Were Jason Kenney captain of the Titanic instead of Premier of Alberta, he would have effectively made the decision to steer full speed into the iceberg. Having decided economic livelihood trumps actual human life, the government has done the bare minimum (his words, not mine), to control Covid19 […]
Too often I see responses like “only X is at risk for severe outcomes” to Covid numbers. It’s not completely untrue, even though it is a shocking dismissal of our neighbours. Alberta is seeing a steady rise in infections, hospitalizations, and admittance to intensive care units. In the […]
For months the UCP has steadfastly insisted that the spread of Covid19 would not take precedence over the protection of the economy. Through the course of the summer where distancing was easier and prior to the return of school and more regular work schedules, that approach was moderately […]

After ten days hiding from accountability and doing his job, like a groundhog Jason Kenney emerged from his hibernation today to deliver a verdict on Alberta’s future. One would have hoped that the Premier would see the dark shadows his inaction and lack of leadership have cast on […]
Alberta is certainly a leader in Canada, but not in the way the UCP had likely envisioned. With two consecutive days over 1500 cases, including surpassing Ontario and Quebec in absolute numbers of new and active cases, this wasn’t what the UCP hoped their personal responsibility mantra would […]
