with a biased, incompetent Speaker in the provincial legislature. As the Calgary Herald quoted recently:
In an unprecedented attack, she [Danielle Smith] went after legislature Speaker Ken Kowalski for twisting the rules to keep his party in power.
"The Speaker needs to remember that his job is to serve the interests of all Alberta," Smith said.
"Time and again he has failed in that role and failed Albertans. And make no mistake, it is Ed Stelmach who has given the Speaker permission to run roughshod over Alberta's democracy. . . ."
"I think Albertans are as shocked as we are by the behaviour of this government, having seen the games they play, having seen how they treat Albertans, having seen how they push around political leaders and bully their own caucus. . . . I don't recognize them as the party I once supported."
How many people in this province say the same sort of thing about the shenanigans that go on here?
Hint: it’s a lot more than the freshie-gulpers would like you to believe.
