Albertans are worse off than they were in 2019. It's time for a government that cares about you.
Danielle Smith is going to draw her own election maps and boundary commission member Greg Clark has concerns about it. Don't let her steal your vote and rig our elections.

This UCP government hasn’t been listening to Albertans who stand against separatism and believe Alberta’s future is firmly within Canada. Step up and get involved - sign up for our day of action this Saturday:

Spotted in Edmonton. The independent Electoral Boundaries Commission consulted thousands of Albertans and published a fair map. Danielle Smith threw it in the trash and plans to rig the next election. Don't let her get away with it.

When the UCP government creates chaos, Albertans are the ones left paying for it. It’s time to show Albertans, and the rest of the country, what our energy sector can look like under strong, steady, competent leadership. It’s time to build Alberta’s energy future. ⬇️

Deeply saddened by the tragic plane crash at LaGuardia Airport this morning involving a flight from Montreal. My heart is with the families of the two Canadian pilots we lost, and I’m wishing strength and healing to everyone affected.

Great visit to Native Tongues Taqueria in Britannia and good to see manager Aaron. Supporting local means supporting Canadian businesses and strong communities.

Your provincial property tax is going up 20% to pay for $16,000 bottles of Turkish Tylenol. That's not right.

Under Danielle Smith, Alberta’s health-care system is in crisis. American-style, two-tier care will only make ERs and hospitals worse - and leave you paying for care. Albertans deserve better. You deserve an affordable life and a public system that puts patients first.

Premier Smith as had a year: Trips to Trump. A Corrupt Care scandal. And using the notwithstanding clause 4 times—including against teachers and vulnerable youth. Separatism. An affordability crisis. No minimum wage increase. Shame. Albertans are proud Canadians. We’re stronger together.

Bill 9 is the UCP’s latest attempt to override your rights using the notwithstanding clause. That’s not democracy — it’s authoritarian power. The Charter and the Alberta Bill of Rights exist to protect us, not to be ignored by government. Read more:

Once again, Premier Smith is backtracking on her promise that no Albertan would pay out of pocket to see a family doctor. Instead, we’re seeing American-style healthcare creep into Alberta, leaving people behind while costs go up.

For the second time, the UCP has voted down Bill 201 — a bill that would have stopped restaurant owners from taking the tips their employees earned. Workers deserve to keep what’s theirs. Premier Smith, protect workers’ tips, not your pals. Contact your MLA today. This is not okay.

Albertans are paying more for less. Smith allowed uncontrolled increases in auto insurance premiums, which will go up anaother 15% or more in the next two years. Time for a public model like Saskatchewan’s.

Separatism puts Alberta’s capital and investment returns at real risk. At the Heritage Trust Fund meeting I asked the fund manager if they had evaluated the impact of separatism, similar to an analysis they did on Brexit. The answer? No. Why not?

Standing with our teachers today and every day. Alberta is Canada’s richest province - there’s no excuse for having the lowest student funding. Our classrooms deserve investment, not neglect. End this strike now, Danielle Smith.

Underfunding and lack of support mean it’s not just students with complex needs being left behind - it’s all kids. One person can only do so much. No one should face these conditions, especially teachers. Premier Smith, end the strike. Give our kids the education they deserve.

Premier Smith, you boast about supporting public education, yet it’s teachers and education staff who make it work despite your government’s defunding. They deserve respect and fair treatment - they’re shaping the citizens of tomorrow, and our children deserve that today. End the strike now.

I’m incredibly grateful to the Calgary-area pharmacists who gave up their evening to share the challenges they are facing in serving Albertans’ health care needs. Pharmacists are important partners in health care and deserve respect from Danielle Smith’s government.
