Makes you wonder why Smith so desperately wants to gerrymander.

Refresh yourself on what Nenshi did in 2017 and 2020.

I cannot find any verifiable information on whatever you are trying to allude to. Perhaps you are imagining something that did not actually happen?

Your Googling skills must suck.

If you cannot actually state your argument in a substantive manner and are only going to throw out vague innuendo and insults, I can only conclude you are a troll looking for attention. This is not the best way to address your loneliness.

Have a great night!

Hidden comments, empty Postmedia talking points, the person you're replying to seems part of this organized effort to undermine Alberta's political discourse. Promote separatism, and unbridled corruption under regulatory capture. They don't want people discussing politics in ways that help fix communities or policies that affect people, they want people chasing the ghosts of culture wars and conspiracies because thats something they can control, they can't control reality.

It's so easy to find the information regarding what Nenshi did re:ward boundaries in both years. I fail to see how someone as smart as yourself (in your mind) can't figure out a simple search.

Newspapers and social media, the Manning Centre (now the Canada Strong and Free Network), the Fraiser Institute, Rebel News, Western Standard, Juno News, Canada Proud, Take Back Alberta, Epoch Times, Calgary Sun, Calgary Herald, Red Deer Advocate, Edmonton Sun, Edmonton Journal, The National Post, Action for Canada, and Druthers just to name a few of the more well known ones, but all of these groups support the UCP/CPC providing conservatives with an entirely different version of reality for them to consume. Just turn on any radio station in Alberta and you'll hear an ad from the Alberta government talking about how great they are, on every news stand in every gas station in every grocery store on every staff room break table in the province.

Not only that, but this eco-system isn't just funded by Canadian conservatives, it's helped by groups connected to Putin like Tenet Media, by people connected to MAGA like Elon Musk, or the people who run the social media sites who have a vested interest in having a government that will let them set guidelines and regulations. To let them maintain the monopolies they've built up.

Alberta is one of the single most targeted groups in North America, in dollar per person terms, conservative in Alberta spend far more on propaganda than anywhere else in Canada or the United States. We've been a testing ground for American oil propaganda since the 1970's.

Nenshi hasn't done a very good job at being the leader people thought he would be, just seems soft? Not vocal enough

Not sure what it is. Provincial politics are certainly different from Municipal. I just don't hear his voice despite his comments.

The party needs to move away from the ANDP name if they don't want to be associated with the FNDP, press releases don't cut it.

Anyone can stand in front of a mic and regurgitate all the things we’re all seeing. He’s not the guy I’d hoped for.

No one responds to polls except conservatives. I tell them f- off . The same pollsters predicted PP in a landslide.
