Episode 19: Dropping the hammer, with Thomas Lukaszuk (Part 2)

In part two of our interview with Thomas Lukaszuk, the longtime Progressive Conservative MLA, cabinet minister and former Deputy Premier looks back at some of the portfolios he oversaw, the hard decisions he had to implement, some of the regrets that he has and the responsibility he feels, in hindsight, for the consequences of governing.

Listen to Part 1 here.

Lukaszuk offers advice for fellow Albertans who feel like they’re without a political home, talks about the differences between opposing Rachel Notley’s governance and opposing Jason Kenney’s, and takes aim at the current government and its unabashed neoliberal approach to running the province.

Take it from a man who has personally known every premier since the 1970s… the UCP is nothing like Albertans have ever seen before.
