Why did @jkenney and his corrupt @UCPCaucus hire an American to look over the AB curriculum? It all goes back to their ties to Koch Industries. https://pressprogress.ca/kenney-government-appointed-foreign-koch-funded-researcher-to-rewrite-albertas-education-curriculum/
Koch industries donate heavily to libertarian "think tanks" like the Fraser Institute. Same Institute met with UCP before the election with their Alberta Prosperity Report. It outlines what we should expect the party to push. https://rabble.ca/blogs/bloggers/pulpit-and-politics/2019/09/death-david-koch-reminder-who-bankrolls-canadas-right
With a little research you can see the deep ties they have with Alberta conservatives. With the corrupt UCP you always follow the money. Any policy, information shared and not shared, hires, who they give contracts to... https://canadiandimension.com/articles/view/the-koch-brothers-and-the-tar-sands
The Koch Institute through their Manhattan Institute held the event An Evening with Jason Kenney in Sept 2019. https://www.jacobinmag.com/2020/11/jason-kenney-austerity-united-conservative-party-alberta-canada
Ashley Burner, the American hired to oversee the new curriculum, said she didn't know @jkenney and was contacted by @AdrianaLaGrange but her research was paid for by Koch industries so she got paid either way.
@AdrianaLaGrange has her own connection to Koch Industries through the anti-abortion group RightNow, who helped to get your nomination into the UCP. RightNow recieves training and support from Koch group, Leadership Institute.
In 2018 @jkenney told "the Washington, DC-based Daily Caller he would rewrite Alberta’s school curriculum and bring in “a robust system of school choice,” a dog whistle for subsidizing private religious schools with public tax dollars" https://pressprogress.ca/jason-kenney-tells-american-pro-trump-website-he-would-allow-free-votes-on-abortion-restrictions/
I say it again and again, never think the @UCPCaucus or @jkenney or @AdrianaLaGrange or any of the other MLA are doing anything for Alberta. They had a set, paid for agenda coming in and we are their libertarian experiment.
