Tonight, my colleague @janisirwin.bsky.social and I joined NDP volunteers in Spruce Grove to knock on doors and talk to voters about the issues that matter most to them.

As usual, I found that there is much more that unites Albertans than divides us. #abpoli #bettertogethersummer

As of today, Alberta has the lowest minimum wage in the country. Alberta also has the highest youth unemployment in Canada.

The argument that raising the minimum wage increases youth unemployment is clearly not based in fact.

It's time to raise Alberta's minimum wage. #abpoli #bettertogether

Yesterday, I chatted with Lloydminster Airport staffers Terry and Dayne about their hope that a new passenger carrier soon steps up to replace WestJet, which ended service to Lloydminster in 2023.

This region deserves regularly scheduled air service.

Last weekend, I stopped by the Aldergrove Community League Day event.

Many thanks to the volunteers who organize these events! They do amazing work, with and for their neighbours, to make our communities better places to live, work and raise a family.

Last weekend, I attended the Daughters' Day event held every year at Edmonton City Hall to celebrate the contributions that women of all ages have made to building our community.

I am always inspired after events like these and this year was no exception.

Today, I met with my constituent Mike, a disability advocate. He shared some thoughts with me about the UCP's planned changes to AISH that I would like to share with you.

After knocking on doors in Edmonton-McClung, I joined several @albertandp.ca colleagues at our Better Together Town Hall in Sherwood Park. More great conversations and further confirmation that Albertans are united on the things that matter, including health care, education & a united Canada #abpoli

Thanks to my good friend Mike for joining me on the doors last night in Edmonton-McClung.

I learn so much from these conversations with my constituents
We have more in common with one another than we sometimes think. Don't let the UCP tell you otherwise.

As part of the @albertandp.ca's ongoing conversations with Albertans, I attended the Rural Development Network's AGM today. Participants shared insights on important rural issues like housing, rural economic development & bus transportation.

Thanks for the conversation! #abpoli #ruralalberta

Last night's Better Together Town Hall in Spruce Grove was an incredible success! People shared their hopes & fears about public health & education, community safety, the cost of living & the future of rural Alberta.

Thanks for a great evening, Spruce Grove!

See you in a few hours, Spruce Grove!

My @albertandp.ca colleagues @pancholirakhi.bsky.social, @jodiabndp.bsky.social and I are looking forward to hearing about the issues that matter most to you and how Albertans and Canadians are Better Together.

My pal Laura joined me again tonight for conversations with some of my constituents. No matter the neighbourhood, the same issues keep coming up: the rising cost of car insurance, overcrowded classrooms, growing wait times for health care, & UCP attacks on Albertans with disabilities. #abpoli

Pleased to join families at the Edmonton and District Labour Council annual Labour Day BBQ. We must continue to work in solidarity for fair wages, safer workplaces, basic labour standards including holiday and sick pay & the right to bargain for a better deal at work. #bettertogether❤️ #labourday

This Labour Day, I salute my late father, Walter Dach, a career Union Carpenter, & all workers. Workers' rights, including the right to join a union and to strike, were hard-won rights &must be protected. Stand together. Fight to preserve these precious democratic pillars. #bettertogether #labourday

Thanks to my great volunteers with Team McClung for braving the heat to go knocking on doors with me today in Callingwood.
I've met a lot of people getting ready for the return to school who are worried about the UCP government's ongoing attacks on public education. #abpoli #backtoschool

On September 4th, our Leader @naheednenshi.bsky.social and @amandachapman.bsky.social @amandachapmanndp will be holding a virtual town hall on the future of our public education system. Join us on YouTube Live at 7 PM.
August 29, 2025 at 5:08 PM
@naheednenshi.bsky.social &I are calling on the UCP to abandon its attempt to steal the $200 a month federal benefit from AISH recipients, drop its plan to replace AISH with a "work for your supports" program, re-index AISH payments to inflation & support accessibility legislation. #abpoli

On August 24, 1991, Ukraine declared its independence from the former Soviet Union.

Today, Albertans of Ukrainian descent gathered at the legislature to mark this occasion and pray for better times for their troubled homeland.

Slava Ukraini! Happy Independence Day!

Every year, young people across the city run lemonade stands to raise money for #stollerykids.

This morning, I met dozens of Junior Lemon Squeezers and their parents in my constituency to congratulate them on their important work.

So proud to celebrate their community spirit! #abpoli
