Sun-soaked vacations show why Albertans need recall legislation
Albertans have every right to hate the hypocrisy coming from United Conservatives who locked the province down and decided to vacation abroad.
The government just plunged Alberta into its second lockdown. Families spent the holidays apart. Businesses shut down and some may never again open their doors. Many workers are taking pay cuts to help keep businesses afloat and many are losing their jobs.
Although UCP politicians are urging Albertans to “stay home save lives,” we now find out that political staffers, MLAs and at least one minister have been travelling abroad.
Albertans have every right to be angry, but the key question is how we should deal with these hypocritical politicians.
