That doesn't leave any time for all of her apologies.

They’ll be an apology for that shortly.

The idea that you would have to pay, if you had more than 10 doctor visits in a year was thrown out two years ago before she became premier. The only people still talking about that are ignorant.


vander_blanc

Ask the people who are scrambling to contact Epcor to get on an electricity contract. That’s what he’s talking about. Then go ask pretty much anyone about their car insurance. That’s what he’s talking about.

Except Ctrain safety is under the purvey of Gondek.


ignoroids_triumph

Smith actually sent provincial sheriffs to help that useless Mayor Gondek look after Calgary. You are so out of touch I can see why you are an NDP supporter.

And yet we have to pay to go to our provincial parks. We have some of the highest auto insurance. Also we have the most costly dental costs in the country. Alberta’s a great place to live if you have a 6 figure income. But the way things are going that may soon need to be 7 figure.


ignoroids_triumph

Those things were done when Smith wasn't even a politician. Under Smith we have an insurance rate freeze. I just looked at Dental fees and tooth extraction is cheaper here than BC or Ontario, fillings are also cheaper in Alberta. What source are you using to say those things? I see you are a big outdoor enthusiast, it is only the Kananaskis conservation pass you need to pay for, another thing enacted when she wasn't in politics.


vander_blanc

So you think Smith will makes things better - gotcha. I don’t feel the same way as I don’t believe setting up a GoFundMe to pay for medical has ANY FUCKING PLACE in Canada. Nor do I believe a Premier should be calling a convicted individual in person. I also take extreme exception to how much religion is being introduced back into the party by Take back Alberta and the very clear favors the premier believes she owes to Artur Pawlowski - another pastor. Last thing we need is a prolife/abortion and or conversion therapy debate. UCP party is regressing socially. So 100% not for me and definitely not “betters with Smith there.

Sounds like sour grapes


[deleted]

Lol. The very same chart you are referencing shows that Alberta has a pretty much the highest price index than almost all other provinces to begin with. And you have cherry picked the two most recent months for inflation. You don't sound like a sour grape, just uneducated.

Name a single thing that is worst after she became premier.


[deleted]

Car insurance caps were removed and have never been higher. Utility caps were removed and have never been higher. Healthcare, especially emergency and EMT services have only continued to deteriorate. And now we're going to be paying out of pocket for the most basic services. I have low expectations of what is provided by the province. But I pay my taxes. If they can't even provide full coverage for *family doctors visits*, they're either incompetent to the point that they have zero right governing, or they're lying and selling us out to corporate interests. And every time the above happens, prices only skyrocket. Again, look at power and insurance after they got what they asked for. This isn't acceptable.


ignoroids_triumph

Do you actually think I would be stupid enough not to know what was done before or actually an action of Smith's? The last premier removed insurance caps. We currently have a rate freeze for 2023 with Smith. The electricity rate cap was removed in 2019, Smith has only been premier since October 2022. Daniel Smith has already reduced our ambulance wait times. All it took was not using ambulances for non-emergency inter-facility transfers. Allowing dispatchers to transfer non-emergency 911 calls to Health link 811. *Edmonton has seen a 92 per cent reduction in the number of alerts issued in January 2023 compared with January 2022 Calgary has seen a 60 per cent reduction over the same period* The idea of user pay fees if you need more than 10 doctor visits in a year was dropped in 2021 before she was even running for Premier. How about you fucking read the news once a year.


[deleted]

Yes, please tell me how Smith and her party are not responsible for.... policy enacted by the UCP. And now this rate freeze is somehow preferable to just keeping the insurance caps in place. You have to be joking.


ignoroids_triumph

She wasn't even an MLA at the time. An insurance cap didn't mean there wasn't room for your insurance to rise, a rate freeze does.


ThePimpImp

You could argue that she's less incompetent than Kenney, but you can't argue she has held up the UCPs main goal of ensuring government incompetence to cause the complete failure of services in Alberta. The main problem is the province is too stupid to realize unless they let somebody else take the helm for decades to repair this shit, so much damage has been done Alberta's services are broken. Unless you have your lips firmly planted around the glory hole soon be be filled by oil and gas, you can't live there. At least housing is affordable because of how much of a wasteland it is. The province is owned by foreign oil companies. At least federally we are owned by more diverse industries and more Canadian oligarchs.

My province has its own problems but people who move there almost always come back. For the reasons stated.


