Alberta’s affordability crisis is squeezing nonprofits. The historic Old Y in Calgary’s Beltline now sits empty after 65 orgs were forced out. Rising rents threaten essential services. We need real solutions to keep communities safe and strong. #SupportNonprofits #YYC

Calgary needs the Old Y.
For over 115 years, this historic Beltline landmark has been a hub for grassroots organizations and community care. Today, it sits empty, but its future isn’t written yet.
Join Save the Old Y to call on the City to keep this space alive.

Legislating teachers back to work doesn't solve any fundamental problems, it only erodes and degrades the already overcrowded and underfunded school system.
Alberta teachers dismayed by proposed back-to-work order | CBC News
Premier Danielle Smith announced Thursday that her government would, absent a negotiated deal at the bargaining table, pass back-to-work legislation Monday to end the strike that began Oct. 6.

Nearly 1 in 3 Calgarians can’t afford enough food. Danielle Smith’s UCP has let food insecurity spiral out of control.
No one should have to choose between rent and dinner. Albertans deserve better.

Other jurisdictions have revoked permits for Sean Feucht's events on public property, why does the UCP choose to platform him at the Legislature?

Smith says her government doesn’t want to waste money on unused COVID vaccines. Let that sink in. They wasted $80M on Turkish Tylenol that sits in a warehouse to this day. Handed out bloated AHS contracts to friends. They refuse to promote public health. They are the worst.

So quick and easy to go to the pharmacist for COVID and flue shots. The UCP are anti-science and against making health care convenient and affordable. They are the worst.
#Calgary pharmacists say they were blindsided by the province’s decision to start charging most people an estimated $110 per shot for COVID-19 vaccines this fall.

The UCP government wasted hundreds of millions of dollars on Turkish Tylenol, bloated surgical contracts and unusable PPE. They’re not interested in saving money; they’re only interested in conspiracy theories attacking the science of public health.

I wish it worked like that - in rare cases it does but not here and not now. Sorry. (Our NDP channels are always open though)

What are you and the rest of the NDP doing about getting those 3 or 4 loyal Canadians that must exist in the UCP caucus to vote non-confidence with you?
