Danielle Smith is tearing this province apart to save her own political skin. Instead of standing up for Alberta and a stronger Canada, she’s appeasing separatists and giving legitimacy to groups tied to illegal data breaches, foreign interference concerns and attacks on Indigenous treaty rights.

Great to meet with CUPW members today. Postal workers keep our communities connected, especially seniors, rural communities & people who rely on public services delivered to their door Postal service matters. It’s a public good that belongs to all Canadians and New Democrats will defend it. 💌✊

The dangerous separatist agenda just hit a wall in court because First Nations fought back. Thank you to Indigenous leaders & communities for defending Treaty rights and the Constitution. You cannot threaten to break up Canada while ignoring Treaty. The UCP need to adhere to the court decision.

Great to be at the CLC convention in Winnipeg. So much solidarity in the room. Proud to stand with friends, workers, and labour leaders from across Canada. The NDP is the party built by labour, for labour and we will always stand with workers. ✊🧡

It’s been a week since 3 million Albertans had their personal information exposed by a separatist group. This wasn’t an accident. It was a reckless breach & a threat to our democracy. People need to be charged & the UCP must start protecting Albertans. My interview:

Doug Ford is seizing control of Billy Bishop Airport and Mark Carney won’t stop him. He wants to privatize Canadian airports. The NDP will always work to keep public infrastructure serving people, not private investors.

This government made a lot of promises to Canadians. Yesterday, we learned that many of those were empty promises. The spring economic statement included billions for big business and almost nothing for Canadians struggling to pay the bills.

You can tell a lot about a government by their appointments or lack thereof. Why does the Canadian Labour Congress not have a seat at the CUSMA table? Will this government listen to workers and include them in the CUSMA negotiations?

Students from Gaza have been waiting over two years to continue their studies at Canadian universities. What the Minister won't tell you - Canada could admit these students today. This is Canada's loss. This is Canada's shame!

Canadians are asking for a government that works, a government that delivers benefits on time, and a government that sees them, hears them, and helps them when they need it the most. Canadians deserve that from their government. Reverse the Carney Cuts.

For decades, government has chipped away at the public service. Now you wait on hold for hours hoping to speak to someone who can help only to get disconnected. Instead of fixing this problem, this government is making it worse. 1/x

We need electoral reform. When the current system distorts results, it shuts people out. It reduces accountability, discourages working together to help Canadians, and rewards division. Proportional representation would fix all that.
