Jennifer Johnson, Lacombe-Ponoka legislature member, has been welcomed back into the United Conservative Party (UCP).

Johnson was banned in 2023 over comments where she compared the issue of transgender students in Alberta's schools to baking cookies with feces inside.

โ€œWe can be top three per cent but that little bit of poop is what wrecks it,โ€ Johnson said in audio from a 2022 talk at the Western Unity Group in Stettler.

โ€œThis is more than a teaspoon of poop in the cookie batch, right?"

Interesting. Anecdotally from my time living in Northern Alberta there is a strong Mormon presence there. Where I live now in AB as well, there's quite a few small towns that are 90% Mormon or more. So I'm still inclined to believe that, but I have no real evidence other than my experience.
