1. 2021-22 Benga Mines application to operate an open pit mines was REJECTED 2X over concerns of the massive environmental damage they’d cause

It was so bad that UCP Enviro Minister, Sonya Savage, put a moratorium on future applications

It’s been 7-days.

@rebeccakschulz continues to hide from Albertans as her husband is paid by O&G to convince Rebecca to change 5 laws environmental laws and protected areas

Let’s explore Alberta’s Conflict of Interest act, simplified for Rebecca

Rebecca - take notes📝 Image #Ableg

1. Are MLA’s allowed to personally benefit from legislative decisions?

- NOPE! 🚫

The Act says Members MUST NOT participate in decisions that MAY benefit themselves, their partners, their associates, or their children.

Danielle Smith broke a MAJOR promise announcing her intent to steal from the CPP and illegally create an APP.

This is part of her “Free Alberta Strategy”; a document focused on ushering in Alberta separation.

Let’s look at what her dangerous plan entails:

#Abpoli Image 1. The Alberta Sovereignty Act

This act attempted to illegally circumvent the Canadian Constitution by claiming Danielle had more power than the federal gov’t on taxation, pipeline approvals and environmental laws.

Danielle was forced to water this her original act. Image

Alberta is on fire.

Alberta had one of the BEST wildfire programs in the world until 2019.

Despite MULTIPLE warnings, the @Alberta_UCP cut TENS of MILLIONS from firefighting programs.

We’re now seeing the consequences

Let’s review 6 MAJOR UCP wildfire cuts! Image #Ableg 🔥 🧵

1. The UCP Eliminated the 63-man Aerial Rapattack Team

This early intervention squad had a 94% success rate containing fires <2 hectares

Municipalities BEGGED the UCP to keep them; the UCP chose to save a messily $1.4M instead (ONLY 4% of the UCP War Room budget) Image
