Change Again? It's a Circle!!

Alberta has accomplished so little in the past 4 years with the PC party. In fact I wonder if we accomplished anything outside of #bill44.
Lets take a look at it. Premier Ed campaigned on raising royalties so Alberta could receive their "FAIR SHARE". Less than a year later oops lets tweak it. 6 months later oops lets tweak it some more. Within another 6months Holy Shit we better give them some incentives to come back. Hmmm full circle and then some considering our take now is less than the royalties we received under the old regime.

Then there was the cutting of the PDD in which the GOA decided to take $11M worth of funding from our most vulnerable. Oh the outcry, followed up by a decision to back peddle on this one as well.

Lets not forget the Teachers contract that was signed and agreed upon. Until of course the average weekly earnings increased too much for our GOA liking. Well yep you guessed it, another circle in backtracking.

Now we can move on. Oh maybe not so fast, the huge wage increase the GOA gave themselves seems to be back on the table yet again at election time. How timely

What about the $107 Million in cuts the Tories made in education cuts. Well it is election time and the Tories will help Albertans by restoring the funding that they personally decided to cut. Geez they deserve a huge thanks. I don't think so.

The cookie monster fiasco (Duckett) and the huge payout and decentralization of our health boards. Yikes

Bill 50, and 19 now seems to be back on the debate table again as well. This is a Government that has wasted our time and taxpayer money. They obviously have no clue on which direction they want to go. Spending years screwing up and then more time and money to fix it.

I guess in short if you want to keep in a Government that goes in circles year after year, vote for the Alberta Progressive Conservatives. This new leader that was a cabinet minister in this same messed up government claims change. Great! I don't see the difference because every decision this government makes seems to need change. How about the new changes from the "old boyz club", Redford places Hancock as party whip and Horner as deputy premier, oops right no change there. Hooray something didn't change. What a sad system of governing.

UPDATE LMAO: Seems another "change" Redford has now reconsidered her cancelling of the fall session in the Legislature. It will now be back on. Phew...this may be the post that never ends ;)
