Over-taxation and under-representation. Our Edmonton provincial government is pushing the biggest property tax hike in Calgary’s history. Nearly half your property tax bill now goes to Edmonton as a transfer payment. Their take is up 57% in four years. Now they're demanding 21% more -- about $339 per household -- this year alone. By comparison, Edmontonians are being asked to pay $154 more. Let’s work together for a fair deal for Calgary.
Premier Danielle Smith suggests that the delay in adding new triage ER doctors falls at the feet of the Alberta Medical Association.
#ableg FACT: Total 4-Year Overall Royalties NDP 4-Year Total: $16.3 Billion UCP 4-Year Total: $82.2 Billion Over a 4-year window, the Smith’s UCP had roughly $65.9 billion MORE in resource cash than the NDP did. What does Smith have a $9.3B DEFICIT?
x.com/TheBreakdownAB… WOWZER folks… this is some Grade A Bullshit… Shall we put some facts out there? 1 - Premier has it reversed - the Section of Emergency Medicine (SEM) “hoped govt would work with us to get these positions in place”. They haven’t met w us... 1/8
With speculation running rampant that Smith’s address will feature immigration heavily, it’s worth reupping this clip from just a couple of years ago… Where she said she wanted 10 million people in Alberta by 2050. #abpoli #ableg #cdnpoli
