LETTER: Average Albertans deserve a raise

And so the high-handedness of this government continues.
LETTERS

And so the high-handedness of this government continues. While school support staff across the province are striking for a decent living wage, nurses are looking for improved wages and working conditions and the average Joe is struggling to put food on his table our illustrious leader deems it a good time to give the MLA’s a raise. Because you know, they only make $120,000 per year and need to remain ‘comparable’ in order to attract good people? Also interesting to note that the committee set up to decide this was composed of five UCP members and four opposition members and the vote was passed 5 - 4. What a surprise!
Seriously, I hope that the everyday citizens of Alberta are following this, as it is another example of the under-handed, sneaky tactics that this government utilizes to push through their hidden agenda!
