It was a true honour for our caucus to meet with the Chiefs of the Blackfoot Confederacy. Alberta's New Democrats unequivocally reject separatism, respect treaty rights, and stand with Indigenous peoples. Always.

The UCP managed to create a crisis in healthcare & education due to poor planning & decision-making. Now they’ve added a $9.4 billion deficit to the budget, doubling Alberta’s provincial debt & pushing it over $100 billion. #abpoli #ableg #alberta #economy #finance

The UCP squandered Alberta’s near-record resource wealth and still produced a $9.4 -billion deficit—a failure of basic financial management. Somehow, under some of strongest economic conditions in a generation, life is going to cost you more. youtube.com/shorts/CRq9V...

Danielle Smith is doubling Alberta's debt with nothing to show for it.

The UCP government has spent so much money to deliver so little for Albertans. After seven years under the UCP, life is demonstrably harder for Albertans, and this budget does not help in any way. Read my full statement here: www.albertandpcaucus.ca/news/post/uc...

Hey Edmonton Teachers, take a break and grab a bite on us! Looking forward to seeing you at the Citadel Theatre this Friday ▶️ www.albertandpcaucus.ca/events/event...

Today in the Legislature, I spoke about the crisis in our ERs and the lives being lost, including Prashant Sreekumar. Doctors have been calling for a state of emergency, yet the UCP refused our emergency debate, saying there was “other House business.” People are dying. This must be the priority.

All Albertans know that our healthcare system is in crisis. The Premier should prioritize addressing the backlogs in emergency rooms. Instead, she continues to make shockingly expensive mistakes. #abpoli #ableg

It's been over one month since the UCP government promised to hire triage doctors, who were supposed to be in place on February 1st, but nothing has been done. They've been more focused on hiring fancy consultants and coming up with new buzz words, while dismantling public health care. #abhealth

Even though the health care system is in crisis, the UCP shut down the Legislature early because they didn't want to talk about people dying in Alberta's emergency rooms. We need solutions, not a government that shuts down debate.

Today the UCP said they didn't want to debate the health care crisis in our emergency departments. What did they do instead? Adjourned the legislature early.

Once upon a time, Danielle Smith wanted to double Alberta's population. youtube.com/shorts/VbNdi...

WATCH LIVE as Rakhi Pancholi, Deputy Leader of Alberta's New Democrats, responds to the Premier's address, calling on Smith to end these desperate distractions and call the election. youtube.com/live/FY6y5v-...

After six years in power, a fourth budget, and a third multi-billion-dollar deficit, Danielle Smith will blame everyone but herself. Albertans deserve a Premier who takes responsibility, not one who tells us to make hard choices while refusing to own up to her own mistakes. youtu.be/iuA1pxu72ZQ

The Year of the Horse represents strength, success, and new beginnings, and may yours be filled with all it promises. On behalf of Alberta's New Democrats, @nathanip.bsky.social and I wish you a happy Lunar New Year! youtube.com/shorts/Akyro...

This is a national tragedy and I am absolutely heartbroken. I join all Canadians in standing with the people of Tumbler Ridge. I send my condolences to the families and friends of those killed in this horrific event, and I am praying for a quick recovery for those injured. (1/2)

It was great to wrap up last week meeting with Caelen, a MacEwan University social work student on practicum in my colleague MLA Lorne Dach’s office. I first met her when I visited her Gr. 6 class. We had a thoughtful conversation about the issues impacting our community.

Danielle Smith’s threat to withhold funding for judicial appointments jeopardizes access to justice for Albertans. Politicizing our courts undermines fairness and delays the legal process. Full stop.

Let's go, Team Canada! 🇨🇦 youtube.com/shorts/QTeeN...

"Experts say Bill 11, the Health Statutes Amendments Act, represents the foundations for the first two-tier health-care system in Canada... (1/2)

How many teachers, EAs, doctors, nurses, social workers, etc, etc, etc ... could the government have hired for $30 million dollars? thetyee.ca/News/2026/02...

Today is Imamat Day, the day that Ismaili Muslims (like me!) mark the anniversary of His Highness Prince Rahim Aga Khan becoming the Imam. Over the past year, His Highness has continued his work to uplift and improve the quality of life of millions around the world. /1

Albertans are proud Canadians. Separatism doesn’t reduce cost of living. Separatism doesn’t build hospital beds. Separatism doesn’t hire teachers. Separatism scares away investment, costs us jobs & puts us in a weak position. Alberta New Democrats are firmly on Team Canada.

Happy Lunar New Year and Year of the Horse! Chinese Calgarians have spent over 100 years building Calgary’s Chinatown into the vibrant community it is today. Over the next few weeks, I hope you’ll visit Chinatown and take part in these fantastic celebrations!🧧 youtube.com/shorts/O5QY2...

