Dear Dave:

The hypocrisy of PC Alberta & its current caucus know no bounds. They introduced Bill XXXVI (36) & passed it when they were in power, this bill severely hampered the rights of land owners (including farmers!) Plus it was done under the then watch of then Premier Ed Stelmach, Progressive Conservative, Fort Saskatchewan-Vegreville. A farmer himself, Ed should have known better!

The thought process behind Bill VI since it was written by Dr. David Swann, MD, MLA, Liberal, Calgary-Mountainview is okay in principle. But, if it really was a good bill you wouldn't have had your caucus give exceptions to Hutterites & other specific groups, thus defacto II pronged discrimination. Since Dave wrote the bill & you took it over, it is in point of fact a Liberal/NDP bill, not a stand alone NDP bill.

Its almost a shame that they are only in bloom V-VII weeks a year because there is only one party in this the Province Of Alberta, in the Dominion Of Canada that has always consistently & most vociferously defended the rights of landowners, farmers & their families!
