The health of democracy comes down to three basic questions: Are the rules applied equally? Is government accountable? And is it actually serving the public? In this episode, political scientists Dr. Jared Wesley and Dr. Feo Snagovsky put Alberta’s UCP government to the test in our feature interview (3:15) presented by Mercedes-Benz Edmonton West.