Albertans deserve to know that when they go to the hospital for urgent care, they can get it without delay. That's why we're calling on the UCP to: ➡ Declare a state of emergency for Alberta’s emergency rooms. ➡ Reinstate a central command for coordination and decision-making. (1/2)

Alberta’s New Democrats are demanding that Premier Smith address Albertans directly and acknowledge the ongoing crisis of our health care system. www.albertandpcaucus.ca/news/post/al...

We’re bringing Albertans together to have an honest discussion about two of the most urgent issues facing us today: The growing threat of separatism and the worsening health care crisis. Grab a seat, text a friend, and tune in at 7 PM on Tues, Feb 3. www.albertandpcaucus.ca/events/under...

We're proud Albertans. We're proud Canadians. If they love this province and this country like we do, signing this pledge is the easiest thing an MLA can do. What are the UCP waiting for? youtube.com/shorts/1rp-x...

@naheednenshi.bsky.social asked every Alberta MLA to sign a straightforward pledge declaring they are proud Albertans, proud Canadians, and that they oppose separatism. Are UCP MLAs proud Albertans and proud Canadians? Or are they separatists? Their silence speaks volumes.

We've had enough of Danielle Smith's word salad. It's time for the Premier to clearly and unequivocally denounce separatism. Albertans want to know EXACTLY where she stands. youtube.com/shorts/l4uu1...

“I, Sarah Hoffman, MLA for Edmonton-Glenora, affirm that I am a proud Albertan and a proud Canadian. I am opposed to separatism and I will make my position known and clear to my constituents.” I am hoping all my MLA colleagues will do the same.

"NDP health critic Sarah Hoffman said it's not a new issue, and she raised the alarm about mice at the facility last summer, including with health inspectors. But she said on a recent visit with a man living in the facility, she saw continued evidence, including mice droppings, in his room." #apoli

"Frontline doctors have been clear: in a crisis, they need to know who is in charge. The minister himself said no single person is in charge — and that’s exactly the problem." Watch as @shoffmanab.bsky.social reacts to the UCP's plan (or lack thereof): youtu.be/P7Q7o_XCpds

🚨 Overcrowded 🚨 Unsafe 🚨 Stretched beyond capacity Doctors and patients are sounding the alarm that our hospitals and ERs are in crisis, but the UCP government remains silent. Albertans should be able to access quality health care when they need it, where they need it. #abhealth #ableg #abpoli

For immediate release January 8, 2026 Sarah Hoffman, Alberta’s New Democrat Shadow Minister for Hospital and Surgical Health Facilities; and Sharif Haji, Shadow Minister for Primary and Preventative Health Services, issued the following joint statement:

"We're operating in disaster mode everyday. We're at this point where the only way that we can safely take care of new patients coming in is we have to activate an emergency plan." -Dr. Paul Parks from the @albertadoctors.bsky.social

Thank you to all the hardworking public service employees who make the Legislature grounds a truly magical place during this time of year! youtube.com/shorts/A-khd...

Big thanks to the workers clearing sidewalks, roads, and bike lanes after yesterday’s snowfall! Your hard work in the cold keeps our city moving safely and we appreciate what you do. If you see someone out there today, give them a wave or a thank you! Stay warm and watch for icy spots.

Chag Sameach! 🕎 Wishing Alberta’s Jewish community peace and joy this Hanukkah. May the light of the menorah remind us of resilience, hope, and the strength of community.

The fall legislative session has ended with the UCP bringing closure to end debate on their harmful legislative agenda. The whole point of parliamentary democracy is to make sure that we are all heard and this government has no interest in hearing the voices of anyone who dissents with them.

Name a “wilder time” for Albertans... We'll go first 🔽

The UCP is pushing through a coal mining project that no one wants. We'd like to know: who is this project serving? Because it sure isn't serving Albertans.

Measles cases in Alberta hit a high of nearly 2,500 cases, the highest in Canada. We have learned that the minister was urged to update reporting standards months ago. That advice was ignored. I asked the Minister why. . . . #Alberta #MeaslesOutbreak #PublicHealth #VaccinationAwareness #ableg

New details continue to emerge as to the extent of UCP corruption. The carefully constrained Wyant Report left more questions than answers. Albertans need & deserve a full public inquiry into CorruptCare. #abpoli #ableg #CorruptCare #CallAPublicInquiry

Almost a million Albertans don't have access to a family doctor. Thankfully, @shoffmanab.bsky.social & Alberta's New Democrats have a plan to fix that. While the UCP is focused on introducing American-style, two-tier healthcare, we're focused on the priorities that matter to you.

The UCP is putting their ideology ahead of good health care. American-style two-tiered health care will result in more expensive care and longer wait times for Albertans. #abhealth #ableg #abpoli

“The people that are forced to stay in the public system, those people who need the supports of a hospital, those people who can’t afford to pay that – they’re going to wait longer.” -Dr. Braden Manns, a physician at the University of Calgary #abhealth #abpoli #ableg
