UCP leadership candidate Brian Jean says there will be no more future lockdowns in Alberta if he becomes premier, despite what other candidates are telling people..Jean recently spoke on the Shaun Newman Podcast debate and claims "One of my opponents seems determined to say that I am for lockdowns" after his response to a question during the debate..Jean told the Western Standard via email this is "the exact opposite is the truth."."They have been shopping this clip to the media and I want people to watch it. Watch the clip, it is clear that not only am I against lockdowns, but that I would change the laws to prevent future premiers from doing what happened in the last two years," Jean said.."The interviewer clearly understood I said this cannot happen again and I said we needed to put in laws that made sure what happened over the last two years does not happen again," Jean told the Western Standard in an email.."I am the only one with a plan to change the laws and bind future premiers to prevent them from doing what Jason Kenney did.".Jean said his position on lockdowns should be loud and clear for Albertans despite what other candidates may be saying about his position.."I have been solid and consistent on this issue, but one of my opponents seems to want to mislead Albertans on my position and I have no idea why they are doing that," Jean said.."I hope everyone watches the whole round-table that happened in Vermillion."
