@TelusSupport Later in the day I realized #Telus had not provided me with an Insurance Certificate to give me a reduced rate on my Home Insurance. They said 24 hours it is now 2 weeks. Maybe Loyalty is a one way thing with #TelusHome Where is that @Rogers number?

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

@TELUSsupport Ah yes, my love hate relationship with TELUS Business. The @Rogers folks were at my door yesterday and made quite a case for switching over, I said no I was a LOYAL #Telus subscriber.

@TELUSsupport I requested an insurance certificate for the Security system two weeks ago. I have not received it. A reduction in fee will not be granted without it. How can Getting the certificate be expedited?

The Brown Shirt uniforms are on the way!! WTF has happened to this province or have we always been this F%$Ked up?

[The Breakdown @TheBreakdownAB]

Despite being corrected that grants are determined by academic panels and not Justin Trudeau, Smith not only doubles down on that…

She then says that with the powers of Bill 18 she will block renewals of grants if they don’t align with UCP views.

Men's Sheds Across the World March 26, 2024 #menssheds are community spaces where men can come together to work on projects, share skills, and socialize. Loneliness is a growing problem in many communities, and Men's Sheds offer a solution. https://t.co/VTONve5syi

@ChrisLaBossiere The shifting of “responsibility” has been confusing and downloading without funds has resulted in more confusion. Charting these areas for citizens and politicians could be helpful in a refocusing exercise. EXPECTATIONS

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

@ChrisLaBossiere Politicians respond to pressure from taxpayers so we all need to to better understand what the mandate scope of municipal government is. Back in the ‘70’s 80’s there was a gradual shifting away from direct delivery of services to “facilitation”.

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

@ChrisLaBossiere It must be very challenging coming from a strict chain of command operating structure to a mun structure that some would see as lacking in leadership. Political vs Operational

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

@ChrisLaBossiere I think the City has been in a state of organizational instability for many years. Changing structures, fluctuating priorities,
Inexperienced Councillors, and possibly & lack of understanding about the mandates of a City Government. Shifting responsibilities into the community?

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

@ChrisLaBossiere Did Andre Corbould come from a military background?

[Punch Jackson @punchj]

How should we be measuring the effectiveness of our MLAs? Committee work, speaking in the House, resolution of constituents issues, newsletters, constituency visibility? @UCPCaucus @abndpcaucus
