Dimanche Avec Premier Ministres-Alexander Mackenzie



Rory J. Koopmans, B. Admin., Beverly Crest Hotel Computer, Edmonton, Alberta

August XXXIst, MMXIV

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

Without a university education due to family circumstances of a relative getting sick, Prime Minister Alexander Mackenzie was still a smart man. A stonemason by trade, he had intelligentsia in both his hands through quality workmanship & in the brain by being smart enough to make it all the way to the office of the Prime Minister Of Canada. Prime Minister Mackenzie knew that students in both labour & non-labour fields must learn the values of respect & freedom.

"We shall all respect the principle of each other & do nothing that would be regarded as an act of oppression to any portion of the people."

According II Author Pierre Berton's "The National Dream" Prime Minister Mackenzie Also Served As The Minister of Public Works,

Dear Jeff:

Just like former Premier Ed Stelmach, Progressive Conservative had his first language be Ukrainian, President Martin Van Buren's first language was Dutch. As I am the son of a Dutch immigrant myself, I can truly understand the culture. So did President Van Buren & he also was the Ist President II be born as a citizen of the United States as his predecessors had all been born as British subjects. Being the son of immigrants, the President knew it was important II teach students & new immigrants wanting II get inII governance the need IV obeying government laws when in public service in order to make their country flourish & prosper on the world stage.

"The national will is the supreme law of the Republic, & on all subjects within the limits of his constitutional powers should be faithfully obeyed by the public servant."

Dear Jeff:

Sergeant Joe Friday of the Los Angeles Police Department has to switch II a more reassuring tone rather than "matter-of-fact" in his voice. This is required b/c a mother of II young missing girls is violently agitated & distressed that her kids are missing. So he has to in otherwords "re-adapt" to calm the situation & allow his investigation II get back on track.

Dear Jeff:

I'd like to see an increased set of standards when it comes to free wifi in restaurants. IV instance, in some McDonald's, there are also plug-in stations for customers such as student users. At some points during the day they are covered, at some points, they are not. So there is free power at certain points of the day for certain customers and no free power at others. This is clearly a case of human rights discrimination against computer users. If a customer has a plug-in unit for study, then s/he should be able to use that outlet if other customers are using wifi anyway.

Dear Thomas & Ric:

August XXVIth, MMXIV

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

Students need to be aware that Former Madam Premier Alison M. Redford, QC, Painting Her Garage had lower cellular phone bill charges than PC Leadership candidate Thomas Lukaszuk, MLA, Progressive Conservative, Edmonton-Castledowns. Say what you want about her high spending airplane costs, she made up for it by only charging taxpayers for calls that were legitimate expenses (such as her entire cellular, gov't cellular, & home phone line bills.) Definitely a shining example in the economics area for students to follow.

The Former Madam Premier Redford & Thomas also have the same Jasper hairstylist at the Jasper Park Lodge. She of course flew their directly and then had Thomas drive up separately from Medicine Hat where she dropped him off. Then she had him rent a car at taxpayer expense and drive to Jasper. So the hairstyling & beauty parlour looks were a II for I (2 for 1) special for them both. Truly an amazing deal for Alberta taxpayers!

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

Students looking for an economics lesson sure are not finding it with cab drivers & taxis these days. $7.60 just to enter a cab at night is a complete rip off, especially for folks on limited incomes like myself, or students from working class family's. Sure cabbies & cab firms have the right to a reasonable profit on every fare they collect, but now I will have to go even less places, rely on friends for rides or take public transportation which quite often stops running by 9:30pm at night where I work my part time job. I mean how is this fairness in economics?

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

An Editor's Note: President Andrew Jackson founded the "Democratic" Party. Executive Dissertations uses the short form or modern version of this party name when introducing political candidates as "Democrat-Kansas" for example is considered an acceptable standard by the political mainstream. However, for the purposes of Presidents here in the constant of this blog, I will refer to them by the full "Democratic" name in "The Saturday Presidential Buzz" posts in order to ensure full historical accuracy.

