Political Puppet Translation: Anti Albertan Inquiry Press Conference -Oct 21, 2021
Channel: Some Canadian News
Date: 2021-11-10

This is opinion and satire. This is not news. Matt Kenney is a fictional character that is meant to take a look at how ridiculous politicians speak around subjects without actually answering anything.

Politicians are beholden to the people. They must actively be working to understand our concerns and respond to them in a way that makes us feel heard and understood. That is the basics of their job as a representative. If they don't have the time to meet with every person they represent then they at least owe it to actually answer questions asked by reporters. Instead they deflect and gaslight. They filibuster their answers with prepared follow-up deflections so reporters don't have a chance to call out the fact they don't answer the question. Then they only give reporters 1 follow-up question that they also filibuster with prepared follow-up deflections.

Matt Kenney is here to help translate all this politispeak.

Imagine if Matt's Farmer's Market Stand advertised they thought all other farmer's market stands getting money from the foreign investors was wrong. Matt's FM Stand also receives money from foreign investors but that's not wrong. The other guys receiving foreign money to run their stands is wrong. That's what is happening right now.

If any Albertan were constantly being lied to by a farmer's market stand like our politicians do they would stop giving that stand their business. We have "cancelled" way more businesses for far less than what political parties have done. Why do we still worship to the gang system?

Our current political environment in Alberta does not promote transparency or honest communication. It promotes secrecy, speaking out of the side of your mouth, and rushing through omnibus bills. Alberta's The Breakdown does a great job at covering the many problems this province faces if you're interested in learning more from a legitimate reporter that puts time into fun and professional work.
