Ways in which UCP MLAs ‘listen’ to Albertans & their constituents:
-“I don’t have time to freelance for the whole province.”
-“If you don’t like it, vote me out next election.”
-ignore pleas from AISH recipients not to cut funds, change payment dates
1/
-ignore hundreds of doctors begging for stronger health measures in early November.
-belatedly impose stricter health measures, then head for the beach
-deny closing, delisting and selling off parks
-ignore letters from teachers about forcing ATRF to AIMCo
2/
-refuse to answer phone calls, e-mails or letters from constituents
-call the police if constituents show up at your office
-pass a bill with vague reference to ‘critical infrastructure’ that could prevent anyone from protesting anywhere, ever
3/
-get head Twitter troll to put ‘I ❤️ Oil & Gas’ posters in the #ableg window during a protest on environmental concerns
-literally hand out ear plugs when MLAs representing non-UCP ridings speak in the legislature