President Jackson was a farmer, planter, & a military man by training so he had real battle "Commander-In-Chief" skills as he rose all the way II the rank of "Major-General" bIV ever assuming the Presidency. As a result of this, he was always thinking in strategic terms in the military & political battlefields (lets face it, both are open armed conflict.) Students of warfare need II be able II make command decisions in both military matters & in the affairs of state if assuming office.

Dear Jeff:

A young woman (possibly a student until her identity can be established) has been murdered in her apartment in Van Nuys while she slept & there is no evidence of sexual interference. Detective Joe Friday & his partner, Detective Frank Smith of the Los Angeles Police Department are the nearest responding squad car & so are sent inII investigate. Det. Friday wants to see if anything at the scene was used for the murder, thus leading to possible DNA evidence as to the identity of the killer or killers. He tells patrol officers cordoning off the scene to get cracking while the scene is still fresh & thus a higher chance of success.

A Geography Lesson

August XXIst, MMXIV

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

When the wife of Former Prime Minister of Canada, the Right Hon. Charles Joseph Clark, Progressive Conservative: a Mrs. Maureen McTeer-Clark saw this picture of her husband & Former Madam Premier Alison M. Redford, QC, Now Feeding Ducks By The Pond At Her Calgary-Elbow Home together at Former South African President Nelson Mandela's funeral, African National Congress-Johannesburg, she almost lost her mind.

You see Jeff, students should know that back in the Ottawa days when Charles Joseph had Alison working for him there was some back-biting & jealousies. Insults were traded between Maureen & Alison, thus Maureen demanded that Charles Joseph being a Crown Minister in the cabinet of Prime Minister Martin Brian Mulroney, QC, Progressive Conservative transfer Alison out as she felt insulted. So Charles Joseph picked a spot on the map as far away as possible & that spot was as a human rights lawyer in South Africa for Alison. Thus a perfect fit & it prevented further diplomatic problems & brouhahas between Minister Clark's wife & the Former Madam Premier.

So as a result Jeff, students need II learn that the reason Alison took the private plane from South Africa not so she could get to the swearing in of her cabinet the following Friday, but instead to appease Mrs. McTeer-Clark's mind so she wouldn't be angry with the Former PM at having ridden both ways on the plane with the Former Madam Premier Redford. He had already been getting an earful in taking the plane to South Africa with her. So bIV folks keep up the attacks on the Former Madam Premier, you have II see things from her side, she was just trying II stop family squabbles for Charles Joseph. As a result, her actions in spending the higher airfare at taxpayers expense were 100% fully justified! (As I've inferred all along!)

I IV one am very pleased at the superb attitude that Stephen Khan, MLA, Progressive Conservative, St. Albert is showing & students should be to. Now that he isn't in cabinet anymore, he has a little more time on his hands. As a result, he has invited fellow ex-cabinet minister Christine Cusanelli, MLA, Progressive Conservative, Calgary-Currie & his former stupendous leader Former Madam Premier Alison M. Redford, QC, Progressive Conservative, Hangs Her Drycleaning Out II Dry Herself Since She Laid Off The Nanny After Being Caught In The Prop Plane Scandal to his home for the weekend in St. Albert. plus Ally & X-tine are driving up in one car so X-tine can write off the gas as an expense against her MLA salary since Ally is cash poor right now!

Their family's are also invited & in keeping with the tradition of the good times we had under Ally's XXIX (29) months of stewardship, Stephen is taking everyone out at his expense to a revival of a great family film at St. Albert Cinemas involving one of his relatives: "Star Trek II: The Wrath Of Khan." I for one think the Khan, Cusanelli, & Redford clans will have a glorious time. Plus, they'll be sitting in a dark theatre, so there is on worry about St. Albert residents throwing popcorn, eggs, & other food items at them!

Dear Jeff:

Kudos are certainly had to Mrs. Kim Trynacity of the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) News Edmonton team for almost singlehandedly setting up a debate tonight at the Ukranian Youth Unity Complex at 9615-153rd Avenue in the Castledowns area of Edmonton at 7pm.

