trying to spin their drastic and cruel cuts to PUF programming, I hear the @dixiechicks in my head.
Even if you are not directly impacted by the decimation to PUF, the entire province of AB should be outraged by this news. #abed #ableg

It helps families.
It helps communities.

I wish the @alberta_ucp could see the bigger picture.

Key point?
For every $1 AB spends on PUF, you save $7 (SEVEN FREAKING DOLLARS) in the future.

"Invest in early childhood development:
Reduce deficits, strengthen the economy"
Isn't ⬇️ deficits, ⬆️ economy exactly what the @Alberta_UCP wants? Am I missing something here?
