In the past 12 hours, @LukaszukAB has posted two emails sent out from 2 Islamic schools in #YEG.

Strap in!

(This thread is gonna get wild because it does have direct connections to the Skybox scandal by the way)

One of the posts is from the Al Mustafa Acadamy.

Their secretary treasurer appeared with Demetrios Nicolaides on April 26th of this year endorsing the new UCP curriculum.

That secretary Treasurer is also the Vice President and COO of an organization called Hasco Development Corporation.

/2Image
Image
Image
Hasco Development bought the site for the Al Mustafa School in 2010 from the Catholic School District.

The president and founder of Hasco is also the founder and board chair of Al Mustafa.

His name is Syed Hasan.

/3 Image
Hasco isn't done with the site though.

They have ambitions, big ones.

In fact, they want to flip the entire vacant school field to high density condos and are currently petitioning for a re-zoning.

/4 Image
Anyways, here's Syed at a recent UCP Town Hall event at Al Mustafa Academy.

Got to sit beside her, go onstage and everything!

/5 Image
Image
Back to the COO though.

His name is Advil Hasan.

He recently hosted Danielle Smith at that same leadership town hall event.

And he legit hosted it. He's the dude on stage.

So it's safe to say that there's interests here.

The second school is the Edmonton Islamic Academy.

It didn't take our scrappy little team of upstarts to find this video.

Note the thanks on the description.

/7 Image
It seems that the Mraiche Family loaned the Edmonton Islamic Academy their Bentley for the opening sequence!

So it's safe to assume some connections...

Why is the Mraiche name Familiar?

By now, there should be a bunch of reasons!

Let's start with the obvious ones...

/8 Image
Sam Mraiche runs MHCare.

You know, the company that has been identified as importing the masks that have healthcare workers skin irritation and were identified at the start of the pandemic?

So much so docs wrote an open letter to Shandy?

/9 Image
Image
Sam Mraiche gained additional notoriety as the importer of the Turkish Tylenot that saw Albertan's pay upwards of $100,000,000 for off brand childrens meds that put newborns at risk and which Alberta only distributed 13,700 bottles despite paying up front.

/10 Image
Most recently, Sam Mraiche was famous for hosting MLA's, Ministers and Staffers in his Skybox during playoffs.

Oh, and travelling to Vancouver to hang out in Sam Jabber's Vancouver Skybox with Smith and staff, which Smith and Co have gone to great lengths to cover up.

/11 Image
Hey, does The Edmonton Islamic Academy have any any plans for schools in the future that might be able to access the funds that Smith recently announced?

According to their letter and their website, they sure do!

/12 Image
Image
Image
And yes, that school does plan on (appropriately) having a prayer hall.

This means that the if the Edmonton Islamic School does take part in the Smith's new infrastructure plan, the province would indeed own private places of worship.

/13 Image
So to wrap all of this up...

The two Muslim schools that are pushing parents to attend the UCP to support Smith have significant prior relationships with Smith. They have some deeply problematic connections to business deals that have cost Albertans a LOT of taxpayer money.

/14
In some capacity, both schools have business relationships that are both complex and problematic.

And someone appears to be offering to pay for a HUGE number of memberships, tickets to the AGM and transportation.

/15
How this is not a violation of multiple finance laws is certainly up for debate.

But this appears to be yet another chapter in the influence peddling that Danielle Smith has allowed to infiltrate the UCP and the Alberta Government.

/16
Postscript - The COO of Hasco and The Secretary Treasurer of Al Mustafa is ADIL HASAN.

Our apologies we missed the autocorrect to "Advil".

Can't edit threads.

Our bad there.

The official UCP policy proposals that membership will be voting on are out!

And yes!

They're exactly as bad as you might think!

Let's get started with a Mega thread of "Wait, what?!?'

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

/1 Image
First up we have in True MAGA fashion the banning of all Diversity, Equity and Inclusion principles in hiring for any public body!

So if a white man has a more extensive academic history, he could be the person to address the experiences of women and girls in residential schools!

Fun!

/2Image
Doesn't take very long to get to the anti-trans bigory though!

Policy #3 wants to ensure that gender is assigned at conception and that you're only allowed into the spaces that fit that!

From the DM’s…

Danielle Smith has brought Jennifer “poop cookies” Johnson into the UCP caucus.

But that’s not the only thing that Smith has validated.

It’s also apparently conspiracy theories about cat litter, abortion & the belief there should be NO sex Ed in schools.

/1
The entire audio was recently made available to us.

We have not edited it in any way from what was sent to us.

It may also be worth highlighting that former TBA organizer Zane Novak can be heard speaking throughout the entire 1:11:06 file.

/2
In other segments of the audio, Johnson advocates for increased home school funding and claims that well in advance of the election she had a long standing relationship with Smith and prior to the scandal was tasked by Smith to look at education funding.

New episode & new FOIP!

We continue to unpack Smith's Skybox Scandal, and it keeps getting worse!

Back in July, the Globe & Mail referenced a statement from Smith's office saying the trip was personal, on personal time & everyone paid their own way...

/1


#abpoli #cdnpoli Image
We filed a FOIP wanting to confirm that.

Especially given that accepting the tickets for Smith's staffers Rebecca Polak and Marshall Smith seemed to be a clear violation of ethics rules.

/2 Image
And boy did we get a response!

Not only were the rooms for Becca and Marshall booked by the government, they were initially paid for by the government using taxpayer dollars!

As Brian Jean is busy getting ready to give oil companies breaks on municipal taxes & apparently even go so far as having taxpayers cover cleanup costs on abandoned wells…

He seems to be ignoring a pretty big problem in his own back yard…

Thread!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli Image
The workers, educational assistants, librarians, IT workers, custodians, maintenance workers & other support staff have been pleading for their wages to cover the cost of living.

The employer, under the direction of the government has said “ok, but what about wage cuts”

/2
No, for real.

From the above story…

Included in the UCP policy proposals are a slough of anti-trans, anti-LGBTQ2S+ policies.

We didn't want them missed, or the willingness for some members of the UCP to violate charter rights and parental rights glossed over, so it's a separate thread.

And it's bad.

To start with, Calgary Lougheed (surprise surprise) steps up to the plate banning anyone other than "biological females at conception" from "female spaces.

/2 Image
Cardston Siksika evidently believes that there's rampant nudity and sexually explicit material being funded by taxpayers that kids are exposed to...

Unless of course, this is coded language for drag shows and pride parades...

Oh boy...

So the UCP policy proposals have launched.

And...

There's a LOT to unpack.

So as the UCP membership show us who they are, let's get started with a few highlights, shall we?

Thread!

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
Let's start with defunding abortion!

Because the folks in Athabasca-Barrhead-Westlock want to put themselves in the doctors offices of women across the province!

/2 Image
Next up is a team effort from Athabasca-Barrhead-Westlock and Red Deer South to ensure that CO2 is no longer designated as a pollutant and Netzero is abandoned!
