$12,555 for one round-trip airfare to the Olympics in London. That's what our bone-headed premier spent. Just for her ladyship herself, in first class, of course. Oh, and she tacked on a personal jaunt to Paris for good measure. She just does not get it. Alberta is heading to a $3 billion deficit in 2013 and Alison just sails gaily along.
It's outrageous. But Albertans have only themselves to blame, afterall we elected her -- not I personally, I voted Wild Rose -- but a majority of us did. And they will simply not hear of a sales tax. How dumb.
Per capita program spending in the province jumped from $6,825 in 1996-97 to $9,594 by 2005-06. But instead of keeping program spending in line with inflation and population, Alberta gave away more dough to reach a high of $10,619 per person this year -- a whopping 56% increase. Ridiculously, the same people enjoying the money will not entertain a sales tax.
Alberta is on its way to morphing into a province just like any other, extra debt included. It's just so idiotic.

ReplyDeleteI thought Ontario and Quebec were bad - but this is outrageous. Pretty soon Quebec will separate or become part of Sicily!!!!! Have you heard the new Premier took out the Canadian flag from the Quebec City Parliament??????????
'brains they said trains"!!!!! That's all for now dearie. B.A.M.F.
Bev Oda only spent $16 for orange juice. This was almost $13,000 for one airfare!!!!!! It's completely appalling. She gives all women a bad name. What a bird-brain!
ReplyDeleteYes, I heard that another bird-brain woman, the premier of Quebec, Pauline Marois, took down the Canadian flag from the Quebec legislature. It makes one almost ashamed to be a woman!
