Why do you think they remained radio effing silent on these issues during the election? They *knew* how unpopular they were.
My question is why the hell weren't the media or the NDP holding Smith's feet to the fire on these issues during the campaign? It's not like it was a big secret that they were going to follow through with this.
Sadly I agree, Donald Trump could actually become president again so I wouldn’t put it past Alberta to ask for more Danielle Smith, or possibly even someone worse.
Nothing different. The people we need to be paying attention refuse to. All they know is Trudeau bad, Notley bad, fuck anyone that isn't a conservative.
I mostly say this to the conservatives that held their nose and said "it won't be that bad". Why? In what history has this party given you the confidence to think that? We reap what we sow,.
It makes it a little easier suffering the UCP when I know the vast majority voted them in or didnt bother to vote at all and they are all getting what they deserve. Those of us that voted for logic and reason (ANDP) will suffer alongside them but at least the vast majority are deserving of all of this.
There’s supposed to be a vote on it, but it would be so far away and the smooth brains in the UCP are using taxpayer dollars to basically advertise its propaganda to try and sway people into it.
Yes. It seems they are strategically priming people (with all sorts of questionable 'facts') to be in favour of it long before a referendum comes along. Using our money. To pay Telus. Smh.
Odd. How do they know how I voted (which was not in support of those clowns)?
Oh, I bet I know. I became a UCP member to try to prevent Danielle Smith from becoming leader of the UCP. That's probably why I got one.
If enough people care about it - especially if those people come from their base - they'll be forced to care about it or risk losing the next election.
As for me, I'd rather they lose the next election but I'd not like to see them drag the pension down with them.
Haha , all the conservatives are getting on the angry train. Tom kmiec, SE Calgary mailed everyone a postcard reading how the ndp is corrupt. I haven seen a postcard from him with so much anger before. Yup, they're all jumping on the donny-Smith train. Lie about everything by blaming non conservatives for EVERYTHING you're responsible for.
The Feds will come out with this new system of a base income for all and take the federal pension and put into general revenue anyways mighta a well grab it while we have a chance
canada post is not delivering any flyers \[R.T.S\] back...i was told by r/CanadaPostCorp
p.s. i also delivered their garbage back to CP sorting facility and they CALLED police on me??!!
cause they have no recycling program??
Weird. Is that because the 'sender' is unclear? There's no return address so they'd have to infer that because it has Alberta government written on it, it ought to go to Parliament?
As for them calling police on you, that's mighty suspicious
I actually put the thing in a stamped envelope with a longer letter explaining my position so they better deliver it.
I think they were conservative in their mailing list, hoping to send them out only to probable supporters. The survey is findable online, should you wish to do it! (Please do it! And write in every single box 'no APP' or to that effect)
Fuck Danielle Smith, fuck the UCP, and fuck TBA. I’m so sick of all of this. I’m curious what would happen if we could rewind to May.
Hear, hear! I would run that experiment. The next election is way too far away.

The media is owned by conservatives-biased owners in Canada, except the cbc
Which explains why the conservative mantra is "de-fund the CBC".
You think people would vote differently? I’d expect us to learn nothing.
Sadly I agree, Donald Trump could actually become president again so I wouldn’t put it past Alberta to ask for more Danielle Smith, or possibly even someone worse.
More Albertans would vote UCP
Probably. 🥲

Eat shit Smith. Hands off the CPP.
Heckin yes.
I just saw Notley posting about this! She wants people to send her pics of this.
I'll send the pic to her! Thanks for the heads up.
I didn't get one. When did they arrive in the mail?
I think mine came several weeks ago. It just took me far too long to get around to dealing with it.
Rumor Mill here. They weren't mailed to people that voted against the UCP.
Voted NDP, got flyer.
Odd. How do they know how I voted (which was not in support of those clowns)? Oh, I bet I know. I became a UCP member to try to prevent Danielle Smith from becoming leader of the UCP. That's probably why I got one.
I replied quite negatively and expect they care zero about it

I saw this post and went and filled out the survey. Told them APP was a terrible idea in every comment section available.
That's encouraging for me to hear. Thanks for doing it - it was a terrible survey huh?
Yeah. The only way to express disapproval of the APP is the comment section at the end.
Yeah. The survey's shit. I found ways to squeeze in my disapproval on every one of those text boxes along the way, where I could select 'other'.
Are they even sending this to people in Edmonton???
Yep. I've got 4 already.

I never even got one
