I am cross-checking the list that was originally posted last spring and today's list of parks.

On Today's list, I am not seeing: Kinbrook Island Provincial Park, Kehiwin Provincial Recreation Area, Tillbrook Provincial Park... #ableg
Don't see Park Lake Provincial Park on today's list. What's going on with that? That was also on the list back in February. #ableg
My colleague @andrew_jeffrey is also checking -- he has found other omissions -- Engstrom Lake, Jumpingpound, Bleriot Ferry , Chain Lakes and Lawrence Lake. all not on today's list. #ableg
@andrew_jeffrey I was suspicious about the list the government sent today...because I noticed some of the parks and rec areas already had long-standing partnerships and weren't on the list posted back in February. #Ableg
Another park and/or rec areas not on today's list -- Williamson Provincial Park #ableg
Not seeing anything today about the fate of comfort camping at Dinosaur P.P. which was on February's optimization list. #ableg
I found more. Livingstone Falls, Oldman Dam (I camped there last summer), Maycroft, Lundbreck Falls Provincial Recreation Areas. These all offer overnight camping. #ableg
It's becoming clear that today's list isn't quite the fait accompli the government is making it out to be.

I get that they may be trying to secure partnerships for these other areas but it really begs the question about what the plans are for these parks and rec areas. #ableg

AISH recipients upset about lack of consultation on payment-date changes cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
I spoke to people who receive AISH. They are unhappy the government didn't consult with them on payment day changes.

A spokesperson for @RajanJSaw says there were 'informal' consultations. The minister talked to "department policy experts and front-line staff." #ableg
@RajanJSaw Like my colleagues, @charlesrusnell and @jennierussell_ , I received emails that I clearly wasn't supposed to receive on this story (documented in this story).

It turns out it was the only way I was able to drill down on the fact the government didn't formally consult. #ableg

BREAKING: the ethics commissioner has responded to the NDP's letter. Marguerite Trussler says the members under investigation by the elex comissioner (like Peter Singh would be in conflict of interest) if they vote on Bill 22 #ableg
MLAs who have close associates that are being investigated by elex commissioner, or who work for them, would likely be in conflict if they vote on bill 22, Trussler says. #ableg
Another interesting part of Trussler's letter -- she says 10 members of the public have asked her to investigate the matter, stop the proceedings of Bill 22 -- or they have shared concerns with her. #ableg

Salaries for UCP political staffers have just been posted.
alberta.ca/political-sala… #ableg
Here's the tea. The UCP is listing the contracts on a biweekly basis...NDP contracts listed annual amounts. So I'm multiplying the amounts in the contracts by 26 pay periods. #ableg
Jamie Huckabay, chief of staff to the premier is making $224,120, slightly less than Notley's chief of staff Nate Rotman who made $225,000 #ableg

the UCP government has appointed new board chairs for U of C, U of A, SAIT and Mount Royal. They all seem to come from business backgrounds. #ableg
Former Edmonton city councillor Michael Phair is no longer the chair of the University of Alberta Board of Governors. He is being replaced Kate Chisholm. #ableg
This seems like a really big deal. Phair was appointed as U of A chair by the previous NDP government to replace Doug Goss. #ableg

.@rachelnotley says she is shocked that @jkenney can just "walk by" the bigotry expressed by Mark Smith. She says it goes to Kenney's leadership. She said he was tested yesterday and he failed. #ableg
Notley says she believes bigotry and the Kamikaze still will have an effect on voters. #ableg
Notley is asked about the new @planetjanetyyc poll showing the UCP still has commanding lead. She says it will come down to voters on election day. #ableg
