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?"

After she got the boot from the UCP party for her comments, she was elected as an independent.

She is a true representative of the shit-cookie lovin' people.

Despite the comments, Johnson was elected in May as an independent member.
