In case you haven't been paying attention through the pandemic, if you live in Alberta, you are completely on your own to keep yourself and your loved ones safe from COVID. Yes, we have the opportunity to get vaccinated. No, there has been no real leadership on this. 1/11
There has been an offering of frivolous prizes you could win if you got vaccinated. No, the government is not going to give us any sort of proof that we have been vaccinated, other than sheets of paper which may or may not be recognized in other jurisdictions. 2/11
Kenney is so wound up with trying to please his backwards-thinking, anti-science, anti-vax base, and his corporate donors, that he has no time for, or interest in, public health. Now it seems than AHS has been fudging the numbers. There is no significant contact tracing. 3/11

I was in a discussion re: @LtGovAB2 having the power to dissolve government and call and election in extraordinary circumstance. It was slammed down as not possible. So, I provided the following screenshots from the Lsgislative Assembly page 1/ 
THE TIPPING POINT
Yesterday I wrote a thread about the tipping point of tolerance of inhumane abuse of power by UCP. Attached.
It was in response to the outrage about Xmas vacations and why people feel so angry and filled with rage.
I’m going to try to do a better job today.

On Friday January 1, 2021, Kenney gave a speech about the scandal his party is caught up in.
The hubris & contempt for the public was palpable. He showed up late, putting many on edge, & then proceeded to cover the butts of several MLAs & political aids who travelled over Xmas.

There would be no consequences. No laws were broken.
That sparked outrage and protest. And rightly so.
When a premier has the audacity to try to excuse a betrayal of public trust and minimize the contempt his party showed for public health, the public boiled over with rage.
