberta to the provincial government, is a death blow to property rights in Alberta. Under this law, government bureaucrats will now dictate to land owners what they can and cannot do on their own land. If this sounds … [Read more...]
Alberta’s Danielle Smith sends Stelmach running for Retirement
It was a funny story to read in Saturday's Edmonton Journal… “Wildrose tail wags the dog as federal, provincial Tories quietly meet”. Funny, because the provincial branch hasn’t seemed to have much use for the federal one, given how Ottawa and Edmonton have clashed recently over health care transfers, and in a very public way. To have the provincial and federal Tories … [Read more...]
