I will never stop being shocked at how easily this Government lies. And they do it ALL THE TIME. 🤥

🚨Massive thread alert. 🚨
PS @albertaNDP, I'm stealing your image because it's perfect. 😁
Exhibit A: The Allan inquiry. You've got a bunch of press secretaries, cabinet ministers, Savage, and Kenney all going on about what a success it was.
If you read the $3.5M report you would quickly find that Allan FOUND NO WRONGDOING

Exhibit B: Nixon says Fed government has "not invested in any significant way inside this province" to help Alberta and Canada meet its climate targets. @Jantafrench
Well you know, except
-Orphan Wells
-Billions for transit projects
-$100M for Low Carbon Leadership Fund
-etc
Exhibit C: Defend AB Parks
“I know Jason Kenney keeps saying we’re not selling your parks and to that he’s probably right, he’s not selling them, he’s delisting them at which point they can be sold,” said Konopnicki.

Exhibit D: Coal Mining
"And that, my friends, is where Kenney is at. At this stage in his time here, he is so positive of his ability to manipulate our reality, he now thinks he can tell us the sun is shining during a downpour." Thanks @shmitzysays

Exhibit E: We weren't involved in the municipal elections, nope, that wasn't us campaigning for, donating, and endorsing our favourite candidates. Nooope. 🤥

Exhibit F: "Rural Doctors aren't leaving"
"New AHS documents, obtained through FOIP, show that Jason Kenney’s Health Minister repeatedly lied in the legislature about the growing number of Alberta doctors resigning from rural hospitals..."
albertandpcaucus.ca/news-events/po…
Exhibit G: Curriculum. Remember when the UCP said they had Chief Littlechild's support for the curriculum review and then he said it was misrepresented? Yup, I remember.
cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
Exhibit H: I never called for a Niqab ban 🤥
"Premier Kenney is denying he supported a ban on niqabs even though he issued a directive in 2011 banning women from wearing them during citizenship ceremonies..."
cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
Exhibit I: Public Health Guarantee.
(He must have had his fingers crossed while signing it I guess)
globalnews.ca/news/6241524/n…
Exhibit J: Adriana LaGrange caught in a lie about school board funding on Reddit
reddit.com/r/alberta/comm…
Exhibit K: I was only on vacation for two weeks and was available the whole time but oddly enough, I was actually away 3 weeks and my calendar was empty. 🤷♂️
calgary.ctvnews.ca/kenney-s-calen…
Exhibit L: Who could forget the kamikaze campaign and the allegations that Jason Kenney cheated and lied his way to victory? We haven't forgotten Jason.
cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
Exhibit M: And of course, Rachel Notley was kicked out of the House for calling out Jason Nixon for lying about firing the election commissioner that was investigating Kenney. 🤥
calgary.citynews.ca/2019/11/19/not…
Exhibit N: Remember when Sonya Savage said that they would pause coal leases, but it was really only 11 coal leases or 0.2% that they were pausing? I remember.
thetyee.ca/Analysis/2021/…
ANYWAYS, this was going to be a short thread but I just kept finding more and more examples.
As I said, I will never understand the ease at which Jason Kenney and his team of miscreants lie. Demand better Alberta. 2023 can't come soon enough.
#betteroffwithrachel #ableg
Okay let's keep going.
Exhibit O “One thing I think we’re learning, epidemiologically, is that [the homeless] population has a very high level of immune resistance, of immunity and resilience against an influenza of this nature” UHH WHAT?
theglobeandmail.com/canada/alberta…
Exhibit P: (How could I have forgotten about this one?)
Exhibit Q
"Widespread endorsement for curriculum review"
🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥🤥
Looks like we've got Exhibit R, hot off the press, another easily disproven lie from the Premier. 🤦♂️
Do I get to add this as Exhibit S of Kenney lying to Albertans? Why yes, I think I do. 🤥
Exhibit T of UCP lies: @NACMilliken caught in a lie and called out by @Dave_Khan who is threating to report him to the Law Society, refuses to back down.🍿
