She hasn't been in Parliament since she resigned, but she is still getting paid by the taxpayer to do her job and attend Parliament.
Seems she still doesn't understand!!

Redford was a good Premier for the most part but she drank her own kool aiide
After a period a short period of time she began to revel in the life of a politician
and she took perks that ware not hers to take. Once that happens the good things
are out weighed by the lack of judgement it is unfortunate.
She is intelligent from a knowledge point of view something the Wild Rose leader
lacked and it showed during the campaign
I am not of the right most of the time but she is a person who did some good things
and she was a conservative not a babbling Reform wing conservative either
The problem is she was they kind of Tory that was acceptable by others
Unfortunately she succumbed to temptation and that rendered her useless politically

She was little different from her predecessors; but she is a woman not a man.
People forgive men more easily as most men do not have a head for finance or honesty.

That's kind of a strange thing to say considering those position are mostly occupied by men. It was also strange to me that when there were massive budget problems in one of our hospitals here and we had to get them cleaned up before the government stepped in, they made it known they were looking for a female because they felt it would be better managed. That shocked me frankly, that they could let that float out there without getting into big trouble.
