Dear Adriana:
Seventeenth Premier Rachel Notley-Arab, MLA, New Democratic, Edmonton-Strathcona (& current Leader of Her Majesty's Loyal Official Opposition) is right to call out Eighteenth Hon. Premier Jason Kenney, PC, MLA, United Conservative, Calgary-Lougheed in committee today over his use of charter jets at taxpayers expense! The entire process of the corrupt use of the government planes was shut down by Sixteenth Hon. Premier Jim Prentice, PC, Progressive Conservative when he rightly ordered the government fleet of planes sold to cover off the corruption of the late Twelfth Premier Ralph Klein, Progressive Conservative who would fly on extra planes alone or with staff who smoked so he could light up at taxpayers expense on his world wide travels. As well as the corruption of Fourteenth Premier Alison Redford, Progressive Conservative who illegally used the planes to fly her daughter around at taxpayers expense.
Premier Prentice in retirement died ironically in a privately chartered jet in the British Columbia woods & had to be identified by his teeth (may the Lord (or the faith leader of your choice) bless & keep him for all eternity) But he & his friends paid for their own passage. This just shows that Premier Kenney doesn't care about respecting the legacy of his fellow Alberta Premiers & especially fellow Right Hon. Steve Harper, PC, Conservative cabinet minister Prentice. Cutting the budget of the firefighters who drop in rapidly off of helicopters (which fly like planes) to attend to fires as a result of wildfires or the crash that killed Jim (the David Suzuki lover) is an absolutely disgraceful move by Jason & his Finance Minister Hon. Travis Toews, MLA, United Conservative, Grande Prairie-Wapiti. Jason should pay for the airfares of all the fellow Premiers to Saskatchewan $ 4 $ out of his own pocket! How is flying Premiers to a province outside of Alberta the financial responsibility of Albertans in these tough economic times?!
Odd Numbered Premiers Ed Stelmach, Progressive Conservative (Thirteenth), Hon. Judge Premier Dave Hancock, Progressive Conservative (Fifteenth), & Mrs. Notley-Arab Are All Looking Pretty Good In Comparison Right Now Aren't They?!,

Dear Adriana:
It seems appropriate my title today on this 41st day of the Canadian Election & with my 41st straight day putting up a blog post to represent the late Former 41st United States President George Herbert Walker Bush & his son the Former 43rd United States President George Walker Bush in this the death throes of the 43rd Federal Election of The Dominion Of Canada. Family relationships can at times be rather strained but the II George's seemed pretty okay with 1 another & George Walker (Ellen Degeneres-de Rossi's best friend) painted the top of these two paintings to showcase that special relationship with his dad. So I strongly encourage families to go to Elections Canada voting stations today, vote, & take their children so they that they are all together to witness democracy in action!

Dear Adriana:
At polling stations tomorrow, Elections Canada employees, observers, & the voting public must make sure that the entrances & exits for voting are easy to access. Especially for disabled voters with mobility issues & also devices such as walkers, scooters, wheelchairs, etc. Once in the polling station, voters once they have established proper identification & received their ballot with the initials of the Deputy Returning Officer (DRO) on it, must make sure it is in good shape & not tampered with once they get behind the polling booth to vote. So quality polling stationary. As well, the writing utensil, pencils for Elections Canada must be constantly kept sharp throughout the voting day. And resharpened &/or replaced as necessary to ensure an absolutely clean & totally fair vote!
Bring Proper Identification & Your Voter Card To Smooth The Voting Process Along,

Dear Adriana:
In the "campaign" to get used sporting equipment to youth & families who cannot afford it, the Edmonton Oilers Community Foundation is on the right track. The Oilers could make Semenko IIIrd jerseys with Dave's image on them & "Dave's Drive" logo IIIrd jerseys as well for sale as they could be used to raise funds as well. They call it "Dave's Drive" in memory of the legend number #27 Dave Semenko whose skill in the fighting & bodychecking arena of hockey was just as valuable as any scoring player in helping the team win multiple Stanley Cups. It really is just an offshoot of the exact same idea of the old "Tiger Goldstick Fan Club." (Tiger would have been quite pleased to have Dave's name succeed him as its all about the kids first) with the assistance of the great John Short (over 80 & still writing awesome sports columns) collected used sporting goods. I as a a child got to help pick these items up & take them to Tiger's Depot for distribution. I believe this was at the old CFRN Television Broadcast Studios (now CTV Edmonton) Plus I got to meet many of these great kids at Edmonton Trappers Baseball Games in Tiger's Club Box.
So In This Election "Campaign" Season Please Support "Dave's Drive",

Dear Adriana:
Former Edmonton-Strathcona Green Party Of/De Canada Michael Kalamanovitch has indeed ceased campaigning early. But the votes cast for him are not "null & void" like people suggest. As Mike mentioned on 630 Ched Radio's "The Ryan Jespersen Show" this morning, he hasn't actually filed his withdrawal papers (they were due Sep. XXXth, MMXIX) & is just telling people to vote for the New Democratic Party Of/De Canada Heather McPherson instead. So folks who voted in the Advance Polls for him or on Special Ballot still will have their votes counted. It does go to show that the Green Party will quit early on you. Even their leader Elizabeth May (quite often drunk off her ass in public & refusing to get treatment) has spent 2/3rd of the election in her own riding as she isn't really gaining any traction. Thus proving that this is a party that should never form the federal government! Plus this whack job was on the Walterdale Bridge disrupting people's lives & traffic when he should have been at work running his shitty Earth's General Store! Good riddance freak! As for Greta Thunberg I have Asperger's Syndrome like her so I understand her autistic mindset but at least I can answer questions put to me, she's a fraud as she can't answer questions. All she does is read prepared statements written for her. Send her packing with a 1 way ticket back to Stockholm & a lifetime ban from Alberta! She's not welcome as far as I'm concerned we need our energy resources!

