I am convinced that this accusation is an outlier. Albertans have been on the side of teachers

throughout this. Thank you for representing this riding so well, please keep it up.

I do not believe many people in your riding will sign the petition. Nice to know you let your constituents know that someone has filed a recall petition. The UCP must be feeling really threatened by your presence in the legislature.

Keep up the good work. This smacks of a political "revenge" plot.

Keep fighting! These are only attempts to demoralize you and the NDP. They won't be successful because you DO represent the majority. You're an active member of the Beddignton Community and you have more support than haters. I used to live in your riding (i dont anymore)

a small group (very small) group of disgruntled UCP voters who don't like the fact that you stood up for teachers.... These folks need a shake. Don't worry, they are spinning their wheels...out of desperation. You've obviously gotten under the skin of Nicolaides....good for you. You're doing your job. Thanks for being you.

I'm not in your constituency. I can confirm that you and your staff took the time, nonetheless, to respond to my concerns about the direction of public education in Alberta. Thank you.

Keep up the good work Amanda! Sometimes, encountering resistance is an indication that you are, in fact, on the right path. I think that’s definitely the case here.

What a sad waste of time and energy. I'm sorry this is happening.

I appreciate the information that is shared by you and the NDP. If there was no opposition party that did this, there would be worse outcomes as there would not be any accountability by the UCP to explain or prove their actions. Great job for this work as it is thankless by those who only believe a party that is no longer conservative but a united party (UCP) that is mostly Wildrose. Only the name has been changed to protect the guilty.

Amanda, I am not surprised that someone will try to get you out of office, you have been a strong voice for me and your constituents. You keep us informed with emails and newsletters. Keep up the good work it makes me feel hopeful. Maybe I'll put up my sign, I think I still have a sign with your name on it from the last election. Or maybe you should sell signs again for $25. I will buy another. I'll contribute anyway, but I think the sign idea may show your support in the community. And keep people away from my door with a petition.

You, and the opposition members you work with, are examples of how politics and politicians should be responsive and responsible for your entire constituency. Thank you
