Pleased to welcome the Conservative Party National Convention to Calgary this weekend!
Between sessions, I hope you enjoy our shops, restaurants, and the many charms of a city where 4/10 people voted Liberal last election.

“At least six preventable deaths and more than 30 “near-misses” occurred in Alberta emergency departments since the beginning of the year because of overcrowding”
Call an election. We need government that is willing to act to save lives.

More evidence of the Wildrose takeover of Alberta’s mainstream Conservative Party.
At the recent Alberta Municipalities conference in Calgary, Premier Danielle Smith floated the idea of taking tax powers from municipalities. They aren't into it but do want the province to start collecting its own portion of property taxes. #yyccc #ableg

Tomorrow, at Elections Alberta, we will announce the number. But it’s not only about the number. We built a movement, a community of hope.
