  19-08-2022 14:00 via edmontonjournal.com
  
  The UCP (United Conservative Party) is currently choosing a new leader. I believe that they should also consider a new name for the party. They have arbitrarily ripped up agreements with cities, picked a fight with doctors and health-care workers during a pandemic, wasted millions of dollars on a “war room” that is a laughingstock and a further billion-plus on a pipeline to nowhere, targeted post-secondary institutions that are vital to Alberta’s future and refused to listen to

  Q I believe my 16-year-old rocket junipers are infected with Hawthorn rust. For about three years I've cut off the spore balls I come across and cleaned off the orange gobs that form after rain.
