Merit-based hiring? From the UCP? Are you kidding?
Insecure leaders donāt hire competent people. They hire people who wonāt threaten their position.
The UCP has spent years pushing competent people out and replacing them with political loyalists. Now they want to lecture Albertans about hiring the best person for the job?
This is about saving face with a base that has lost confidence in the UCP.
With an AGM looming, court cases mounting and RCMP investigations underway, the Premier needs distractions.
Meanwhile, governing takes a backseat. Affordability, healthcare and the issues affecting Albertans every day are left unaddressed.
This isnāt about competency. Itās about political survival from a government increasingly out of touch.

The best person for the job should get the job. Period.
Today we tabled legislation that would ensure hiring and promotion decisions in the public sector are based on merit, not DEI policies. Mandatory workplace training will be relevant to the roles and responsibilities of the employee, instead of mandatory DEI sessions.
Every Albertan deserves a fair shot, and fairness means everyone competes on the same terms.

In 1958, Muriel Billes hit upon an idea.
Why not introduce a form of store currency in the form of a coupon?
She took her idea to her husband Alfred, the president of Canadian Tire.
Thus Canadian Tire Money was born.
This is the story.
