We adamantly oppose Jason Kenney’s cowardly decision to flee the legislature while critical public health measures such as paid sick leave have not been enacted, and the government’s broader response flounders.

The abrupt decision to close the legislature follows a week of falsehoods, misleading statements and reversals from Kenney.
On Wednesday, he claimed there is no relationship between public restrictions and viral spread, only to introduce modest new restrictions the following day.
Despite three days of record cases, unprecedented numbers of Albertans in the hospital and the ICU, and the highest rate of infection in Canada and the US, Kenney’s government MLAs continue to vocally undermine public health measures with impunity.
Alberta needs real leadership at this moment of crisis, but instead Jason Kenney is abandoning his post. There is critical work still to be done. Alberta’s NDP is ready to get the job done.
