Default Alberta government officially scraps bill that would get rid of Daylight Saving Time

About time.

https://globalnews.ca/news/3833827/a...t-saving-time/


Now if they can apply the same to other bills that have been a waste of time
Like say the Carbon Tax and Bill 6 and so forth
and things may start to get better around here again.

Default I don't think that is what is going on.

Maybe it is just my spidey sense, but I think that the gov't is looking for "wedge" issues on our dime.

They have one, the Catholic school boards, sexuality and consent.

Others that they are researching, atv's on crown land, land owner licenses, and others I have forgotten.

A wedge issues is one the other side opposes and one the voters you are trying to attract likes.

The voters the NDs are looking to appeal to are; youth, immigrants and women.

Pay attention you will find more for sure.
