Elections Alberta announced Friday that six additional recall petitions have failed, while one was withdrawn by the applicant before verification was completed.
The petition targeting Premier Danielle Smith in Brooks–Medicine Hat required 12,070 signatures but gathered just 2,317.
Other petitions showed similar results:
Peter Singh (Calgary-East): 556 signatures of 8,593 required
Tanya Fir (Calgary-Peigan): 2,093 of 13,051 required
Rebecca Schulz (Calgary-Shaw): 211 of 15,000 required
Adriana LaGrange (Red Deer-North): 2,415 of 11,174 required
Nate Glubish (Strathcona–Sherwood Park): 1,326 of 15,770 requiredMeanwhile, the recall petition against Calgary-Beddington MLA Amanda Chapman was withdrawn before verification.
But these are only the latest failures.
I’m surprised Chili Clown Carney, the earl of Salad, hasn’t tried recall to get his majority.
Canadians are content to let it burn. Or did I read that incorrectly?
L – So, this means the U.C.P. are more popular than the MSM are reporting.
Yes indeed. 338 Canada has the polls and if an election were held today, the UCP would increase their majority.
It’s unfortunate that this sort of recall legislation isn’t at the federal level, though it would only help in one of the past 4 ridings where the MP has crossed the floor, that being in Edmonton, originally won by a Conservative.
“For democracy” as they say…
Meanwhile, the slob formerly known as Mayor Nenshi is rumoured to be eyeing up a federal Liberal MP job when his disastrous foray into AB provincial politics ends (soon).
My opinion is that Mr. Nenshi will move to federal politics as their pension is better than the AB MLA’s pension, and he’s got the City of Calgary pension, so why not?
Tubby needs to be fed.
Nenshi is a political grifter. The guy is worthless.
Now do Nenshi, who looks like a blow up doll from some nightmare.
yep.
corpulent is the word. a sign of a gross indulgent personality.

My wife and I had the misfortune to run into the ass at a pub when he was Mayor. The guy is so high on himself it made me want to puke.
Nenshi is a widely loathed, petty, insufferable POS who mistakenly believes he’s the smartest one in the room. This corpulent, far-left, criminally incompetent prick is despised by everyone who knows him.
He is the very literal definition of a pinko commie faggot.
There was a time when that was rightly seen as an insult.
