Alberta NDP

Jason Kenney, ironically, seems determined to stand by what is arguably Rachel Notley's worst law while tearing up the good legislation her government passed.

If you were paying attention during the campaign, you've heard most of the United Conservative Party's first throne speech before. The interesting stuff was between the lines.

Alberta's 24 NDP Opposition MLAs were sworn in yesterday and Opposition leader Rachel Notley, not so long ago the province's premier, named the MLAs who will fill her shadow cabinet portfolios.

By the end of 2018, the only arrow left in the NDP's quiver was to attack the character of the UCP's leadership and the ugly instincts of the UCP base.

If Justin Trudeau were smart, he'd cancel the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project right now.

No one can say Kenney didn't communicate his plans clearly or that he doesn't have a mandate.

Alberta Premier Rachel Notley wants to make affordable child care "the medicare of the 21st century." UCP leader Jason Kenney wants to make schools safe for "basic religious freedom," meaning no GSAs.

Albertans looked to Rachel Notley to lead them through a transition, and somewhere along the way, industry convinced the government and the public alike that the transition needed was a pipeline.
