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!

@peggybevclare.bsky.social and I had a wonderful afternoon celebrating Ireecha with Edmonton's Oromo community! Thank you to Oromian Community Association of Northern Alberta for the warm welcome and delicious food!

The UCP government is leaving Albertans with more questions than answers with this latest move to include citizenship markers on provincial IDs.

Yesterday, I attended a reception at the 2025 Alberta Industrial Heartland Association Conference! It was a wonderful opportunity to speak with business leaders and other policy makers on the future of the industry in this critical region of our province. Let's build a better future together!

I had the great pleasure of presenting a scroll to the Army Navy Air Force Veterans (ANAVETS) Sir Winston Churchill Unit #3! In the armed forces, they served Canada admirably. Now, as veterans, they continue to contribute in numerous meaningful ways to the community. Thank you for all that you do!

Today I toured the wonderful Rosy Farms where they grow tasty haskap berries! I learned about the interesting research being done at the farm and about the great potential this little fruit holds. A huge thank you to Andrew and Adelle for hosting me! www.rosyfarms.com

Albertans experience budget whiplash as today, the UCP Government announced a $6.5 Billion deficit. This is simply fiscal incompetence after the previous budget was defined by cuts, chaos & corruption. See my full statement: www.albertandpcaucus.ca/news/post/uc... #abpoli #yyc #economy #jobs

I'll be co-hosting the Better Together Town Hall in Edmonton tomorrow! When: Thursday August 28th @ 6:30 pm Where: Polish Hall, 10960 104 Street NW Register: albertandpcaucus.ca/events/event... Due to so much interest, we've had to move our location from Kingsway Legion to the Polish Hall

📚✏️ Alberta’s teachers always have our kids’ backs — it’s time we have theirs. The UCP has underfunded classrooms for too long. Our kids can’t afford another year of cuts. @sweetmla.bsky.social #ABEducation #ABLabour #ABLeg #ABPoli

Today, many of our neighbours are setting up lemonade stands in support of the Stollery Children’s Hospital. Every cup sold helps provide world-class care for kids right here in Edmonton. 💛 🍋 Visit a stand near you: lemonadeyeg.ca

🗣 Edmonton, let’s talk about building a better Alberta together! 🗣 Join me on Wednesday, August 28 for our Better Together Town Hall in Edmonton. I’ll be joined by Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi and MLA Rakhi Pancholi. Your voice matters and together we can make Alberta stronger.

Albertans deserve transparency, not secrecy. It’s time to reverse this policy, release all receipts, and restore proper ethics and freedom of information rules. Albertans deserves better!

China has announced a 75.8% tariff on Canadian canola. Over the past year, I have contacted both the federal and provincial Ministers of Agriculture on this issue. Our farmers cannot be treated as pawns in a trade war. Both governments need to step up for our agricultural industry.

Join us! Local dinner, great company, and inspiring talks from MLA Heather Sweet & NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi. 📅 Sept 13 | 🕔 5–8:30pm | 📍 Okotoks (location sent with tickets) 🎟https://www.albertandp.ca/better-is-possible-highwood-ndp-farm-fundraiser-with-heather-sweet-naheed-nenshi

🌾 Wayback Wednesday 🌾 Throwing it back to 2022 at Edmonton Urban Farms! While they’re closed until 2026, you can still explore amazing farms during Alberta Open Farm Days this year. Plan your visit: albertaopenfarmdays.ca #WaybackWednesday #ABFarmDays

Summer’s in full swing, and here’s a look at what I’ve been up to! I’ve had great conversations in Edmonton-Manning, connected with Alberta’s agriculture partners, and joined so many incredible community events. If you spot me while I’m out knocking on doors, come say hi!

17,000 jobs were lost in one month which is the worst in Canada. Youth unemployment has doubled and one in four young men cannot find work. Danielle Smith’s government is ignoring Albertans struggling to get by. We need real leadership that fights for every job.

I had a wonderful evening at the Edmonton Folk Music Festival with my colleagues. Great music, amazing vibe, and a view that can’t be beat. If you’re thinking of going, grab a chair and some friends — you won’t regret it! #EdmontonFolkFest

The UCP’s Alberta Next Panel doesn’t make anyone safer it just distracts from their failures on affordability, health care, and housing. Alberta is stronger when we stand together.

I’m joining Naheed Nenshi and Alberta’s NDP at town halls across the province to hear from Albertans who believe we’re stronger together—not divided. Let’s stand up for a united Canada and a better Alberta. Come share your voice. Learn more at: BetterTogetherSummer.ca

Folk Fest is back! It's one of my favourite times of the year! I've had so much fun at the festival over the years. For #ThrowbackThursday, I went down memory lane and found some photos of my time there. I can't wait to attend again this season and I hope to see you all there!

Farmers are struggling and the UCP is choosing not to act. Rising feed and water costs mean higher food prices for everyone. Alberta’s farmers deserve better. Listen to my full interview on River Country FM: www.rivercountry.fm/2025/07/22/n...

It's Food Day in Canada! Today, we celebrate the wonderful Albertans who work hard to provide food for our province and beyond. Support their work today by buying local, visiting a farmer's market or heading out to a local farm to see where the magic happens.

Today is Emancipation Day in Canada. It’s a day to reflect, to learn, and to acknowledge that the legacy of slavery still shapes our systems today. Let’s commit to the ongoing work of equity, justice, and true liberation for all.

The Premier and Justice Minister are trying to twist an independent process to serve their own agenda and appease separatists in their base. Albertans deserve a government with integrity. Not one that bends the rules to protect itself. Better is possible!

The UCP continues to ignore the concerns of everyday Albertans. How much more of our money will go toward political optics instead of real solutions? Albertans are watching and they deserve better! Better is possible.

As Albertans struggle to make ends meet, the UCP keeps wasting public dollars on their own mess. This money should have gone to health care, schools, and making life more affordable, not UCP chaos.

Once again, the UCP is showing just how cruel they can be. Instead of supporting Albertans who rely on AISH, they're creating fear and confusion with rushed deadlines and poor communication. This isn't responsible governance, it's mean-spirited and unnecessary. Albertans deserve better!

A big thank you to Don’ya’s Ukraine Kitchen for welcoming me into your space and inviting me to help make varenykys. It was a joy to meet the incredible people behind the scenes and to see the care and tradition that goes into every bite. What a special experience!

One leader shows up with hope and a plan to move Alberta forward, while the other demands apologies from communities recovering from disaster. Albertans deserve leadership that listens, unites, and fights for real solutions. Not blame. Not division. Better is possible! #bettertogether

I had a wonderful time at the McLeod Community League's KDay Pancake Breakfast! 🥞 It was a fantastic way to bring the community together over good food and even better conversations. A huge thanks to the community league and all the amazing volunteers who made this event happen!

Due to the weather the BBQ is cancelled for today.

Summer means U-Pick season in Alberta! 🍎 This year, 8 amazing local farms have come together to make a "Harvest Hop Passport" program. Visit participating farms to collect stamps and get a shot to win great prizes! Check out this link to learn more: www.baroafarms.com/harvest-hop
