Would You Eat This?

While Nanny Redford and her cronies live high off the hog with our money, our seniors in facilities around the province are being subjected to eating crap like this:



Would you eat this?  Would Redford or any of her minions eat this?  I highly doubt. So why do our seniors have to?  This is down right criminal!  I wouldn't feed crap like that to my dog never mind feeding it to a human. Our seniors deserve much better. Some of that taxpayer money that MLAs pay themselves should go to serving healthy nutritious meals to our seniors. Our seniors have worked  hard contributing to the province.This is how they're treated? Shameful!  Call your MLA today and demand our seniors be served real food.  That's the least we can do. It's disgraceful what's going on in our seniors care facilities.

BTW, can anyone tell me what this crap is?

Update: This tweet from Danielle Smith
It is supposed to be pork souvlaki. Our seniors critic sent the picture to me. More here:
More: 
 “Dog Food”
Nursing staff at the Claresholm facilities say the heat-and-serve diet has been a disaster for the residents.

Susan Slade, chair of Local 041 (ANC) and a Claresholm resident, said the food situation has become “a major problem” between staff and management and a cancer on morale.
“They told me that one resident referred to it as ‘dog food’” Slade said.
Staff are telling her they’re convinced that because so many are not eating properly, they’re getting sick more often and staying sick longer. While they don’t have any concrete data, the staff is certain that they’re seeing more cases like urinary tract infections, while wounds seem to take longer to heal.
“They might be saving money in the kitchen, but the staff figure it’s costing more for medications and antibiotics,” Slade said.
 Watch this video, it's an eye opener.

Does The Government Owe You A Family?




A report released this week is advocating that the Alberta government pay for IVF (in vitro fertilization) treatments for infertile couples like Quebec does.

A report released this week is pushing the Alberta government to adopt the tack taken in Quebec by paying for IVF treatments for infertile women: commissioned by a local fertility charity, the study suggested the province could save $78-million in the next five years. That’s because multiple births — which according to Statistics Canada increased by 45% between 1991 and 2008 — are also more likely to lead to premature births, underweight babies and higher rates of disability.
Yet desperate would-be parents footing the bill for expensive fertility treatments often demand multiple embryos be implanted, regardless of the risks.
  For a lot of women, your life isn't complete until you have a child.   For some getting pregnant is difficult and sometimes heartbreaking when it doesn't work out so they seek outside help. It costs a lot of money and can cause a financial strain

 I really feel for these folks but should the taxpayer being paying for their treatments?  I don't know.  Why can't some charity or foundation take up the cause and help these people out instead of leaving it up to the taxpayer to foot the bill?

So Nanny Redford Finally Vows to Defend the Oil Sands.

Days ago Premier Brad Wall came out swinging at Thomas Mulcair who slammed the oil sands in a CBC weekend interview referring to the oilsands as,"Dutch disease."  A couple days ago I asked where was Premier Alison Redford on this. Well she's finally decided to crawl out from underneath her rock.   
“I expect that we’re probably in for a bit of a crazy summer,” Redford said before discussing Mulcair’s comments.
“I always think it’s better for people to comment once they have the information than before they do.”
The premier said she will spend her time expanding provincial markets while making the case to the United States that Alberta’s energy sector is the most “secure, responsible and environmentally conscious supplier, and always will be.”
 The premier talked about her Canadian energy strategy, still broadly defined as having the provinces work together to take advantage of the country’s national resources, saying the country can manage the impact of major projects “to ensure that Canada remains beautiful.”
“And we’ll do it without compromising provincial sovereignty,” she said.
 Not quite as forceful as Brad Walls response.
 The comment drew the ire of several western politicians, including Wall, who tweeted Monday: "If Thomas Mulcair thinks a strong resource sector is a 'disease,' what is his 'cure'? Higher resource taxes? NDP needs to explain", and; "Resources have been the cure not the problem, NDP."
 So she now vows to defend our oil sands. Huh uh, just like she vowed to call a full public inquiry into doctor intimidation. Instead the inquiry is only investigating cue jumping. And yuh, just like she supported the boycott on Chiquita bananas too. . She's mealy mouthed and flip flops on everything.

 BTW, anyone have any clue what she means by "Canadian energy strategy?"

Indoctrinating The Children? Say It Isn't So

Unbelievable!
  TORONTO - “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” — Vladimir Lenin 
 One school seems to be sowing the seeds of hate against the Jews. Another seems to be training third graders to learn how to be professional protesters against capitalism and The Harper government.




These are our future leaders. Scary!

 Proverbs 22:6
King James Version (KJV)
6 Train up a child in the way he should go: and when he is old, he will not depart from it.
