Apparently the premiers of Canada now believe they are in charge of federal decision making. Not the Prime Minister.
Or at least that’s what the author is trying to sell readers.
I’ve never seen anything more comical in my life.
Excessive arrogance and hubris. But so egregiously over the boundaries of believable, it’s hilarious. Who is going to believe that premiers across Canada ignored the constitution and the subsequent assignment of purview to go to bat for Alberta and Jason Kenny? 😆😅🤣
I think the author has lost the concept of the “Big Lie.”
Yes it’s supposed to be colossal. But there needs to be some small vestige of truth in the big lie.
You’d have to be simple minded to believe that all premiers, including the Liberal and NDP ones support Kenney
But this is political comedy.
It’s easy to see Kenney commissioned this opinion piece to follow up criticism of him not accessing federal funds for COVID.
Never admit fault. Never concede the political enemy has done good, never accept blame, blame that one enemy for everything.
That’s a little too obvious that someone’s been following Hitler’s handbook “Mein Kampf.”
But completely missed the mark in nuance.
Imagine believing this tripe would convince enough Albertans that we’d turn on Trudeau for being so mean to deny stimulus funds for Alberta. While Kenney sits on a couple hundred million for COVID-19 relief.
The only people that will believe this are his base supporters. Q nuts and the devoutly religious gullible.

Seems conservatives have an overdeveloped sense of entitlement.
How does it feel to the average Albertan to be considered second class? Apparently UCP, CPC and other conservatives across Canada are exempt from COVID public health orders.
I wonder if that means anti maskers are first class citizens? What about church pastors and parishioners? Are they first class status too?
But teachers, physicians, police, first responders, grocery workers, and every other Albertan is considered second class.
This is Alberta if we don’t get COVID under control. Quite difficult when MLAs and political aids and press secretaries flout COVID public health orders, businesses remain open, and churches are pushing the boundaries of 15% capacity by about an extra 35% on a regular basis.
In other words, Alberta’s future and Alberta healthcare’s impending collapse is to be expected when the government and the entire political party that makes up the government refuses to take COVID seriously.
If you’re hoping to avoid catastrophic healthcare failure, now is the time to speak up.
But speaking alone is not going to accomplish a policy change.
Ontario has similar issues. Speaking up resulted in the scapegoat resignation and utterances of disappointment.
Michelle Rempel reveals she made the decision to stay in Canada because she might get caught, not because she believes it to be the correct and ethical thing to do.
Listing a number of reasons she feels so traumatized by the restrictions of COVID is priceless political theatre. Everyone is in the same boat. None of us can visit with family.
But Ms Rempel feels entitled and denied that privilege because of CBC reporters.
Screw the plebs who are in the same situation. She’s Michelle Rempel. A politician. She sacrifices so much already. And deserves special treatment. But CBC is the vulture waiting for her to cash in on special privileges.
These people need to be verbally eviscerated for attempting to exempt themselves from COVid orders.
They should be fined and lose their jobs. It’s irrelevant which party they belong to. People are dying and leaders have the extra responsibility to lead by example.
It’s fricking ridiculous that seniors and people with comorbidities are dying in droves and these people have some sense of entitlement that they deserve a vacation?
Everyone else has to isolate at home while these politicians and pundits jet set somewhere warm to relax?!?😡
