Danielle Smith Dodges Trouble; Dominates UCP AGM Vote
Description

26:00 | Remember Collin May? Formerly the chief of the Alberta Human Rights Commission, he was fired by then-Minister Tyler Shandro under controversial circumstances. May gives us his side of the story, updates us on his court action, explains why he takes issue with Jespo's take on the UCP's "Jordan Peterson Law," and tells us why we should "never apologize".
1:28:10 | Tough news to share. We're crushed by the passing of our dear friend Kathleen McGee. Ryan remembers the beloved comedian. We honour the life and legacy of Justice Murray Sinclair.
1:32:35 | Shout out to the dozens of volunteers at the Pandemic Planting Project! We share details of their recent harvest, which sent more than 100,000 lbs of veggies to Edmonton's Food Bank.
