Late Monday, UCP MLA for Lac Ste. Anne-Parkland Shane Getson wrote a disturbing post encouraging members of law enforcement to disobey orders and stand with those engaged in these illegal blockades at Coutts and elsewhere in Canada. #ableg #yyc
“He wrote, ‘I’ll ask those in position of law enforcement, as well as military person(nel) to remember your oaths that you have taken, the country that you represent, and the citizens that you are to protect.

#ableg #yycroads
Getson added: "I want you to consider that when the orders are delivered to you in the coming days."

Today I stood with Calgarians to talk about how Jason Kenney's bait-and-switch budget will hurt them.

Here's the list we have thus far: <thread>

#ableg #abbeyroad #thecostofKenney
2/ Calgary Cancer Centre: The UCP budget pushes back funding to build the Calgary Cancer Centre. Proponents say the delay signals a high likelihood the hospital will open short-staffed and under-funded. #abhealth #yychealth #ableg #abbudget
3/ Education Property Tax: Early estimates from the @cityofcalgary show the UCP is withholding $15.5 million in Education Property Tax revenues collected by the province. Mayor @nenshi thinks this will mean property tax increases of more than 1% next year. #yyc #abed #abbudget
