#Ableg News Thread (1/13)

Happy Friday #Abpoli!

The week was another TERRIBLE week for the @UCPCaucus; Covid is spreading, cronyism is running WILD and Kenney is NOWHERE when we need him a leader!

Ready for a wild series of stories this week? Me too! Let’s go!

#Ableg News 🧵 (2/13)

1. UCP MLA Tracy “Honolulu” Allard calls out LaGrange’s aggressive and racist curriculum telling her to ACTUALLY do consultation with Albertans 🏝

2. Trudeau is OFFICIALLY using examples of Kenney as his warning for Canada voting in Conservatives. 😬
#Ableg News 🧵 (3/13)

3. Kenney’s spending $11,000,000 so rural Albertans can vote in his fake Senate referendum - but spending $0 to make sure its on indigenous Reserves.

Indigenous leaders say it’s “a slap in the face” to the First Peoples living in Alberta. Do you agree?
#Ableg News 🧵 (4/13)

4. Covid19 so out of control that AHS evokes an “emergency order” forcing nurses to cancel their their vacations.

5. WOW! It turns out that NOBODY wanted former UCP MLA @LailaGoodridge to be a CPC candidate. The CA is flabbergasted and insulted.
#Ableg News 🧵 (5/13)

IMPORTANT STORY!

6. A botched undercover drug operation targeting substance users at the only supervised consumption site in #YYC revealed that the police may have been targeting the site to aid the UCP's plan to shut it down

Kenney is pure evil!
#Ableg News 🧵 (6/13)

7. @JessStCool claims Kenney started a “2-week vacation” ignoring he’s been gone for 3-weeks.🤥

8. Kenney decides he’d rather side with his racist pal, reconciliation denier & our #AbEd curriculum writer Chris Champion than respect Ingenious Canadians
#Ableg News 🧵 (7/13)

9. Kenney has left as much as $1,300,000,000 on Federal Covid-19 relief money on the table.

instead of helping our public schools, vulnerable Albertans, and our health care system - he’s secretly hoarding the money. Where is it going? @MichelletypoQ
#Ableg News 🧵 (8/13)

10. As of today: 33% of all new Covid cases in Canada are in Alberta. We have 10% of the country’s population. #ableg and #yeg zone continues to be a hotspot.

11. Regina resident and UCP MLA Miranda Rosin doesn’t want kids to wear masks in school.
#Ableg News 🧵 (9:13)

12. The GoA website warns businesses NOT to ask proof of vaccination or they’ll face lawsuits!

13. SURPRISE! Alberta’s new Chief Firearms Officer Is the #YYC EDA President for the Conservative Party. Let’s hope her $1,100 in donations to Kenney paid off!
#Ableg News 🧵 (10/13)

14. Kenney’s CFL promo, insisting that games start up, despite the rise of Covid-19’has backfired!

Now 14 or more @elks players have Covid-19, postponing and possibly cancelling games. What a disaster!!!
#Ableg News 🧵 (11/13)

15. Despite Hinshaw PROMISING to provide the Scientific evidence and data used to justify the removal of COVID-19 protocols….Hinshaw said it was delayed again!

Does this mean the decision to justify the loosest rules in Canada was never about the data?
#Ableg News 🧵 (12/13)

I have no “positive” stories this week. If you have something you have that you’d like to share that’s positive - PLEASE include it here!

Alberta needs good news stories - and TRUST ME - we need to hear yours!!!
#Ableg News 🧵 (13/13)

What a week Alberta!

Between Kenney disappearing (AGAIN), Shandro imploding (AGAIN) and Hinshaw tone policing us….it’s been another HORRIBLE week for the @UCPCaucus!!!

Let’s take a trip to 15 UGLY stories over the last 7-days in #Abpoli , shall we?
#Ableg News 🧵 (2/15)

1. Postmedia Journalists and Pundits review of Kenney’s $100 gift cards to hospital protesters are in; and it was a DISASTER! 😳

If you’re a conservative Leader in Alberta - and Corbella, Bell & Braid say you’re awful - you’ve screwed up big. Wow!
#Ableg News 🧵 (3/15)

2. SHOCKING!

@CMOH_Alberta data & modelling was HEAVILY flawed!

