Fun fact: national parks aren’t cash cows. They lose tonnes of money (but that’s okay! They aren’t businesses). Banff probably loses less, but overall non-govt revenue is barely more than ten cents on the dollar of expenses.
@StirlingMayor @jenhandley Oooh! I agree. A sovereignty act for municipalities is much more important than a provincial police force. We don’t need a militia but option to have access to taxes other than property taxes would be awesome.
I ask Albertans who hoped for a different result tonight to please get involved or stay involved because the only way the UCP and NDP machines are held accountable is if we continue to organize and prepare to put the Alberta Party in the Legislature in May.

Full disclosure. I was the beneficiary of the first past the post system in 4 elections, & I enjoyed being part of a majority government for four terms. Now, I am convinced that the public is better off with minority and coalition governments. (Some conditions appy.) #abpoli
The by-election in Brooks - Medicine Hat raises the issue of strategic voting, which is always about how to defeat an unwelcome candidate. Unlike a general election, in a by-election, the best candidate to bet on for a strategic victory is the strongest local candidate. #abpoli
@williamvavrek@Seymour_from_GP Good point…. Maybe we could use drones to take the paper bundles directly to people’s homes… early in the morning before anyone wakes up.
Forward-thinking infrastructure investment for current needs and future growth - from roads that connect our communities to strong, secure and high-volume internet access in all corners of our province to connect around the globe.
