Elected or not, Liberal leader David Swann says his party will push for equal pay across the province upon returning to the Alberta Legislature.

Swann made the announcement in Edmonton Wednesday morning.

He tells 660News, Alberta is sorely lacking and needs to play catch up compared to the rest of the country.

Alberta has fallen way behind, compared to the rest of the world in pay equity, its shocking really, he said. Our children, our mothers, our grandmothers have been paid at the rate of 2/3rds of anyone else doing the same job, its not acceptable and we want to see some legislation that will fix that.

Were catching up the rest of the country. Saskatchewan pays 80 cents on the dollar that men get for the same rate and I would hasten to add its not just women that are unfairly treated, farm workers are paid significantly less in many cases and that needs to be addressed as well. We want equality for the same job.

The long-time politician and doctor calls it shameful that the provinces leadership hasnt taken this issue on and adds it should be about fairness.

We want to see the government enact legislation that would require all workplaces to demonstrate they are negotiating fairly and providing equal pay for work of equal value, thats as simple as we can put it, that sometimes can mean a negotiation framework that everyone knows when they go into a job opportunity. They can start to talk from the same language about what equity framework looks like and they can challenge bosses that are not living up to that framework.

He says the Liberals themselves are working very hard to get more women into politics, right now they have 6 which would be about 20 per cent of their compliment, but adds this isnt a favourable climate and theyre working hard to change that.

They plan on introducing it through a motion, a resolution or even a bill to get pay equity.

When I think about my own daughters, my patients, when I was a doctor, struggling with feeling discriminated against and devalued but also not being able to make payments on some of the most basic aspects of their lives.

The federal Liberals are still at the top of the Nanos Party Power Index, but the New Democrats are on a definite upward trend, according to the latest week-over-week numbers.

Over the past six weeks, Thomas Mulcairs New Democrats have climbed two points in the Nanos Index, while Stephen Harpers Conservatives have dipped two points out of a possible 100:

Supporters jumping ship?

The New Democrats have picked up momentum in the key battlegrounds of Ontario and the Prairies, two regions where Conservatives have faltered over the past month or so.

Some Conservative voters might be shifting their support to the NDP, or potentially using the polls as a way to register their dissatisfaction with the Tories.

The orange upswing is also likely recognition of the job Mulcair and the New Democrats have done hammering the Conservative party over the anti-ISIS mission expansion to Syria and the anti-terrorism bill.

While the New Democrats are trending positively, its still too early to say whether well be looking at a three-horse race for the October federal election.

The Duffy effect

The trial of suspended Senator Mike Duffy began Tuesday, which could potentially impact the polls over the next several weeks.

While greater knowledge alone is unlikely to overcome the political divide on climate change, conservatives and liberals become less polarized when the perception of harm increases, according to a new study by the University of Michigan and Ohio State University.

Lead author Sol Hart, U-M assistant professor of communication studies, and colleagues examined how attention to science and political news may influence the public's knowledge, risk perception and support for climate change policies. The data came from a nationally representative survey involving more than 1,200 people funded by the School of Communication at Ohio State University and the National Science Foundation.

Paying attention to science news reports on climate change increased knowledge for both conservatives and liberals, the study found. Attention to science news also raised conservative perceptions of harm closer to what liberals believed.

In contrast, increased attention to political news was not associated with knowledge gains for liberals or conservatives. Attention to political news did not impact perceptions of harm for liberals, but lowered perceptions of harm for conservatives.

The direct effect of knowledge on policy support was positive for liberals but negative for conservatives. In contrast, increased perceptions of harm were associated with more policy support for liberals and conservatives.

The results suggest some promising pathways for science communicators, Hart said.

"For conservative audiences, employing science/environmental news platforms to highlight the potential harm and risks of climate change, rather than focusing on factual knowledge, may increase policy support among this segment," Hart said.

Furthermore, improving the accuracy of climate change coverage in political news outlets and reducing false-balancewhich provides equal weight to climate advocates and deniersespecially in those outlets that lean conservative, may diminish the direct negative influence of political news on perceived harm and policy support exhibited in the analysis, Hart said.

Hart and colleagues noted that their study measured policy attitudes but did not observe voting behavior.
