Is Calgary Councillor Landon Johnston getting preferential treatment from the province because his chief of staff is Danielle Smith's bestie?

Is that why he got away with a slap on the wrist after leaking confidential documents?

We get into it tonight at 7 PM!

When a premier feels it’s appropriate to behave this entitled towards veterans?

On Remembrance Day?

Wow.

#abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli

[Robin Hoodlum @RobinHoodlum]

Oof. Sounds like Danielle Smith didn’t get the reception she’d hoped for at a Calgary Legion this Remembrance Day.

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Well if this goes as well as their municipal code of conduct project…

🧵In this new op-ed, @pinglamjoeip and I argue that the Advanced Education Statutes Amendment Act (Bill 38) in Alberta not only relies on misinformation, but is also going to expand UCP’s political control over higher education.

@RobinHoodlum @fette_a @Papaschase2 @nenshi Looks like it’s all party money

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Danielle Smith is going to use mandatory loyalty oaths to push the extremists out of her party.

“The office for Dale Nally, the minister of red tape reduction, says the husband of his chief of staff paid his own expenses.

But documents obtained by the Opposition NDP indicate Gary Davidson didn’t reimburse his share of group transportation costs”

New episode!

In an extended chat, we sit down with Controversial Calgary Councillor Landon Johnston!

In Part 1, we talk about his handing over confidential documents to media!

In Part 2 (which airs Thursday) we get into serious questions of conflicts of interest with the premiers office!

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

In Part 1 of our two part conversation with Calgary Councillor Landon Johnston, we got into his belief that a city councillor should be able to decide for themselves what is confidential.

Regardless of what document or even the rest of council says.

Part 2?

Questions of conflicts of interests involving the premiers office!

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

This is bonkers...

Smith claims she can fix healthcare, but she doesn't even know who was at the negotiating table?

This is some next level incompetence.

It's laughable that the Premier is trying to sell to ABs that I'm so powerful I can block her entire govt from implementing a critical intervention to save lives in our EDs!

It's even more laughable when facts are taken into account:

"Alberta lawyer and separatist leader Jeffrey Rath and his wife sold a waterfront estate in B.C. for $6.6 million – more than $4 million above its purchase price – while his firm fought a court order to refund millions to a First Nation client"

“Emergency Ward Doctor Raj Sherman says health care chaos could defeat Premier Danielle Smith and the UCP.

“Premier Smith is failing miserably on health care and I think this could lose her the election,”

“The UCP is facing pushback from some of its top organizers for demanding all riding presidents sign a non-disclosure agreement that declares they “recognize, respect and will abide by” results of the separation referendum.”

"Why would any of this be about “levelling the playing field,” though? That implies that there is or would be consideration on how parties would be affected by changing boundaries...

"Yet, here’s a rather significant government official suggesting otherwise."

@fette_a There's a few reasons why these two episodes are not to be missed!
