Why are conservative parties not only always deeply corrupt and often doing illegal things... but also traitorous?
The UCP, "Centurion Project" and "Republican Party of Alberta" are all so tainted with this scandal that Jason Kenney... yes Jason Kenney... is playing the victim.
I feel bad for Albertans, but they've also brought a lot of it on themselves by voting these bozos in time and time again.

Just finished "The Bodyguard Unit" written by Clément Xavier, illustrated by Lisa Lugrin, with colors by Albertine Ralenti and translated from French to English by Edward Gauvin. An excellent and fascinating history of Edith Garrud, a Jiu-Jutsu instructor who helped train suffragettes in Britain to fight the police, and who fought alongside them at speeches and political rallies. It also of course has a lot of details of the suffragette movement, many of which I theoretically knew but never actually thought about, and others which I was totally unaware of, especially the degree of violence and the connections to other radical movements of the time.
An excellent graphic novel, both educational and funny.

»Als der Zunftzwang fiel und die vielgepriesene Gewerbefreiheit kam, was hatte dann diese zu geben? Wo Gesetze aufhören zu sein, drängt sich die Unordnung an ihre Stelle, die bis zur Verwilderung ausarten kann. Ich fürchte, dass man schliesslich noch dazu kommt, den Buchrücken weg zu schneiden und zu verleimen, was auch schon ernstlich vorgeschlagen worden ist.«
Aus: Alfred Furler – Der Buchbinder (1989). Das Zitat wird darin Emanuel Steiner zugeschrieben und müsste von ca. 1900 sein.
