Alberta Party saw a spike in Google searches during and after leaders' debate

If lawn signs are any indication, I think the Alberta Party is going to pick up a few seats in Edmonton. In several ridings on my commute, their signs far outnumber NDP and in some cases, appear to outnumber UCP signs.

I'm seeing more than a few in my neighborhood.

Fraudulent emails used to cast votes in UCP leadership race, CBC finds

[Thanos]

It was basically a slam-dunk for Kenney, that he was going to win the leadership race. Brian Jean just wasn't dynamic enough and had too many knives out for him for supporting the PC/WRA merger. So why did Kenney and his people decide that, even with a sure win, they had to cheat any way they could to guarantee it? This is where the true problem lies with Kenney. He'll run his government in the exact same way he ran his leadership campaign, in the sleaziest and dirtiest manner imaginable just to deliver the "get 'er done!" that the no-minds who support him are demanding.

Trumpworld has come to Alberta. We are well and truly fucked.

Why did the scorpion sting the frog? It was his nature.

Let's just put our feet up and watch the province burn.

I was going to plant a couple cannabis plants, but now I might plant extra. Just for the lulz.

Watch him go full Bible Bill and implement every petty rule and regulation he can to vex the cannabis industry, just to placate the so-con crazies that make up so much of his base of support. He can't criminalize it because that's federal territory. Everything else though in terms of regulating growing and retail sales is in provincial jurisdiction which means a province can bring it to a standstill just out of sheer pettiness and for their own political gain among the nimrods.

One of my most favorite proverbs.

Why did the scorpion sting the frog?

Because the frog can jump and swim and the scorpion can only crawl and sting. Therefore even though the frog was a trusting and helpful fellow the scorpion had to kill him in the name of social justice and equality.

With the soaring valuation of pot stocks, that would be a very bad move indeed.

Worries about UCP leadership vote raised 2 months before Kenney declared leader

Leaked emails have revealed that concerns over the 2017 UCP leadership vote were raised with the party weeks before Jason Kenney clinched the top job.

The revelations come as the RCMP continue to investigate the race, which culminated with Kenney being declared leader of the UCP on Oct. 28, 2017.

In an email obtained by Global News, dated Aug. 26, 2017, Hamish Marshall, who served on Brian Jean’s leadership campaign, flagged concerns to the party’s lawyer and threatened to go public, even including a draft press release.

Marshall condemned the “complete absence of scrutineering opportunities in the qualifying and voting process.”

Marshall’s email was among a trove of communications leaked to media, including Global News, that show communications between the Kenney campaign and that of former candidate Jeff Callaway, who allegedly ran as a kamikaze candidate to take out Brian Jean. Callaway withdrew his candidacy part-way through the campaign and threw his support behind Kenney.

If Kenny wins his riding, and if the UCP wins Government; Alberta will get the government it deserves.

I don't buy into any of this white privilege crap. Old farts like this though? Yeah, there's definitely a privilege problem with too many of these permanently angry old fuckers who think they can do what they want even if they're breaking the law.
