So, let me get this straight. @ABDanielleSmith believes that PMJT is over reaching by bypassing her because she won’t do what he wants. And now she is proposing to take over municipal councils if they don’t do what she wants. Make it make sense.
Reminder: the UCP's drift into authoritarianism is neither new nor normal. The volume & audacity of their misdeeds shouldn't lull Albertans into thinking that it’s politics as usual. Just because these episodes happen in plain sight doesn't excuse them. theconversation.com/democracy-itse…
🚨 Trustees must have the best interests of kids, not the best interests of their party! 📚 Education should be the top priority. Tell your MLA to keep political parties out of school board elections. 🛑 #KidsOverPolitics #Bill20 #ableg #abed
Let’s dig in to Staples’ nonsense. His argument is that ‘in the 2021 civic election there were 5 main candidates for Edmonton mayor, but only one of them, Amarjeet Sohi, was centre left. Each of the other 4 …were centre right.’ 1/

#Ableg Under the UCP, Alberta’s local municipalities & cities have seen: 🤫 O&G Companies evading $230 Million in property taxes 📉 A 50% reduction in infrastructure grants 🛑 Stripping localities of fair elections & bylaws The UCP is NOT grassroots populism; it’s autocracy
Bill 20 is serious. It is a dismantling of municipal authority. Elections and local democracies are being undermined by the province with zero forethought regarding the dangerous consequences down the road. Or maybe it is, and that is an even more deeply troubling thought.
The party of “freedom” is, once again, giving themselves power to unilaterally quash the freedom of Albertans — this time to choose their own municipal councillors and their preferred (non-partisan) approach to municipal government. cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…

Or in other words… the ability to deny and overturn the will of the people who voted for people and things in elections. This is anti-democratic BS.

I am getting confused, Alberta has a Ministry of Red Tape Reduction, the most Ministers of any Alberta Government and now they’re going to micro manage Edmonton and Calgary? Is this Libertarian Freedom Fascism? The freedom part appears to be the the province’s ability to meddle
This was a ridiculous bit of spin from the minister to defend his government's unpopular position on civic political parties. Apparently Calgary and Edmonton now represent 2% of Alberta. Laughable and infuriating at the same time. #ableg

"If conservatives become convinced that they cannot win democratically, they will not abandon conservatism. They will reject democracy.” —David Frum
The creeping authoritarianism in Alberta is beginning to roll.
Mic drop right here: "Indeed, Bill 18 is a childish overreach by an unserious government that is too captive to the ritual of belligerence to see how its own gravitational weight crushes those around it." edmontonjournal.com/opinion/column…
The UCP essentially just took away Albertans right to vote on the local level. If this doesn't infuriate you, you aren't paying attention.
.@ABDanielleSmith finally introduced a Bill that best displays her dictatorial bent. Alberta cities, towns and counties will be ruled out of the Legislature. Edmonton, under the dome, knows best what’s good for you underlings. You can have your local elections for fun. #ableg

A bill tabled in #ableg Thursday would give the province the right to fire councillors, overturn bylaws, postpone elections and allow political parties to run on municipal ballots in Edmonton and Calgary. #yeg #yegcc trib.al/h9f8JWl
Yesterday DEMOCRACY threatened by Smith & UCP in Alberta with Bill 20. I will be ruthless against Smith & UCP until government steps down or defeated. My Mother (RAF) & Father (RCAF) fought in WW2 to save DEMOCRACY. Alberta can’t allow Smith & 48 followers to Destroy Democracy!
Shaye is rarely this direct. Bullshit begets backlash. This Government needs to learn important lessons about fire and heat. (Political, not pyrotechnic.)
The disconnect here from the inability to act consistently and effectively to protect hospital inpatients causes me near physical pain. It's just so damned STUPID. 👇🤦
Went to visit my 80yo aunt in hospital today. She had a fall 8 weeks ago and has been moved from ICU, the general ward at public hosp and now to private rehab round the corner. Rang to say what time I’d be there and she told me there was covid on the ward. 1/
I am deeply concerned with the proposed changes outlined in Alberta’s Bill 20. This legislation is an attack on local democracy. #yegcc
I know that saying “I’m disappointed” are not strong enough words to describe what the Government of Alberta did to democracy today. Local autonomy is about to be shoved out the door. They want local governments to be an extension of the Premier’s rule. Ugly. Ugly. Ugly.
Must listen: @MarkConnollyCBC grills @RicMcIver over Bill 20, aka as the "UCP Municipal Dominance Act." @RicMcIver's gaslighting peak at 5:43 when he attempts to justify the elimination of vote tabulators to appease conspiracy theorists. cbc.ca/listen/live-ra…
Bill 20 is serious. It is a dismantling of municipal authority. Elections and local democracies are being undermined by the province with zero forethought regarding the dangerous consequences down the road. Or maybe it is, and that is an even more deeply troubling thought.
We live in a time that often reminds me of my childhood and of the stories my grandparents told me about their youthful days. Totalitarianism doesn’t begin with tear gas and gas chambers. It begins when we don’t pay attention to dismantling of democratic institutions. #cdnpoli
At a time when Albertans are struggling with so many real issues, the UCP have just introduced Bill 20, all about meddling in municipal politics. Bill 20 allows the UCP to remove any councillor, permits political parties at the municipal level, and more. Who is asking for this?
“It isn’t appropriate to speculate about an entire city council and its competence based on an anonymous letter with such tentative allegations,” #yeg #yegcc globalnews.ca/news/10448092/…
Watch the hypocrisy.. it's already out there. The same chuds claiming Trudeau is a dictator (in a minority govt lol) will have ZERO issues with Smith pushing ACTUAL tyrannny/dictatorial authority. It's fucking sick. This bill is horrendous and all sides should be screaming #ableg
I'm assuming there are a lot of Albertans who voted UCP without realizing they were going to attempt to take power over our municipal level of gov't. I hope these voters will get vocal and tell Smith and Co to get back in their lane.
I'm not angry at the media because they're bashing Trudeau / Liberals. Bash away. If there's a thing, go after it. I'm angry because they choose what we'll care about. I'm angry because they control the narrative. They're not a reflection of us, we're a reflection of them.
this is a direct attack on Edmonton for unequivocally rejecting the UCP & electing zero of their candidates here. can’t win an election? fine she’ll just appoint a council of her choosing
A bill tabled in #ableg Thursday would give the province the right to fire councillors, overturn bylaws, postpone elections and allow political parties to run on municipal ballots in Edmonton and Calgary. #yeg #yegcc trib.al/h9f8JWl
So, apparently there will be no more excuses for McIver to remove Sean Chu in Calgary, right? cbc.ca/news/canada/ca…
Are you going to include your govt’s measures to subvert democracy in the “civics” section of the poorly-written K-6 Social Studies curriculum, @demetriosnAB? I mean, why bother teaching civics if citizens don’t get to live it? #abed
"I'm left asking why they have inserted themselves into municipal government in a manner that actually strips the voting public's right to elect the council they deem to be the best to serve them." cbc.ca/news/canada/ed…
The ability to fire councilors already exists (see Chestermere), I would assume that this makes it easier. And would be used in very rare and exceptional circumstances - see Sean Chu.
