4/10 #Nenshi took aim at Alberta’s #RecallAct, introduced under former premier Jason #Kenney.

The legislation, which allows citizens to petition to fire #councillors, #mayors, or #MLAs, would also be on the chopping block.

“I think the recall legislation was flawed from the beginning,” he said.

Smith said no changes are coming "just yet."

But Climenhaga finds it "probable" the #UCP will be "forced to #recall easy recalls sooner than later."

The #RecallAct is bad law, he concludes: "there can be no sympathy for #Smith & the #UCP."

5/8 The irony: last May, the #Smith govt boasted that changes to the #RecallAct would "make it easier to recall an #MLA."

The party bragged it would "give voters the power to fire their MLAs if they break promises" — not just for "egregious" law-breaking.

Dani wants to change her #RecallAct for fear of ‘overthrowing’ the #UCP. 😭

Serve #AB & there’ll be no backlash. It IS that simple.
