Big thanks to Hank Jr for the tune and to Tracy Allard UCP for the inconceivable selfishness that led to the inspiration for this song. Enjoy.”.Allard was ordered back to Alberta after Premier Jason Kenney discovered she had left her Grande Prairie riding for the sun and surf of Hawaii to continue “a 17-year family holiday tradition.”. Mossleigh pub briefly opens before authorities move in .Her flight-of-fancy came when the province was in full COVID-19 pandemic lockdown, complete with health recommendations against non-essential travel from her own government..But that was just the beginning of Kenney’s problems as it turned out a total of nine UCP MLAs and staffers had ignored the guidelines and flown abroad, that we know of so far..Kenny held a much-maligned press conference on Fiday when he said he would not be firing Allard because he hadn’t made it clear enough to his caucus and staff they shouldn’t be heading for the beach when Christmas has been cancelled for most Albertans..A top Tory source told the Western Standard Allard will resign as Municipal Affairs Minister later Monday..Here’s some lyrics from Masters’ new song..“Now stop and think it over, put yourself in my mother’s position..“Nine months lock alone in an old folks home, cuz of Allard’s Tradition..“Why not rethink it, Jason, yeah, why not rethink, turf those selfish folk.“MLA recall for ignoring health warnings, where’s the vote..“People are damn near dying, your team’s in Hawaii and Great Britain,.“Your moral are shot, can you smell the rot, of the Allard Family Tradition.”.The full tune can be heard here:.Dave Naylor is the News Editor of the Western Standard.dnaylor@westernstandardonline.com.Twitter.com/nobby769
