I’m not going to mince words.
White supremacy, homophobia & racism have been supported & encouraged for too long in politics.
Anyone participating in the Prosperity Project / Rebel Media Debate, should be held accountable for supporting this toxic culture.1/

If I become leader of our party & Premier of Alberta, there will be no room for those who support this agenda - Alberta has a set of core values, and they are in direct opposition to what’s on display here.
Today I’m putting my foot down, and saying enough, do better.

Thank you Leela for standing up for decency. Sadly I don’t believe many of your UCP colleagues would agree. The UCP has ruined our education and health systems. They have made Alberta an embarrassment and have destroyed my trust in govt.
@LeelaAheer
I have met you a few times and thought you were nice. Wasn’t sure if you would be on my ballot yet but I now have my answer. NO! Been to a few APP rally’s and never sensed a hint of racism.
@copperhead226
That is awesome. I need you to know authentically where I’m at-and you have every right to make your choice based on that. Completely fair. I wish you nothing but the best.
@LeelaAheer
As former President & co-founder of Alberta Prosperity Project, as a proud Metis with ancestral ties to my fourth Great Grandfather, Chief Black Powder, in knowing that APP’s followers represents all demographics of Alberta, your comment is misinformed & unbecoming of an MLA.

Just cross the floor?
Why are you still party to the UCP when it’s obvious your values are completely aligned with Liberal/NDP values. Why masquerade as a conservative shill when you can garner broad support otherwise?
@LeelaAheer
If that's the case, you're running for leader of the wrong party. The UCP's foundations lay in white supremacy. The party harbours open racists and white supremacists. It's part of the fabric of the party.
