Critics argued Kenney didn’t apologize, rather sorry people were offended. 🤦🏻♂️

5. Ooof!
Despite Kenney’s bravado that Alberta is the “destination of choice for Canadian’s to relocate”, a new poll suggests less than half (49%) would feel “comfortable” living in Alberta under Jason Kenney and the UCP.

This one is the worst yet;
13. As highlighted by the incredible @ntighe, the UCP broke their promise to provide funding to victims of crime in 2022.