But some other swimmers here today expressed a frustration that they could not always get a hold of him even when his staff communicated on his behalf that he'd be getting back. Part of this can be explained as he has to live part of the year in Ottawa. But like any other riding in this, or in any election "it's a crapshoot."

So Liberal Defense Minister Hon. Harjit Sajjan, PC & Vancouver-South Candidate as well as Liberal Veterans Affairs Minister Hon. Lawrence MacAulay, PC & Cardigan Candidate are cutting the medical payments for veterans & armed forces personnel by 90% under the direction of Liberal Prime Minister Rt. Justin Trudeau, PC & Papineau Candidate. These are men & women who have served in peacekeeping &/or combat under fired & who work for wages & benefits much lower than what could get in the private sector. Soldiers and veterans should not have to fight tooth & nail & beg for what they are entitled to as part of their service! I was born on November XIth, MCMLXXIV (11th, 1974) so I feel really bad when those in service (or who have served) to this great country in the military get mistreated.
There really should be no upper limit on expenses for those who have served & those who are serving. You don't see that loser Chief Of Defense Staff Canadian Armed Forces Jon Vance getting any pay cuts do you? I guarantee any medical procedures he needs will be fully funded. Plus he got well over $100,000.00 in raises from the PMO to cover up for Mr. Trudeau's arrogance in the Vice-Admiral Mark Norman affair which the admiral was falsely accused of misconduct. Vance has had 5 Vice-Chiefs of Defense. Including the now Deputy Alberta Municipal Affairs Minister Paul Wynnyk who thought Vance so incompetent he retired after what 3.5 weeks on the job?

Dear Adriana:
As merchants get set up here for opening in less than an hour, I chat with a few over coffee in the breakfast area which opens before the Super Flea Market 10AM opening hour. What they & their customers care about is health care, how they are going to get steady jobs to feed themselves & their families. As well as senior care, child care, crumbling infrastructure, & endless debt plus living on the edge of homelessness from paycheque to paycheque & yes far too many refugees with absolutely no skills to contribute to The Dominion Of Canada except to suck it dry leaving less for Canadians & legal immigrants in both jobs & benefits. They don't give a "flying fuck" about whether Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau picks up an extra cheque as a substitute brown/black/1st Nations faced minstrel as they already know he's a class clown. Or if Conservative Leader Andy Scheer pays taxes in two countries and cannot actually sell insurance. Nor do they care that New Democratic Leader Jagmeet Singh cannot get a visa to enter India due to his "camel jockey" status. People need to survive & not worry that People's Party Leader Maxime Bernier is a psychotic spaz who couldn't lead a horse to water, or that Green Party Leader Elizabeth May is an open drunk. Or that the Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet has no business in the debates. People need jobs & economic stability so they can once again have happiness in life!

Grovenor School is where I would have had to vote if I was to have cast a ballot on Election, Monday, October XXIst, MMXIX itself. Folks across The Dominion Of Canada will vote in community halls, schools, places of worship, & all sorts of locations.

Dear Adriana:
In the never ending "campaign" against domestic & workplace violence, especially in this election season, we must hold our political leaders to account as well. On June XXVth, MMXIX, Fort McMurray Mayor Don Scott (an ex-PC Alberta MLA & Jim Prentice (may he rest in peace) cabinet minister as well I believe) is "alleged" to have both verbally & physically assaulted Ward 1 Fort Mac Councillor Keith McGrath. If true then the Mayor should of course resign & receive the same punishment as any citizen would get in a court of law. This is a situation not talked about that much where a man is "alleged" to have assaulted another man. But it can & is just a serious if it is a adult male/female or child or vice versa. Or if a say a teenager or adult is assaulting an elder or senior citizen.
All Bad All The Time,
Rory

Hon. Adriana LaGrange, MLA, Minister of Education, United Conservative, Red Deer-North
Dear Adriana:
The parliamentary election system is like 338Canada.Com & other sources say, it is really 338 separate contests so we at Executive Dissertations pick a sample & are focusing on just the riding of Edmonton-Griesbach (from within its borders for a true sense of realism) alone, we start off with the Conservative Candidate Mr. Kerry Diotte who is running for reelection for a IInd term. Candidate Diotte is worried about the deficits that are much higher than originally promised by the current Liberal administration. As well as the fact that students & their families are going to have to find a way to get rid of this debt eventually with less & less resources. For full disclosure, I live in Edmonton-Centre riding so have absolutely no bias whatsoever & thus am completely impartial on whom the next Griesbach MP should be.
Financial Shenanigans,

