#Ableg News Time!!! (1/12)

Quite frankly, this is the WORST Week I’ve seen for the UCP yet!

Dog whistles, gaslighting, and abandoning their role to protect Albertans…and several awful stories in-between

Ready to ride?
Buckle Alberta…let’s go!

#Ableg News 🧵 (2/12)

1. Kenney lands historic Child Care Deal!

JUST KIDDING!

Kenney announced a “child care plan for Alberta” but NOT the $10/day. They ONLY signed an extension of a 2017 deal reached under the NDP

This was the first big lie of the week it just gets worse.

#Anleg News 🧵 (3/12)

2. The CBC found that UCP lied about new covid cases. The ACTUAL cases were 176% higher than what was reported. WTAF 😳 y

3. An Alberta-dominant Senate committee appoints an Albertan, making Kenney’s referendum useless! Kenney pouts about fairness. 😂

#Ableg News 🧵 (4/12)

4. SURPRISE! A Draft of the “Anyi-Albertan inquiry was leaked

A multi-million dollar. 2 year inquiry that judges people in secret without ever hearing from them or examining a single original document…That found 0 evidence!!

Another $3,500,000 waste

#Ableg News 🧵 (5/12)

5. Kenney announces he created 14,000 new jobs, showing us that gov’t-sponsored social programs work

6. UCP released a very odd last second survey that “looks like” it’s aimed at selling public info to private companies. @aaronhoyland

7. UNBELIEVABLE!!! 500 contact tracers were released on Monday. Guess you can’t trace outbteaks back to the stampede without tracers…

8. Alberta hero @jvipondmd got a! INTENSE tweet that Shandro is the behind the fake low covid numbers.

#Abpoli

#Ableg News 🧵 (7/12)

Now the BIG 3 Stories:

9. UCP MLA Toor is fined for accepting ILLEGAL corporate donations and filing FALSE statements!!

In total: his campaign is fined $33,599!

The lack of ethics in the UCP is an inspiration for #YYC mayoral candidate Jeff Davison.

#Ableg News Thread (8/12)

This is MESSED UP

10. Kenney and Shandro’s friends at Telus Babylon Health screwed up

Eight (8) MAJOR violations for improperly accessing, storing and using our personal health data, including photos

How much did Shandro’s wife receive for Babylon?

#Ableg News 🧵 (9/12)

11. The NDP kicked the crap out of the UCP in fundraising for the 4th quarter in a row!!!

The NDP are out-funding Kenney by 197%, and is a sign that his support in Alberta is collapsing.

Kenney responded by tweeting about trucks?? 🤦🏻‍♂️

#Ableg News 🧵 (10/12)

12. Alberta made international news…in shock and horror.

Alberta is TRAILING Canada in 1st doses AND eliminating quarantine requirements

The world is watching and saying this is “reckless” and “repugnant”

We’re in trouble, Alberta…
#Abpoli

#Ableg News 🧵 (11/12)

13. The REAL story this week is YOU Albertans!

HUNDREDS of Albertans are protesting at #Ableg and #YYC against Kenney’s decision to remove remaining Covid protocols.

This is the start of Alberta FINALLY speaking out…and the last days of Kenneyism
