I met a recent graduate who told us she was considering leaving Edmonton because she couldn’t find stable work in her field. Like her, too many young people feel uncertain about their future here. Edmontonians are builders, innovators, and hard-working people.

Tomorrow is Election Day and I'm so grateful to see at how far we've come. What officially began in January has ended up being a journey of strength, tenacity, and sacrifice, and every bit of it has been worth it.

Everyday on the doors, I hear about affordability. A couple in Heritage Valley waited over a year for an affordable unit near their family but had to move 40 minutes away. Here’s my plan to help keep costs down for Edmontonians.

Election day is in 4 days and Ward Ipiihkoohkanipiaohtsi is in full autumn and Halloween mode! It's so picturesque to doorknock in neighbourhoods where the leaves are falling and the neighbours are decorating.

This morning, I joined dozens of Edmontonians who braved the cold to walk along Ellerslie Road in support of teachers!
As a mother of 2 school-aged children who love their teachers, and an educator myself, I know the vital role teachers play in our community and I can’t thank them enough.

Proud to join THOUSANDS of Edmontonians who showed up for teachers today at the Alberta Legislature.

Community League Days are the heart of Edmonton, and Heritage Point is no different! Last weekend, I was reminded why local leadership matters: safe streets for families, affordable housing options, reliable transit that connects us, and thriving local businesses that keep our neighbourhoods vibrant
