In a Dec. 10 letter obtained by The Orchard, Ethics Commissioner (and UCP donor) Shawn McLeod says the Conflict of Interest Act doesn't apply to David Yager.
The ethics commissioner in Alberta is a joke, the moment the last one started to grumble about Smith’s run away corruption in comparison to Kenney, she was removed.
Kenney’s government was the single most corrupt provincial government in Alberta’s history up to that point. We’re simply in the midst of a kleptocracy, it’s really gotten that bad, and the UCP base doesn’t care because they didn’t vote for policy, they voted for a political party to uphold their beliefs that couldn’t stand on their own due to a lack of evidence, and they needed the authority of government to enforce those beliefs on the populace.
It’s very disheartening trying to work within a democratic system when a partisan divide has resulted in the dehumanization of huge swaths of the population. How are we supposed to comprise with people who don’t recognize your right to exist, bodily autonomy, or self determination?
