    It’s ok because he’s conservative. Conservatives are above the law and exempt from all policies and norms of society, remember?

    Glad to see their phoney witch hunt s off to an honest start

    No good that instead of copying Quebec on constitutional firewalls Alberta opts to copy Quebec liberals on petty good ol' boy things like Adscam, Shawinigate, and SNC Lavalin. Heads should roll, but it appears that we're heading down a MAGA/Liberal-style path of corruption no matter how much most of us don't want to go that way. :|

    It can be both. Sole sourcing a contract, and giving it to a family member.

    Allison Redford recieved an RCMP investigation when she did this to her ex Husbands' firm. Will Albertan's even know about it?

    And bless the CBC for keeping the UCP government on their toes. No one else seems to be.

    They'll know about it, even if the likes of the SUN or The Rebel try to bury it. As per the recent and ongoing examples of MAGA and Trudeau though the fans of Kenney and the UCP simply won't care, because "they're OUR GUYS, damn you!". :|

    Not the sort of thing I enjoy being correct about. :|
