Another Day, Another Scandal This wasn’t known before today. The government changed how public funds were paid out - and routed $38 million through a lawyer connected to other ongoing government scandals. Same network. Same names. More money. Albertans deserve to know: - Why the rules were changed - Who approved it - And how much money actually reached its destination I raised this in the Legislature today. Watch what happens next. #ableg #abpoli #alberta #abtory -

Follow the access. Follow the money. When serious concerns are raised, verified, and formally provided to government, they should be acted on - not ignored. Instead, we’re seeing a pattern: insiders get access, while accountability is nowhere to be found. Even as individuals tied to procurement controversies, court proceedings, and RCMP investigations - including search warrants served- continue to have access to power and public funds. Today in the Legislature, I asked direct questions about yet another scandal - what was known, what was ignored, and why. Because when it comes to taxpayer dollars, Albertans deserve answers. #ableg #abpoli #alberta #abtory #albertatory

#DYK the UCP created a different Heritage Fund? It’s not used for what you think ….

Are Albertans’ savings being put at risk? Why is the government blurring the lines between a protected trust and a high-risk investment scheme? Alberta’s $32 billion Heritage Trust Fund exists to protect long-term savings for future generations. But the UCP has created a separate “Heritage Fund” targeting hedge-fund-level returns - and is presenting the two as if they are the same. They are not. In the Legislature this week I asked the Premier whether Albertans’ savings are being exposed to higher risk - including borrowing billions to invest in volatile markets and using public funds to backstop projects private capital has already rejected. Watch the exchange. The Tory Party believes Alberta’s savings should be protected, grown responsibly, and kept insulated from political misuse. Watch the clip. #abpoli #ableg #alberta #heritagetrustfund #abtory #albertatory

Why does the UCP need to hide records on how they are wasting taxpayer dollars?
#ableg #abpoli #toryparty
Peter Guthrie@PeterGuthrie99
If government spending is appropriate… why hide the records? The UCP has removed a key legislative mechanism that allowed MLAs to demand detailed records on government spending. Why eliminate transparency tools? Albertans deserve to know who is being paid, how much is being spent, and whether public dollars are funding political messaging. Government communications are becoming increasingly centralized and opaque. In this video, I explain why that matters. The Tory Party @progressivetory believes transparency is not optional - it’s the foundation of responsible government. #abtory #albertatory #ableg #abpoli #alberta

A Tory government will reverse the $200 AISH claw backand make accessibility standards a priority — practical, common-sense rules that improve access to services, communication, and infrastructure.
And remove every use of the notwithstanding clause.

Strong governments deliver stability and predictability. Last week in the Legislature, I pressed the Premier to clearly rule out separation to reduce the uncertainty that is hurting investment confidence in Alberta. Strength isn’t isolation. Strength is influence – earned at the table, not away from it. #abpoli #ableg #alberta #albertatory #abtory

We will end backroom deals, enforce ethics, protect whistleblowers, and punish misconduct - no exceptions, no immunity. That’s how we restore trust.

Higher Taxes, Higher Debt – A Budget Without Discipline. $9.4 billion deficit. 31% spending growth. $55 billion more debt. Higher property taxes. The UCP calls it restraint - Albertans will feel it. Here’s my breakdown of Alberta’s latest budget. #abpoli #ableg #alberta #abtory #albertatory

We choose to do the right thing, even when it is difficult.
We are Albertans working for Albertans. We focus on practical solutions and will do our best.
We take responsibility for the trust placed in us and will manage public resources with care.

Spending Up. Bureaucracy Up. Deficits Continue.
Spring session begins and Alberta’s budget is coming.
Expect a deficit between $8–$12 billion.
Oil companies can operate profitably at $60–$70 oil…this government needs $75 just to balance.
Spending is up 23%.
Government has grown 15%.
More Crown corporations. More bureaucracy. Less accountability.
Instead of fixing the budget, the UCP is shifting blame onto immigrants.
Albertans deserve stability, transparency, and responsible financial management.

Referendum Questions Should Unite Albertans, Not Divide Them
I want to address the government’s attempt to shift attention to immigration as a distraction from its own fiscal decisions and budget pressures.
Alberta’s budget challenges in health care, education, and affordability did not begin with immigration, and it is misleading for government to suggest otherwise. These pressures stem from years of rapid spending growth, insufficient long-term planning, and structural decisions made by government - including a 23% increase in spending and a significant expansion of the public sector over the past three years.
At the same time, Alberta actively encouraged population growth through initiatives like “Alberta is Calling,” and that growth - from both immigration and interprovincial migration - has strengthened our economy and workforce. Blaming newcomers distracts from the real issue: a government whose spending choices now require roughly $75 oil just to balance the budget.
It also risks undermining Alberta’s economic future, as many critical sectors - including health care, construction, retail, agriculture, tourism and skilled trades - rely on newcomers to fill essential roles. Creating uncertainty or hostility toward those who contribute to our workforce may discourage skilled professionals and workers from choosing Alberta, making it harder for businesses to grow and for public services to function effectively.
Introducing referendum questions that single out vulnerable groups risks creating division rather than solving problems. Responsible leadership means planning for growth, maintaining fiscal discipline, and ensuring public services keep pace - not vilifying people who chose Alberta in good faith.
Albertans deserve leadership focused on restoring a balanced budget, improving productivity, and delivering reliable public services. The solutions lie in better governance, sound financial management, and genuine accountability - not scapegoating or political distraction.