I find it exhilarating that PC Alberta is being knifed in the back directly by the triumvate of the III campaigns just as I suggested. The Campaign II Elect Thomas Lukaszuk, The Campaign II Elect Ric McIver, & The Campaign II Elect Jim Prentice deserve a lot of credit IV holding the debate in a fully public setting.

Its a bit rich however to suggest that Patricia Matsuka, Cooper Matheson, Ex-Mayor Steve Mandel & Candidate Prentice of the Jim Prentice Team are being completely honest here. Staffers of the other campaigns & folks who were around when Thomas & Rick went up to Jim & asked him to co-sign the letter to the party that they jointly sent in asking IV a public gathering rather than a controlled party one must be laughing. They are laughing b/c Jim Prentice outright turned them down. Then, when the proverbial "spit" hit the fan, Jim backpedals & says that he was in support of a public debate after all. This students kind of makes me think its the kind of Premier he'll be. Then again, he is the ex-boss of that "wondernuts", Former Madam Premier Alison Redford, QC, Not In Charge Of Even Putting Gas In Her Own Car Anymore.

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

I IV one would like to thank the intrepid Edmonton Journal columnist Paula Simons. I one-hundred percent agree with her that Former Madam Premier Alison Redford, QC, Progressive Conservative, Not In Elected Office Hallelujah deserves her portrait painted at taxpayer expense & hung in the Alberta Legislature hallway outside the Office of the Premier. Alison's XXIX (29) months of glorious stewardship deserved II be recognized for running this fine province immaculately (inII the ground.) Luckily IV Alison, she was up in a government turbo prop plane at taxpayer expense so she didn't have to worry about being run over herself.

Paula also informs me that the University Of Alberta is giving Alison brand new copies of books suited to her time in office & in keeping with the portrait theme. These books are "The Ox-Bow Incident" (previously featured here at Executive Dissertations) & "Hang 'Em High." As well, the university has sprung IV dvd copies of the two films (taking the funds for the books directly out of their campus Food Bank budgets.) The university wanted to thank Alison IV her service & is also appreciative of the way that she & former Redford Deputy Premier & Minister of Advanced Education & Boxing Champion Thomas Lukaszuk, B. Ed., MLA, Progressive Conservative, Edmonton-Castledowns & current Progressive Conservative candidate for leader almost singlehandedly decimated post-secondary education in this province.

These are very appropriate gifts as each ex-Prime Minister of Canada was given a book representing their time in office as a thank you in MMVIII (2008) for coming to the University Of Alberta IV a conversation series. Executive Dissertations applauds the school for its caring & compassionate attitude of dignity towards Former Madam Premier Redford. Students should also appreciate the fact that Progressive Conservative leadership candidates Jim Prentice, I'm Not Dull & Ric McIver, MLA, Progressive Conservative, Calgary-Hays, I Lie & Claim I Cancelled The Sky Palace When In Fact It Was Hon. Wayne Drysdale, MLA, Minister of Infrastructure, Progressive Conservative, Grande Prairie-Wapiti who actually did so are driving down to present the books to Alison in person in order to save the government postage costs.

Dear Jeff:

The Public Affairs Bureau (PAB), for which the sitting Premier is the minister for doesn't get the recognition it deserves. Former Madam Premier Alison Redford, QC: Not An MLA & Already Crying Everyday At The Lack Of Attention She Is Getting used to try & manipulate the bureau inII doing things like destroying the reputations of disabled & poor folks & put out lies about them & then charge it to the taxpayer. This is of course something I of course would never stoop to & for students looking II get inII the provincial civil service, I would suggest they look into PAB.

The PAB & its affiliated layers never served to manipulate the public in the terms of office of Premiers Manning through Stelmach. Nor are they doing it with current Premier Dave Hancock, QC, MLA, Progressive Conservative, Edmonton-Whitemud. However, during the time of Premier Redford, they were used to manipulate messages such as flight logs (according to the Auditor General's report & other investigations), as well as cause problems for average Albertans who Premier Redford saw as a direct threat to her Premiership (in otherwords, every citizen in the province, starting with her entire PC caucus.) They were also requested to help in covering up taxpayer funded $10,000.00 breakfasts & lunches by Premier Redford at the Hotel Macdonald when she could have eaten at the Legislature Cafeteria or made herself a brown bag lunch at her Edmonton apartment like any normal citizen.

