That's total BS and you know it. She can't hide from the photos of her protesting pipelines as recently as 2013. She's spent most of her adult life protesting Alberta's industry. Her narrative changed out of necessity only when she assumed the position of Alberta Premier. Holy smokes do you ever have your head buried in sand lol.

To be fair, if people aren't allowed to change, Kenney and his stance on gays sure as fuck hasn't changed then. Or has it to fit a narrative?

Notley was handed all the info in the world from vivian Krause who's been investigating the money being given to charities in Canada who's only goal is to shut the oil sands down.

Notley has refused to meet with this researcher. Notley was advised she should hire legal lawyers to address this yet shes not acted.... the tar sands campaigns only goal is to land lock Alberta oil and notley was given all the evidence in the world to deal with this and notley has refused to address this.

Tell me again how notley is standing up for Alberta again? Is this what a good leader would do??? I thought she was fighting for our interests????

Danielle Smith (former Wildrose party leader) qualified her as Lougheed style leader. That says fucking a lot from a former Wildrose Leader. Notely is well respected

And then walked that back and apologized a couple of days later for making that comparison.

I don’t think Kenney was prepared for Charles Adler to come at him like this.

Exactly my point when I say most UCPs are ideologues. UCPs ideologues think she's with Trudeau but she showed she wasn't. UCPs make shit up.

Quote from article - “I look for a government that has the same interest that I do, and my interest is Alberta first,” he said. Notely is and showed she is Alberta first

I want everyone to notice I'm not pro-NDP, but pro-Notley (there's a huge difference).

I agree that Notley is the far better leader and I would like to see what she can do with 4 more years. I never in a million years would have thought I would vote for the NDP but I will be in this election.

Add an extra digit to Provincial debt is my guess.

Kenney knows that it's a sure thing out of Drayton just by having a UCP candidate in place, and if he removes him, he can't replace him with a new candidate. Morals-smorals

People seem to forget that when the goverment is spending money they are spending it within the province and the money is going to the people who live here...

This is the usual left wing fallacy. Out of all this extra spending what do us Albertans actually get as an extra benefit? Our healthcare is no better, education is no better, roads don't seem any better. Nothing is better, so where is the money coming back to us that they stole out of our pockets to begin with? Rhetorical question obviously, as the spending is all bureaucracy and increasing government, which has zero benefit to the people.

No, there actually isn't. Just because Notley has put lipstick on the pig pretending to suddenly do a complete 180 and be pro oilsands, conveniently all leading up to an election in a province that is notoriously pro oil. Does not mean she doesn't still align with the socialist policies of the NDP. If you support her personally, you're supporting an economic suicide party by default.

Here - she's against Bill c69 - https://globalnews.ca/news/5008504/a...ate-bill-c-69/ I'm sure she put thought into every decision.

Can't win against ideologue. Cognitive dissonance and tribal thinking that lets to stupid ass identity politics. & by the way, federally I'm conservative. I've always been conservative. But Notely is too good of a leader to not vote in.

Can you please stop quoting "identity politics" if you don't know what it means.

WTF!! This is crazy! Are you an omnipresent being that follows her and reads her inner thoughts? LOL!! You sound like a conspiracy theorist!

I've giving you multiple sources of her pro-pipeline, anti-bill c69, and pro-Alberta. All i'm saying is she is a great leader that definitely deserves a second term. Vote Notely if you want great leadership that will direct Alberta in the best way. She has an holistic perspective and decision-making that a lot of leaders don't have. Like I said, I'm not pro-NDP, I'm pro-Notely.

lol. How are you going to accuse someone else of reading Notleys mind, when you're the one ignoring all the facts and claiming to know what she is thinking despite what her actions tell us?

News flash!!! Politicians say things that aren't true to get elected. Welcome to politics. You're either very young or very naïve. Notley can SAY whatever she wants, but literally less than 30 days ago they appointed Ed Whittingham(a known anti-alberta oil activist) to the AER. How absolutely blind does a person have to be to think Notley has the Alberta oil industrys best interest in mind?

And even if this fairy tale were true and the NDP was championing the oil industry, so is the UCP. So might as well flip a coin if that's all you care about and you're deluded enough to believe Notleys political pandering. But I'd suggest caring about something other than oil, the NDP's policies thus far have certainly not been good ones. But you're going to support those hurtful policies just because you believe the Notley lies?

I can form my own opinions. I'm not interested in anyone's opinion, especially Danielle Smith's.

FTFY

Speaking of people who are willing to betray their principals for “power”

No, because its at the provincial/state level that its a problem, as Mr. Mintz points out.

It could be cross posted, but its not relevent until the Federal election.

LOL. If you want to alienate people and cause them to forever reject your stance by default, running your mouth with this type of bullshit will do the trick. Keep it up

[gwill]

hah it was a bit extreme but plunging us into never ending debt will have consequences. Maybe if we borrow enough money and have so much debt that we will become a have not province and can collect equalization payments to cover our services.

Maybe that's notleys plan.

Why is it those who support notley get all defensive when people disagree with how shes run the province. Those who support notley cant say anything negative about her. Shes done no wrong and is nothing short of perfect.

This is just as bad of an extreme from those with their blinders on.

LOL what world do you live in, mate? Notely receives plenty of criticism from both sides of the spectrum.

NDP supports are defensive because UCP supporters jump down their throats. Look at the conversation here. It's a bunch of people calling each other idiots. Wow, what a conversation.

"You're supporting economic suicide!". LOL STFU with that bullshit.

Newsflash: we're all fucking idiots. We are choosing between a turd sandwich and a giant douche. And the douche and turd sandwich have convinced us that we ought to be at each others throats over it.

The quote above is a prime example what I'm talking about. Who's wearing blinders, again?

Seems to be working for the other provinces? What other then a fuzzy feeling does a surplus or balanced budget actually bring me other then a ralph-buck check again?

The only way for Alberta to receive equalization is for every person in Alberta to be half as productive as they are now. Debt levels have nothing to do with it.

If you feel supporting Notley and supporting the NDP are majorly different things, then by all means feel free to explain.

If you're talking strictly about the economic suicide comment. Well if people reject my stance because of reality, that says more about them than it does about me. Maybe you've heard of a place called Europe? How are those record debt level government policies doing for them? Greece is basically bankrupt, their economy is completely fucked. These sort of policies have only one likely conclusion, and it is economic failure.
