Time for another honest live tweeting!

Let’s start!

The presser is scheduled to start at 3:30, what time does it actually start?

We’re going with 3:52.

Well, not on time already…
Here we go!
National Anthem!

Old chairs!

Shandy is in the room!

Holding a book!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
2 members of exec council taking new roles.

There’s only two in the room!

Mystery!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Lt Gov thanks the government for their (dis)service.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Kenney - “Jason Copping” is the minister of health.

Looks like he stole Shandys haircut as well as his job…

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Kenney - “Shandy is new minister of Labour and Immigration”

Shandy - “I’m free!”

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
And that’s it…?

Huh.

So Shandy stays a minister for that sweet sweet minister pay, but now he gets to drop off the radar for a bit.

Looks like 5 PM will be the real fun.

Ok, so we’re already a little bit of a late start.

So if nothing else, at least they’re consistent on this?
Kenny on now, “We’re declaring a public health emergency, we knew it was gonna be bad, but it’s extra bad, like if only we could have seen it happen”

So the province announced $8 million for EMS…

What does that boil down to?

Actually, not very much.

(A thread)

/1
The province says they’re creating 100 FTE positions.

As always, the devil is in the details.

They’re taking 30 temp positions already in the work force and extending them.

But what about the other 70?

/2
The other 70 are full time positions they’ll be filling from the casual pool.

But that’s still pretty good, right?

Well sorta?

So why is there so much focus on the Calgary Stampede and making sure it goes ahead...

A thread.

@jkenney has made a really big deal about making sure that The Calgary Stampede is a thing this year.

/1

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
We recently saw the bizarre introduction of Rodeo (which is actually a wide variety of sports) being declared the official sport of Alberta.

So why all of the attention?

There’s a lot of possible reasons...

/2
It’s no secret that there’s a lot of money involved. It’s also no secret that the Stampede is where a lot of politicians shake hands and make big bank.

To say nothing of the incredible money that gets made.

From the DM’s...

As an update to our thread yesterday on inconsistent vaccine administration, here’s what we’ve learned.

To start with, the criteria for who gets shots and when seems to vary wildly from location to location.

/1

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
We have heard multiple reasons why “expired” vaccine is being available. Missed appointments, extra doses out of vials, vaccine becoming expired because of time out of refrigeration just being a few.

But there is excess vaccine available.

/2
While it appears that many pharmacies are following guidelines & trying to ensure that near-expired vaccine is being given to people in groups 2B or who are also at higher risk, one thing is clear.

It is also being given to people who are healthy/have no health conditions.

From the DM’s...

Apparently there are #yyc Shoppers Locations that are giving out vaccines regardless of age or medical condition as many that they were shipped are about to expire.

Hey real journalists, you should probably tag in here...

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Worth noting, we tried calling one of the locations, but were unable to get through as their phone lines are completely jammed...
Reviving multiple DM’s that this is confirmed.
