Essentially, the #UCP govt is going to liquidate our parks, watersheds, forests, and other public goods and transfer the proceeds to private interests. Then they& #39;ll all leave town. 1/n #abpoli #ableg

Those who are opposing this looting and pillaging of our province--which will leave future generations impoverished in every sense--are labelled "extremist agitators and malcontents" by #UCP flacks 2/n

like the MLA who roused well enough to read a speech in the #ableg today. Mr. "there is no climate crisis" calls for expanding the use of fossil fuels and petrochemicals. Oddly, he stopped short of demanding that #Alberta schools 3/n

replace evolutionary biology in their curriculum with creationism. Some sharp issues manager must have caught that one. Good thing there& #39;s so many of them, because they also have to staff the FB and Twitter pages the #UCP created 4/n

to spread misinformation and conspiracy theories and make up phoney grassroots groups to make it look like there is support in #Alberta for the govt& #39;s privatization of health care. 5/n

So really, you know, no reason to be all malcontenty, eh, Albertans? It& #39;s not like we should expect to have a gov& #39;t that tells the truth, protects our environment, or cares about our well-being and that of future generations, is it? 6/6
