Guess she got the message and now the backpeddling begins.
It has come to our attention that certain individuals or organizations are attempting to misuse the 1905 Committee’s brand to create false narratives about our purpose. Since our inception, we have faced numerous attacks, seemingly from those who wish to discredit our mission by spreading fabrications and misinformation.
For those familiar with our work, you know our message has always been clear: we are committed to promoting principled governance, sound policies, and holding the government accountable. We believe that a promise made must be a promise kept. Politicians are accountable to the people who elected them, and they must act in the best interest of all Albertans, upholding truth and the rule of law.
Albertans are frustrated with the cycle of empty speeches, broken promises, and poor performance from our elected officials. Too often, we hear excuses for why they cannot deliver on their commitments. But there comes a time when enough is enough. Real change requires sustained public pressure, and the 1905 Committee has been applying that pressure. Our efforts have not gone unnoticed. However, instead of addressing the issues we've raised, some have chosen the easier path of attacking us with false narratives and outright lies.
To set the record straight, we want to address the recent rumors head-on. The claims that the 1905 Committee has paid leftists to join the UCP to vote against Danielle Smith are false and defamatory. This raises a critical question however: who is spreading these lies, and why?
As an organization we value individual freedom and respect each person’s right to vote according to their conscience. The 1905 Committee has always asked for your support on our policies, but we have never dictated how anyone should vote on the issue of Danielle Smith’s leadership review. That decision is yours alone.
In today's climate, challenging the government's narrative is risky, as those in power often retaliate against those who dare to dissent.
While there are groups and individuals that may seek to remove Danielle Smith, this is not a directive of the 1905 Committee. Our intent is to hold government to account, regardless of leadership.
Thank you for your continued support in standing up for principled governance and the future of Alberta.
Sincerely,
1905 Committee

Hubby and I are starting the process of preparing our acreage in case we want to sell it and move. We both agree we will hold our noses and vote UCP because the other option is worse but we will never support Danielle again. We will invest no time or money in UCP with Danielle and the good ole boys at the helm. Once she is elected, we will support a change of leadership. She has done lots of little things but none of the big things. The Bill of Rights means nothing. She has not pursued any of the policies of her campaign nor most of the policies put forth by the members at the AGM. We are furious with ourselves for trusting her twice. The worst kind of dupe. We knew she crossed the floor inviting the NDP in once but this feels an awful lot like another floor crossing. I don’t trust her anymore.
I was doing ok with it, still frustrated but then she had to say that separatist are not welcome in OUR party.
As I said, I will vote UCP but it’s not going to get my time, money or...
Copy and paste post from Jordon Kosik (the original Admin from the Holding MLA’s Accountable Facebook Page):
“I NEVER THOUGHT I’D SAY THIS, BUT SOMETIMES I THINK COVID WAS EASIER THAN THIS POLITICAL CIRCUS.
At least back then, we knew what we were fighting for.
There’s a reason I’ve largely stayed out of the Alberta independence movement. And it’s not because I don’t believe in Alberta or its future. It’s because I’m exhausted watching conservatives fight conservatives, watching the constant division, the accusations, the vote-splitting arguments, and the never-ending political games.
It’s the same circus, different clowns.
Let me take you back a few years.
When I first got involved in activism during COVID, before the vaccine mandates, my goal was actually pretty simple: GET PEOPLE ENGAGED WITH THEIR ELECTED REPRESENTATIVES.
You’d be surprised how many people didn’t know what an MLA was, what an MP was, or who actually represented them.
People were sitting in Facebook groups, arguing with one another, preaching to the same echo chambers, while the politicians responsible for making decisions ...
