Today, I attended the Remembrance Day Ceremony at the Kingsway Legion.
We remembered all those who have served and continue to serve Canada. Those who served in war and in peace. Your sacrifice and dedication will never be forgotten.
Lest we forget.

Unbelievable.
This AM UCP MLAs voted to undermine the crucial work of the Auditor General & Chief Electoral Officer on an investigation into gov’t corruption & petitions to recall their colleagues.
Unprecedented & unacceptable levels of arrogance & entitlement.

Let’s keep supporting our teachers to defend our public education system and create a better future for our province.

Alberta's students are worth so much more than the lowest per-student funding in the country.
Investing in education is the BEST thing we could do to build a better future for our province. We'll never stop fighting for that.

We've received a leaked cabinet document showing that the Premier plans to increase co-pays for prescriptions.
This will force seniors to pay hundreds of millions more for their medications.
Cuts, cruelty and corruption. That’s the UCP playbook.

Across Canada, provinces are raising minimum wages this October to help workers.
In Alberta, the UCP refuses to act. Minimum wage has been frozen at $15 since 2018, the lowest in the country.
Families are struggling with rising rent and groceries while the government does nothing.
Unacceptable!
