Better Together Engaging Albertans to build an economy for the future.

Nenshi & the Alberta NDP Caucus are excited to meet with and hear from Albertans across this province, all summer long.

We’ll share ways for Albertans to rally their fellow Canadians to stand up for this country, not tear Canada apart at the seams.

Alberta’s Perverse New Barriers to COVID Vaccines | The Tyee The virus hits the old and poor hardest. The province is erecting hurdles for granting them protection.

“Alberta already made headlines for leading every other jurisdiction in North America in terms of measles.

The deliberate undermining of the province’s COVID immunization program will have predictable consequences for hundreds of thousands of Albertans.”

Housing, healthcare, education, cost of living, has all gone unaddressed by the UCP government.

Instead they’re pushing divisive separatism to try and bolster their own political support, and Albertans are suffering the consequences.

NDP says consultations show Albertans not in favour of separating NDP Deputy Leader, Rakhi Pancholi, speaks with Alberta Primetime host Michael Higgins about changes the provincial government is calling on Elections Alberta to make to the referendum process.

Once again the UCP are pushing an agenda that Albertans don’t want.

Albertans want a resilient economy, they want to address cost of living, they care about public health care and public education - but the UCP is pushing separatism for their own reasons.

🔵 Pushing their separatist agenda;
🔵 Anti-Canadian tax grabs;
🔵 Measles outbreak worse than the entire U.S.

This UCP government is a disaster.

Albertans deserve better.

Opinion: Albertans will fight to keep their Canada Pension Plan If Alberta leaves the CPP, there’s no do-over.

“a classic case of manufacturing consent: Using selective data, public money, and a rigged consultation process to build support for an unpopular idea. Rather than listen to Albertans, the gov’t has tried to shape public opinion to fit its agenda.”

The UCP’s tactics to divide Albertans are shameful.

The Albertans I talk to believe that we are #BetterTogether

Other jurisdictions have denied or revoked permits for this event in public spaces. The UCP should follow suit and stand with the principles of democratic inclusion!

AHS limits visitors at cancer facilities in Alberta to help control measles spread | Globalnews.ca AHS has also issued a growing number of public alerts in recent weeks for possible measles exposures at health-care facilities in the province.

Alberta’s measles outbreak is causing harm across the province. Why won’t the UCP step up?

Rights of Alberta seniors are being neglected by the UCP gov’t now more than ever. Drug & health benefits rolled back, skyrocketed cost of living having a disproportionate impact.

This after the UCP did away with the office of the seniors’ advocate and amalgamate it into health.

Alberta government slammed for incompetence as pays out $143M in coal policy reversal EDMONTON - Alberta is paying out more than $140 million to end one of five lawsuits launched against it over its coal mining policies.

"Alberta government slammed for incompetence as pays out $143M in coal policy reversal" 🤔

A landowner in rural AB (Two Hills to be specific) has filed an investigation request with AB’s Ethics Commissioner about the UCP's RStar scheme and David Yager's conflict of interest.

I’ve asked about this many times… This was the premier's response👇 #ableg

The UCP are not providing Alberta agriculture producers with the support they need as crops and livestock suffer under recent drought conditions.

Instead of living up to its responsibility, the UCP is ignoring the problem and using their fight with Ottawa to deflect.

Shameful.

The UCP’s instability and flip-flopping is costing Albertans… We need a competent government!

Let’s all do what we can to support Jasper this summer, as they continue to rebuild from the devastating wildfires one year ago.

Take a trip to Jasper, get the Canada Strong pass, and support local businesses and residents!

This should not be happening in Alberta, or anywhere. Albertans deserve better.

Managing natural disasters shouldn’t be political. You let the experts lead. You
focus on keeping people & property safe.

Alberta’s NDP will work with all orders of government to protect communities and make sure Albertans get the urgent support they need when they need it most.

🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

The UCP are focused on their sham town halls while failing to support Alberta industries. Smith’s priorities are totally out of touch!

Albertans are fed up with the UCP’s biased political agenda!

EDITORIAL: Cameras not welcome at Okotoks town hall Media members covering town hall with Premier Danielle Smith told to check cameras and audio recorders at the door.

The UCP are trying to stop the media from reporting on their wasteful Alberta Next panels.

Albertans deserve a better government.

The best way to understand what Albertans need is to talk to them. At their doors. In town halls. In community.

This summer, we’re doing just that:
Listening, learning, and standing up for what matters.

Had a fantastic time at the Hindu Society Pancake Breakfast this weekend. The energy, food, and thoughtful conversations made for a memorable morning. Always great to be out connecting with community and celebrating what brings us together!

The UCP are ignoring health experts and putting Albertans’ lives at risk to fuel their separatist chaos.

This measles outbreak was preventable.

Artwalk Pancake Breakfast on Saturday!
 
Artwalk is Alberta’s oldest and largest non-juried visual arts festival. It’s an exciting showcase of Alberta’s talented artists right in the heart of Edmonton.

The MLAs were happy to be part of it by offering pancakes and fun!

At the Gregorian Manna Fest recently, put on by the Gregorian Orthodox Church in Edmonton Riverview.

Ushers in beautiful royal blue dresses taught me about the festival and made me feel welcome.

Green-filtered photo of health care workers speeding down a hospital hallway with a stretcher. Overlaid text reads: "A Summer of Chaos, Closures & Measles: Alberta Government is Missing in Action on Health Care. Read FOM's response: friendsofmedicare.org/news"

AB now has more measles cases per capita than anywhere in North America. Dozens of ERs are closed due to short staffing. Restructuring & privatization is creating chaos for workers & patients... So where's the urgent response from the minister & CMOH?

Under the UCP Albertans aren’t receiving the public healthcare they deserve.

Great people, great breakfasts.

Making the most of stampede!! 🤠
