As of Tuesday, those who were elected to form Alberta’s next government began with a new slate; not a clean slate but a new one. Let the past inform the present but only Kenney knows what he has in store for Alberta. One Ministry to watch is Education. […]
Here in Alberta, we’ve been watching the fallout from the SNC-Lavalin case and the Russian collusion cases from afar but we’re about to get our own front row seats. Alberta is getting its own Jody Wilson-Raybould or should I say Jeff Sessions? Wilson-Raybould was put into a position […]
