Members of the media are expected to ask questions of the party leaders, and maybe even get a few good questions off, but rarely pose any questions that could damage the leader if they attempt to answer the question even somewhat truthfully.
Just today Cochrane-Airdrie MLA Peter Guthrie sent out a letter to his constituents apologizing for the UCP government putting back in place the restrictions despite previously having said that “Alberta was not only ‘Open for Summer’ but ‘Open for Good.”
In spite of the lead, Conservative Party leader Erin O’Toole has been jumping from foot to foot over the past week when it comes to the issue of firearms.
Kenney himself admitted back in April of 2020 that AHS could expand ICU capacity to over 1,000+ beds in the province, which raises the question of why that was not already done at least partially a long time ago?
After more than two weeks of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberal Party not having a platform, despite being the party that called the election, they have finally released it and their vaccine mandate policy has gotten more radical than Trudeau’s public statements had been indicating.
Just a year ago Conservative leader Erin O’Toole was still maintaining his front as being a “True Blue” Conservative who would never run on his own carbon tax, which he even put in writing for the Canadian Taxpayers Federation. Now not only is O’Toole having the Conservative Party run on a carbon tax in the 2021 snap election but if you disagree with his carbon tax you will be removed from the CPC caucus.
It is still early on in the election, with 21 days of campaigning left to go and a lot that can change until election day comes, but for now, the Conservatives can feel more comfortable than they did before the election started as they have reversed the pre-election polling the Liberals used to hold over them.
Although the pro-oil and gas advocacy organization would have endorsed the Conservative candidate in any given race back in 2019. Now in 2021 with Conservative leader Erin O’Toole having the party run on a carbon tax, and supporting the anti-oil Paris Agreement, UWR is endorsing Independent candidate Derek Sloan instead of Blake Richards.
Referendums on a political figure’s personality can make or break their chances at reelection. Justin Trudeau is definitely at this moment failing to make a case for why he should continue being prime minister, but the Conservatives need to watch out because if Trudeau can rally, with a lot of help from the bought-off legacy media, he can mount a comeback because the election is all about him.
Liberal Finance Minister Chyristia Freeland a couple of days ago was labeled by Twitter as having shared “Manipulated Media” after posting a heavily edited video in order to claim Conservative leader Erin O’Toole was in favour of moving towards private healthcare.