Dear Adriana:
I got to meet The Right Honourable Miss Georgia Hubick, Minister Of Being An Absolute Cutie, Conservative, All Of The Dominion Of Canada on the Andrew Scheer Leader's Tour Edmonton stop on palatial Jasper Avenue with her delightful mother Mrs. Kenzie Potter-Hubick. Plus at only ten weeks old she is babysitting her mommy while Big Sister Sloan looks after daddy back at home, a truly responsible young lady to be sure! Andy & Jill Scheer have agreed that he will step aside for Baby Georgia to take to over as the next Prime Minister as her cooing & gurgling is more intelligible than that of the current occupant & his "uh's" & "um's." As well as his poorly placed dramatic pauses. To be fair though, he's only a "substitute" drama teacher so doesn't have the proper timing, diction & grammar skills!

Dear Adriana:
There are several men & women here in this A&W signing & chatting about the federal election. A few candidate flyers are here as well. I have a deaf Uncle & Aunt so I can understand where they are coming from, & I am sure many families including students have hearing issues & other disabilities. We must make this election come "alive" for them visually & in other formats so they like any hearing person can make an informed decision & choose whom the best candidate is for them & whom they feel can contribute to the betterment of all Canadians in Her Majesty's next parliament.
Now Hear This,

Dear Adriana:
Here at the Alberta Urban Municipalities Association (AUMA) Convention I find the talk about the Hon. Andy Scheer, PC, Conservative Party Of Canada Leader & Conservative Candidate, Regina-Qu'Appelle amongst some delegates & the Tory plan to bring back 30 year mortgages interesting. Whilst Liberal Party Of/De Canada Leader & Papineau Candidate the Rt. Hon. Justin Trudeau, PC & his party are sticking with the current 25 year maximum. These delegates are real estate agents & mostly very receptive to this adjustment to the 3 decade mortgage plan as it gives homeowners & businesses more breathing room to use the monies for other improvements into their properties, thus letting them get more income at a quicker rate so as to pay their mortgages down faster. Which is clearly a "win, win" for both the the borrower & the lender such as a financial institution or mortgage broker.
As I have no real estate background I do find it interesting that some of the agents here are proposing 27.5 year mortgages, or the halfway point betwixt 25 & 30 years. Very intriguing indeed, as others are suggesting 32.5 & even 35 year mortgages. This is interesting as it will certainly provide for financing & banking jobs for Canadians.

The Political Dirty Tricks Machine Wins Again!

September XXVIth, MMXIX
Hon. Adriana LaGrange, MLA, Minister of Education, United Conservative, Red Deer-North
Dear Adriana:
Maybe your boss Hon. Premier Jason Kenney, MLA, United Conservative, Calgary Lougheed & fellow cabinet member Hon. Tyler Shandro, MLA, Minister of Health, United Conservative, Calgary-Acadia are geniuses or just doing this all for strategy. But appointing ex-PC MLA & Health Minister Stephen Mandel to the Alberta Health Services (AHS) Board, who was also Alberta Party Leader is actually quite smart. Especially as he will never resign to run for MLA again, thus precluding him from running as an Alberta Party MLA candidate in MMXXIII. So Kenney's keeping his enemies closer. Mandel should not have been allowed to run for MLA as he didn't file his papers on time, and then he ties up already overbooked Court Of Queen's Bench Chambers to ram his candidacy through, & sadly the "in"justice system let him run.
But sadly the "Mandelites" have won again. Here we have a 73 year old man (& Concordia University Chancellor) who coordinated & orchestrated the lie that his party member in Ardrossan had received a call from him saying vote for Jason Kenney & the UCP in the provincial election & that he was backing Kenney. The fact that Mr. Mandel didn't check the fact that the Ardrossan complainant also had a UCP membership card & received the robocall from Stephen Harper, not Stephen Mandel asking for support for his friend Jason. I have heard the entire message so I know that the UCP did nothing wrong. I am also glad that Mr. Mandel, Serena Mah, Katherine O'Neill & the Alberta Party executives were exposed in this & that "party" of jokers won 0 of 87 seats.
The "corporate media" such as the main tv networks & Calgary Herald columnist (Alberta Party shill) Don Braid fully participated (& took money from Liberal Leader Justin Trudeau to prevent them from going bankrupt) in this scheme & gave Mr. Mandel with a last ditch press conference to spread this crap is unbelievable! I was glad that Ezra Levant & Rebel Media exposed this. But with Mandel's AHS Board appointment it proves that in this election season that if you lie, & cheat, & raise taxes on people endlessly you will get rewarded. Nothing ever changes & with Mr. Mandel on the AHS Board, health spending will go up if anything. I just remind folks that this new board member was so popular as PC Alberta Health Minister he was tossed out after 7.5 months as an MLA. people have such short memories!
The Whole System Is Rigged & Rotten To The Core,
Rory

P.S.: I remind folks that folks in Edmonton-McClung voted Mr. Mandel into third place, thus showing how much he isn't wanted anywhere, even in the riding borders of where he live!
