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.

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.

Freedom of Speech? Not for Christian Pastors in Alberta…
As the lunatic left tries desperately to find some way of slowing down the Wildrose electoral juggernaut, such bastions of tolerance as Warren Kinsella and the Edmonton Journal have declared that pastors have no right to actually write about what they believe. This is hardly surprising from either source, both of whom believe tolerance should only be applied to their views, … [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...]
