Utter UCP failure
I spoke with the Edmonton Journal about Canada losing its measles elimination status — the only G7 country to do so.

40% of outbreaks are in Alberta, where the UCP blocked its top doctor from urging vaccines.

Politics should never come before public health.

Albertans deserve a government that believes in evidence-based health policy and respects healthcare professionals!
40% of measles outbreaks in Canada were in Alberta.

Premier Danielle Smith catered to anti-vax sentiments & led the charge for Canada to lose measles elimination status.

A big step back for public health.

Albertans deserve government that values science & evidence-based health policies.
Families, seniors, and patients deserve better.

Alberta is facing outbreaks and waitlists while the government fails to provide clear leadership.

Decisions must be based on science and expert advice, not politics.

First, they came for the teachers - and we spoke out! Because together, we’re better.

So great to celebrate the work of Alberta talent. Here I am with Glenn Rollans VP Book Publishers Association of Alberta and Brush Publishers executive.

Also met with Megan Bishop Executive Director of Book Publishers of Alberta.

Nearly half a million Albertans have said it loud and clear: we’re proud Canadians.

It’s time for the UCP to admit they were wrong and join us in denouncing separatism once and for all.

Albertans don't want division. As proud Canadians, we reject separatism.

There’s much more hard work head as we continue fighting for public education in Alberta!
It’s been a powerful first week back in the Legislature: I’ve heard from teachers, parents, students, and so many Albertans who stand with us as we fight for the future of our province.

The work continues on, and we’re just getting started.

Does the Minister of Hospitals agree with his colleague that medical professionals' experience and expertise must be central to public health decisions?

He didn’t answer. 👀 Watch to the end for the Minister of Children’s letter.

Instead of putting in the hard work to actually govern, the UCP is trampling on workers Charter rights.
The UCP is using the notwithstanding clause to dodge the Charter of Rights for five years because they know their law won’t hold up.

In Question Period, the Minister admitted what scares him most: labour unrest.

Well, Minister... you’ve got it.

“….Who would work for a government that actively suppresses its workers’ rights?”

When you’ve lost the public’s trust, the only choice left is to resign.

Nicolaides must resign
Demetrios Nicolaides stood by while the UCP silenced teachers. Now he’s forcing them back to overcrowded classrooms with no support, no solutions, and no respect.

He’s failed teachers, students, and families.
It’s time for him to resign.

We won’t stop standing up for Alberta teachers and students.
Danielle Smith is using the notwithstanding clause to protect herself while crushing individuals' Charter rights.

That’s not freedom, that’s cowardice.

And Albertans won’t stand for it.

A shameful abuse of power
The erosion of Albertans' rights is so wrong.

Alberta students and teachers deserve better than the UCP!
As I take my seat in Question Period for the first time today, I will be fighting for teachers and students and standing up for public education. /1

Happy Flashback Friday! Last weekend, I had the pleasure to attend the Canora Community League Hall Retrofit and Revitalization Groundbreaking ceremony.

Community Leagues are important hubs for families and neighbours, and this project will help make Canora a better neighbourhood for everyone.

Public healthcare is too important. We can’t allow corruption under the UCP gov’t to erode our system.
October 20, 2025 at 6:16 PM
These are just some of the post cards my office has received from teachers concerned about the UCP’s lack of support for our public education system.

Our funding is the lowest in the country. This should not be the case. Albertans deserve better.

Albertans deserve transparency and accountability. The UCP must release the findings of the Corrupt Care report.
