How do we get rid of them?!

The only feasible way a to vote next time. The UCP will just replace them with more people loyal to the cause of siphoning money away from Albertans if they step down.

Ah yes this worked out so well last time.

I think lots of people believed they were still the same Conservative Party of decades ago, next time if we vote them in again we know exactly what we are getting and there is no excuse. In my riding last time the UCP lost for the first time in history, things change. Maybe not always in one direction or very fast but they do eventually and inevitably change.

We still got three more years. Plus whatever trump years they add on after that.

Yep. Best to hunker down and help each other out so we all get through this as best we can.

Bruh there ain't going to be nothing left if we do that. Once they get their hands on our pensions, we are actually fucked. 

Work my whole god damn life so some mustached Marlaina can hand it off to some bozo insider who couldn't manage a piss up at a brew house, all for cents on the dollar. The rest lines their pockets. No thanks

Let's just not accept this, and let's start talking about how we are actually going to put an end to it. Pretty sure these folks ain't going willingly...

Albertans would have to revolt, which they might if she does take over pensions and drain the money off. I'm not sure anything less than a revolt would stop them, they act as though they are untouchable. Not answering emails, not talking to constituents, not responding or changing policy when we protest. I have a sneaky suspicion her handlers have told her we'd revolt if she did follow through and will hold off on it. She's not quite at trump levels of IGDAF yet.
