Weighing in
on the “decision” to suddenly cancel a facility that had actually broken ground
in Fort McLeod a week or so ago I find myself asking the question, “why
now”? This facility had been in the
works for several years but after the last election the riding turned into a
Wildrose constituency rather than PC.
Historically ridings that were non-PC have been have-not ridings and
looks as though the pattern is not changing with our new premier. Her reply to the question “why” is that she
got a letter from police departments telling her they didn’t need it. Really, is that what we now call
“consultation”? Where was the original
consultation to set up the police academy in the first place?
Here’s another interesting tidbit from
today’s news; one of our senators-in-waiting (apparently that’s what they call
hogs now) who until recently was on the board of directors of the
University of Calgary has been caught with his hands in the cookie jar or more
aptly with his snout in the pig trough all through sending in expense accounts without anyone approving them.
How much money can a person dip into at a university? Apparently enough to actually be told to pay
it back! And now he’s headed to the
greatest trough of all, the Canadian senate.
Where there is no accountability at all.
Hog Heaven Indeed.
And we wonder where our tax dollars go!