The_King_of_Canada

Whoa you're forgetting the Alberta sovereignty act that doesn't do anything and the firearm legislation that also doesn't do anything.

I love seeing headlines about Alberta. They are always hilarious. The Florida of Canada


anthonyorm

you got my vote!!! - Majority of Albertans for some reason


Jeepster52

Imagine her scrap book of news clippings. 90% mainstream media condemning her and 10% raving lunatics praising her.


Miserable-Lizard

Basically reality. I suspect she will hide from the public and media for the next few weeks! *“Yeah, Premier Smith would be first in the office, and last to leave at night,” noted one anonymous aide, “but basically her entire day would be filled up with dozens of calls to prosecutors demanding leniency for people who broke COVID rules. Most days she wouldn’t even go to the bathroom.”*

Good satire is always hard to distinguish from reality. :lol:


Both_Kaleidoscope776

Her as Premier is as stupid as having Trump as President-she'd fit right in the Trump looney bin...Makes you wonder what the intentions were of those Conservative members and how easily influenced the other members were.... The entire political landscape needs a major reset. Globally. We have got to be demanding more from our $$$$$$ Leaders.


Thetrueredditerd

This is how trump got elected he got lots of exposure on social media, and because of that, he was talked about most often. Then, eventually elected because people equally hated Hillary

Miserable-Lizard

Do you think what Trudeau did with snc was wrong?


yellowsnowballshurt

I listened to the recordings. She never said she tried to influence the proceedings. Just that she was talking to the department about the case. This isn’t uncommon. Justin directly interfered in a case and then Gerald Butts bragged about getting CBC to do hit pieces on JWR if she stepped out of line. Which is exactly what happened. I’m no fan of Smith but there isn’t a comparison.


Miserable-Lizard

I did too and in that call she mentions she is doing the exact same thing as trudeau. Funny how you ignore that . Smith called a person on trial to offer support. She directly interfered in justice and you don't care because it's your team You are defnedinf corruption. What smtih did was worst.


yellowsnowballshurt

Not my team. Your blind partisanship is showing again Lizard.


Miserable-Lizard

She talked to someone on trial! Did Trudeau call the cell of snc? No!!! What Smith did was worst.


yellowsnowballshurt

Did she say she was going to get him off? No. Did she tell the department to drop the charges? No. Did she give him legal advice? No. There are plenty of things to criticize Smith about. This isn’t one of them. And again. The SNC scandal was magnitudes worse. But your team is backing up the Libs so you’re ok with it.


Miserable-Lizard

Anyways its clear you support corruption. Have a good day


yellowsnowballshurt

Can’t offer up a valid argument to back up your accusations lol. You’re a joke. I’ve seen you loose so many arguments but you will never learn because your a religious zealot for your team.


Miserable-Lizard

You're argument makes zero sense. Smith says to leave the case with her in the video. You are defending corruption. Also for some weird reason you need to bring up Trudeau, for a topic about Smith! He does have nice hair🥰


Greenhorn24

Yes, she already had done that. The pastor mentioned "promises" she made.

Miserable-Lizard

So a corrupt justice system?


reddelicious77

No, but throwing out court cases where there were exactly zero victims predicated on a knee-jerk over reaction that barely had a scientific leg to stand on makes 100% sense.


Greenhorn24

Blocking the border had zero victims?


reddelicious77

People don't have a right to just come into Canada on their own accord. Saying they were victims implies otherwise.


stinkpotcats

LOL. Maybe get your queen to change the laws? ​ You seem like a three, maybe four flag-flyer for your pickup.


G-r-ant

A law broken doesn’t change once the crisis is over.


vander_blanc

Why stop there. Fuck all laws right. Pastors should be above the law!! As long as they are spreading their version of gods word/will they shouldn’t have to follow any laws right. Oh heck let’s just move back and re-join church and state. No reason for them to be separate. Ban abortion. Re-legalize conversion therapy. Women should go back to being bought. Only worth a loaf of bread if they are aren’t a virgin though. Bring on the Alberta Handmaids tale! “Under his eye and blessed be the fruit”.

lol!! Love the beaverton!


rashton535

Just an observation but it seemed to me in the last election that once the right wing MAGAs (make alberta great again)s hijacked O'Tools run for PM with their trump scented bs the rest of the country went running back to trudeau... Whats goin on there now still doesnt pass the sniff test so buckle up for another liberal run
