REALITY CHECK: WHERE IN THE WORLD IS JASON KENNEY?

EDMONTON- PC leader Jason Kenney hasn't been seen by the media for 32 days, following his original comments on outing kids who join a GSA, yet he’s still made time to fundraise for his friends in British Columbia.

Kenney fundraised at a $500-a-plate dinner in Vancouver, even as he claimed in a tweet that the purpose of his trip was to attend a conference. The Conservative Party’s own riding association tweeted photos of the fundraiser.^[1]

Kenney found time to campaign in B.C. and attend multiple events^[2] but still has not held a scrum with Alberta reporters since his infamous March 28 comments about gay-straight alliances. As the leader of Alberta Legislative Assembly’s third party, he’s avoided facing the music in front of the free press for more than a month.

Kenney’s priorities are his conservative friends and insiders, not everyday Albertans and their families.
