Alberta introduces bill for $2.8B in inflation-fighting payouts, rollbacks
Alberta NDP finance critic Shannon Phillips said despite weeks of anticipation, Albertans still don’t have clear answers as to when they will receive some of these benefits.
“This provides no certainty whatsoever for families who are struggling and need these extra supports,” Phillips said in a statement. “Clearly, the UCP government does not have their act together and their plan is extremely back-of-the-napkin. This package of initiatives leaves out two million Albertans, which points to the UCP’s lack of competence, professionalism and any real understanding of their actions and how they impact the lives of ordinary people.“In addition, a number of these initiatives are quite limited in scope, whether we are talking about electricity rebates or the natural gas piece.
“Given the incompetent performance of this government over the last three years with their handling of pandemic supports, Albertans have not been given any assurances that there will be a smooth rollout of any of these benefits and the answers that were given today don’t inspire confidence in that regard.”