PAB work hard at getting Her Majesty's Government's message out 24/7/365 (366 in a leap year.) They are dedicated to making sure that the government is responsive II the needs of the Alberta populace & that we can as a citizenry truly access the services we need.

Dear Jeff:

For students interested in the comedic arts, we lost a real talent when Academy Award (TM) Winner/Grammy (TM) Award Winner/Emmy Award (TM) Winner/Golden Globe Award (TM) Winner/Screen Actors Guild Award (TM) Winner Robin Williams took his own life yesterday due to depression. It just goes to show you that mental health issues can affect a person no matter what their age, socioeconomic status, or popularity level. Plus, Mr. Williams addictions to alcohol & drugs didn't add to the mix for helping him.

I myself have performed short stand-up comedy sets many years ago & studied comedy in bars, comedy clubs, as well as being a late night talk show aficionado for years. So I saw Robin perform on tv many times & I also appreciated his acting talents.

My two fondest memories of Robin Williams are when he went on Johnny Carson's penultimate "The Tonight Show" (at Johnny's request) along with Bette Midler to say goodbye to Johnny & thank him for his service & just to hang out on the couch with Johnny, Ed, Doc, & the NBC Orchestra.

Secondly, when David Letterman came back II host his first "Late Show" on CBS after his quintuple heart bypass surgery, who was his first guest? That's right, it was Robin Williams who came out in medical scrubs to act as "Dr. Robin" & tease & mock Dave & Dave wouldn't have it any other way. He had nothing in terms of a project to promote. He just came out on an airplane from California to Dave's New York based show because David asked him to. I mean talk about a class guy!

The joy he brought II these II men, II of the world's greatest ever late night talk show hosts & entertainers, as well as his many fans was palpable. The look of pure happiness & the smiles on their faces was just absolutely fantastic!

Dear Jeff:

So Donna Kennedy-Glans, MLA, Independent, Calgary-Varsity wants to again sit in the Progressive Conservative (PC) caucus, why? I guess now that the cat is out of the bag & that "Mrs. Ethics & Transparency" has been caught flying high on the taxpayer dime on inappropriate flights like the Former Madam Premier Alison M. Redford, QC, Not The MLA IV Calgary-Elbow Anymore Thank God/Praise Yahweh/Allah Be Praised, she may as well rejoin the rot & corruption of the PC Party. You wouldn't catch another Kennedy, that is XXXVth (35th) President Of The United States John F. "Jack" Kennedy, Democrat-Massachusetts pulling this crap!

Jack:

- Stood toe to toe against then President Fidel Castro,, Communist-Cuba & President Nikita Khruschev, Communist-Union Of Soviet Social Republics (U.S.S.R.) in the Cuban Missile Crisis & exposed them for their dirty tactics.

Donna:

- Flew on flights with other PC MLAs to PC Alberta functions yet claims to be open & honest.

Jack:

- Worked very hard on civil rights legislation for all Americans to be equal.

Donna:

- Took what XXII (22) months into this term of office to quit this corrupt government, some sacrifice.

Jack:

- Took a few bullets to the skull & was killed in the defence of his country.

Donna:

- Was such an ineffective cabinet minister, quit after only IV (4) months, which is why she was relegated II just "Associate Minister" status.

Donna your a decent lady, but many people knew Jack Kennedy. Many folks thought his death was ever so sad because they considered him a friend of theirs. Donna, your no Jack Kennedy!