Sources were duplicated, NOT peer-reviewed. published AFTER the July 1st reopening decision, NOT from Alberta or Canada (despite being available) and DID NOT factor in the Delta Variant 🤦🏻‍♂️

Well Alberta….what the heck happened?? It’s been a HORRIBLE week for the @UCPCaucus!

Albertans went from anger towards Kenney abandoning Alberta to even more anger and confusion when he returned….it’s bad

Grab a glass of Jamieson’s and let’s review 🥃
#Ableg News 🧵(2/14)

YIKES!

1. Our week started with UCP MLA Nathan Neudorf admitting Kenney’s plan is to let the Delta variant sweep through our unvaccinated populations, causing more serious illness and death…perhaps explaining why he’s not in Alberta right now. 😳
#Ableg News 🧵(3/14)

2. Kenney’s Executive Council l, which is responsible for guiding the province during Covid-19, released their schedule for this week.

As Covid-19 cases surges, schools are back in session, and we needed direction….they were nowhere to be found…

Want to see what made the week so bad? Let’s jump in team!
#Ableg News 🧵 (2/12)

1) Despite saying they can’t afford AB nurses, a job ad shows the UCP tapped an agency to hire contract nurses to replace them at $75/hr (@Patricia_Ann_S)

2) UCP blames Trudeau for not wanting to sign $10/day care deal ignoring 8-other provinces signed off
#Ableg News 🧵 (3/12)

YIKES!

3). The War Room is under investigation for proving personal information to a third party ran by Kenney’s good friend Hamish Marshall - a co-founder of One Persuasion and campaign manager (with Brock Harrison) for the Conservatives' 2019 election!

Alberta - it was ANOTHER week of UCP blunders, Kenney lies, and Hinshaw’s COVID-19 failures.

We have 15 stories this week (a 87.5% increase over last week’s 8).

Ready to hop in? Let’s bounce Alberta: 🦘
#Abpoli
#Ableg News 🧵 (2/12)

1. The UCP FINALLY released the KPMG review of the COVID-19 first wave response on a Friday evening.

It revealed that:
🤦🏻‍♂️ Shandro failed to properly communicate with municipalities
😬 Kenney failed to make ANY adjustments for Wave 2 / 3
#Ableg News 🧵 (3/12)

2. Despite Kenney’s attempts to sell off our eastern slopes to Australian miners - Trudeau stepped in and rejected it (Thank you Trudeau)

3. While Alberta’s unemployment rate dropped to 8.5% #YYC grew to 9.8%

Kenney’s STILL down -53,000 jobs in Alberta!

#Ableg Weekly News 🧵 (1/8)

Alberta….this was a AWFUL week of bad polls, Shantrums, lies and throwing people under the bus.

It wasn’t AS bad as last week…but my goodness - it was UGLY

Ready for a ride??? Let’s go!!!
#Ableg News 🧵 (2/8)

1. UCP’s Brock Harrison justified 0 restrictions saying Alberta is “above the national average” in vaxes

100% lie!

We’re 2nd worst in Canada in 1st doses and closer to Florida than Canada’s average!

Canada: 71.1%
Alberta: 65.9%
Florida: 58.4%

Yikes…
#Ableg News 🧵 (3/8)

2. Kenney said he reinstated UCP MLA Pat “Texas” Rehn several municipalities supported him.

SURPRISE!!! Nobody supported him!

3. Shandro backtracked after saying he wasn’t going to release the review of the UCP’s handling of Covid. Where is it?

#Ableg News Time!!! (1/12)

Quite frankly, this is the WORST Week I’ve seen for the UCP yet!

Dog whistles, gaslighting, and abandoning their role to protect Albertans…and several awful stories in-between

Ready to ride?
Buckle Alberta…let’s go!
#Abpoli
#Ableg News 🧵 (2/12)

1. Kenney lands historic Child Care Deal!

JUST KIDDING!

Kenney announced a “child care plan for Alberta” but NOT the $10/day. They ONLY signed an extension of a 2017 deal reached under the NDP

This was the first big lie of the week it just gets worse.
#Anleg News 🧵 (3/12)

2. The CBC found that UCP lied about new covid cases. The ACTUAL cases were 176% higher than what was reported. WTAF 😳 y

3. An Alberta-dominant Senate committee appoints an Albertan, making Kenney’s referendum useless! Kenney pouts about fairness. 😂
