You would have to not like yourself to jump into these positions. There’s no possible positive outcome here. Just watch.
Not surprised. Must be difficult to work for an entity such as the UCP which has no regard for our health system, or for the people it's trying to save. This is what happens when you vote in people like Kenney and Smith. Who care more about lining the pockets of their friends.
Good. After that pandemic scam.. They need to go!
Good riddance … part of the problem.
I suspect this is a reflection of how undesirable of a population we are to work for.
Bye Bye
UCP's Alberta.
New gov’t wrecking things because it got into power by pandering to an inflamed base that wants to see those things wrecked. It happens a lot.
so two more people that were part of the problem - good
Probably for the best. They were part of the team that failed Albertans during covid, were aligned to Hinshaw and Yu. Possible it was a 'quit or be fired' scenario.
Jason Copping and his party are destroying our health care system.
Another resignation ! The Premier Smith will probably nominate one of her best friends. 🙄
