Mega 🧵Part 3: This thread serves as a reminder of some of the flubs, missteps, & gaffs that characterized the “Rehn of Error” of the last 4 years under UCP rule. Many of these same duds are still around & running again under the UCP banner. #Ableg #Abpoli 1/x Image
Remember during the height of the pandemic with health restrictions in place that a number of entitled UCP MLAs ignored those restrictions and travelled anyway while you dutifully missed your holiday with loved ones? #Ableg #Abpoli ImageImage
Remember designated apologizer Rick McIver begging for forgiveness and saying that it is up to the people of Alberta to judge? Well, people of Alberta, now is the time. Fir, Stephen, & Jeremy Nixon are all running again. Time for them and the UCP to be judged. #Ableg #Abpoli
Remember the entitled white linen patio party at the Sky Palace during Covid restrictions & all the disingenuous denials afterwards? We all saw with our eyes what had happened. Now is the time for Jason Nixon, Shandro, & the UCP to be judged. #ableg #Abpoli Image
Remember the performative disaster that was the "Best Summer Ever" when daily COVID-19 case counts were spiking and deaths and hospitalizations were on the rise? Tyler Shandro was the Health Minister. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
Remember finding out later that the UCP cabinet was making health decisions based on ideology not health care professionals and how that violated the Public Health Act? This alone should be immediately disqualifying. #Ableg #Abpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ca… Image
Remember the utter embarrassment of the disingenuous UCP Pride Breakfast & the performative raising and then almost immediate lowering of the Pride Flag at the Legislature? Now is the time to be judged. #Ableg #Abpoli ImageImageImage
Remember when all of a sudden the UCP started talking about a Provincial Police Force. This was not in the UCP platform. Is it now? Who knows? Smith won’t even talk about it. Now is the time to judge. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
Remember the performative waste of time and money that was the election of "Senator" Barootes? How is that going anyway? The UCP were often more concerned with ideological games than governing. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
Remember the $1.3 Billion of taxpayer money wasted on a pipeline to nowhere? Well, we did get a couple of photo-ops out of it to be fair. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
Oh, and the UCP are the good fiscal managers right? #Ableg #Abpoli Image
There is so much more. More to come. The UCP are pretending that they have not been in power the last 4 years but they only changed their leader. The gang is all still there and the song remains the same. #Ableg #Abpoli Image

And now the 🧵 of 🧵s (Mega 🧵Parts 1-5). If you can make it through all of these threads and still vote UCP, I don't know what to say. Go out and vote like the future of Alberta is dependent on it because indeed it is. #Ableg #Abpoli #VoteNDP #FiretheUCP

Mega 🧵Part 5: This thread serves as a reminder of some of the opportunistic ideologues that aligned themselves under the UCP banner & their disastrous, often embarrassing actions over the past 4 years. Many of these dud MLAs are seeking re-election. #Ableg #Abpoli 1/x Image
This is Devin “Shields Up” Dreeshen. This spoiled privileged brat treated the Legislature like a frat party ultimately resigning his cabinet post after allegations of harassment & drunken binges. Reinstated by Smith as she though he was ministerial material. #Ableg #Abpoli ImageImage
BTW did he get away with travelling during Covid restrictions? Did the Kenney and the UCP cover for him while others took the fall? Doesn't look like St. Barts to me at all. #Ableg #Abpoli Image

Mega 🧵Part 4: This thread serves as a reminder of just some of the reasons as to why racialized Albertans should consider not voting for the UCP this election. #Ableg #Abpoli 1/x Image
Remember when during the height of Covid Kenney went on radio to blame the South Asian Community in Calgary for spreading Covid? #YYC #Ableg #Abpoli calgary.ctvnews.ca/calgary-s-sout…
Remember the lack of supports after the devastating hail storm in Calgary in 2020 and how systematic racism was blamed for these lack of supports? #YYC #Ableg #Abpoli cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…

Mega Thread Part 2: The quality of candidates that the UCP attract has always been suspect. Here is a trip down memory lane of some of the more heinous UCP candidates including racists, Nazis, and bigots (of various forms). #Ableg #Abpoli
Meet Myles Mcdougall. Myles stated that Black People Don’t Want Education And Live in “Ghetto Culture”. Myles is the current candidate for Calgary-Fish Creek. #Ableg #Abpoli #YYC timesofasia.ca/breaking-news/… Image
Meet Mark Mantei. Mark claimed that Muslims are the only group that engages in extremism and violence. pressprogress.ca/another-candid… Image

Mega 🧵 Part 1: The UCP have been in power the past 4 years. A reminder of the disaster that has been the past 4 years. 1st & foremost, their handling of Covid, the worst-rated response in the country, should be immediately disqualifying. #Ableg #Abpoli 1/x Image
Indeed, the worst-rated Covid response in the country. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
Remember when the UCP lied about rescinding the coal policy and only backtracked after a massive groundswell of opposition? Those coal projects are still on the books. #Ableg #Abpoli Image
