UCP members have voted yes to refuse to follow federal order on the electrical grid and they voted no to encourage the government to slash AHS 'sunshine list' in half..On Saturday, UCP members voted on 10 governance policies and 20 policy resolutions for the party..One of those policies passed to include new wording..Updated wording will now include, "Instruct the Alberta Electric System Operator (AESO) to not implement the federal government's net-zero power grid plan.".The rationale for the wording changes is that the federal government has pledged Canada will achieve 100% net-zero emitting electricity systems by 2035..UCP members also voted no on whether to encourage the government to slash AHS 'sunshine list' in half.A resolution suggested the “sunshine list” of AHS staff (position of management/administration earning more than $140,000) should be reduced from over 900 to 200..More than 600 Alberta nurses made it onto the province’s sunshine list, but members voted no this weekend to slashing the list..In fact, one nurse took home more than $240,000 a year, according to documents obtained by the Canadian Taxpayers Federation..A recent report published by the OECD showed that the AHS had 10 times as many administrators per capita than the most efficient universal health care systems..The document stated that the province needs more health providers and less managers. The lack of nurses, family physicians, and other healthcare practitioners means Albertans wait longer for health services than the majority of the developed world, whilst paying more in taxes..Prolonged wait times for cancer and heart disease have been associated with increased risk of morbidity and mortality.