Sir Freddy Haultain Was No Freeloader

August VIIth, MMXIV

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

As Executive Dissertations waits IV the Auditor General's report in the pie or eye or fly in the empty plane sky report on the travails of the Former Madam Premier Alison M. Redford, QC, Progressive Conservative, Not An MLA Anymore Thank God; we look back at pre-Confederation & Alberta's Ist real Commander-In-Chief, The Honourable Mister Chief Justice Sir Frederick W. Haultain, Liberal-Conservative. Sir Frederick was Premier of Alberta when it was actually still part of the North West Territories and hived off on its own along with Saskatchewan CIX (109) years ago coming up this September Ist. Sir Frederick was in fact the Ist Premier of said North West Territories from MDCCCXCVII-MCMV (1897-1905) & since our province was included under his command jurisdiction, it would be arrogant & remiss IV this blog not II include him would it not?

- A lawyer by trade, Sir Frederick started out life's journey being born in Woolworth, England. He got his Bachelor Of Arts & law degrees from the University Of Toronto, studying at the respected Osgoode Hall. He also had II honourary doctorates from the University Of Saskatchewan & one from his old University Of Toronto alma mater. 

- Sir Frederick was a rather successful politician later on. In MCMV, he led the Provincial Rights Party to a great pick up of seats. He even served as Leader Of Her Majesty's Loyal Official Opposition in Saskatchewan from MCMVI-MCMXII (1906-1912.) 

- Sir Frederick was also rather adept in the field of law. He was appointed the Chief Justice of the Saskatchewan Superior Court, & later Chief Justice of the Saskatchewan Court Of Appeal. Legal students & scholars will note that it is a very rare accord to be Chief Justice of one division of a court system, but to have been the top man at both was rather extraordinary. It shows Sir Frederick's talented legal mind & how highly he was regarded.

- Sir Frederick tried to make Alberta & Saskatchewan one province bIV the federal Liberal government decided to make them to so as the proposed Province Of Buffalo wouldn't become II powerful & have too big a conservative minded focus, thus causing the federal Liberals & their provincial counterparts II lose support/votes in the west.

- On the educational front, students must take note that Sir Frederick served as Chancellor of the University Of Saskatchewan from MCMXVII-MCMXL (1917-1940.) He was extremely proud to be Honourary Grand Chief of a Saskatchewan Cree tribe, "White Star" was his moniker.

The Sir Frederick W. Haultain Bvilding At 9811-109 Street In The Palatial Downtown Edmonton Core Is Named IV This Great Pioneering Leader & Legal Scholar,

They could have knocked these people over & caused injuries. Not acceptable & all!

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA

Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

As its August IVth (4th) today, students might question what's in a number? The number "4" or any number can have a significant meaning, & can mean something different when tied in with different numbers &/or letters &/or symbols. Examples of 4 include:

I. The "4-H Club", a worthwhile charitable organization.

II. Shouting "four" on a golf course to warn golfers ahead or behind you of an impending golf ball or dangerous object coming at them.

III. "Four score & seven years ago" in President Abraham Lincoln's (Republican-Illinois) Gettysburg Address to signify his nation's forefathers started the United States of America 87 years earlier with a score meaning XX (20) years.

IV. "4" years being the maximum single term length affixed for a President Of The United States.

V. "Vier" is "4" in Dutch, the home nation of many of my relatives.

VI. The Alberta Legislative Assembly used II sit V (5) days a week, Monday-Friday whereas now it sits IV (4) days a week, Monday-Thursday.

So B"IV" students discount numbers, they must remember that we need them, just like we need letters & symbols in order "IV" society II properly function on a daily basis,

Its All IV One & One IV All,

August Ist, MMXIV

Hon. Jeff Johnson, B. Ed., MLA, Minister of Education, Progressive Conservative, Athabasca-Sturgeon-RedH2O

Dear Jeff:

A verbal explosion from Sergeant Joe Friday of the Los Angeles Police Department because he cannot get a proper identification match in terms of a clear photo on a young student expected of beating up senior citizens. This despite the fact that the LAPD ID room has pictures of the lad & he has pulled this racket in the past. However, these pictures are not turning out to be clear enough II be a factor. The Sgt. expresses his frustration at the youngster but also can't let him know that the cops don't have him quite nailed cold (at least until proper documented evidence can be obtained.)

"All right now you listen to me boy. You can take this as a warning or a piece of advice, anyway you like. You & your friends keep on playing punk gangsters & we're going to land on you hard! You understand?"
