I am saddened to hear about the passing of former Alberta NDP MLA, Alex McEachern.
Not only did Alex represent the residents of Edmonton-Kingsway for two terms, his dedication to the party and advocating for the well-being of all Albertans remained strong his entire life.

The storm passed, but the costs are skyrocketing.
The UCP has done nothing. No plan. No transparency. You deserve a government that takes action to bring costs down.

Alberta immigrant support groups seeing recent uptick in anger, rise of racist narratives | CBC News
Alberta resident Shamaila Akram says she can handle the increase in racial slurs and derogatory comments being thrown at her, but she worries about her newcomer and immigrant clients.
Premier Smith is blaming immigrants for government failures.
The UCP launched "Alberta is Callingβ yet, ignored services like housing, healthcare,& education
Theyβre dividing Albertans by blaming newcomers.
The problem is bad leadership, not newcomers.

Danielle Smithβs UCP government continues to fail Albertans.
From pushing separatism to anti-Canada tax grabs to a measles outbreak worse than the U.S., they continue to cause chaos and ignore the needs of the people they are supposed to serve.

Alberta regulations meant to keep old coal mines from polluting streams and lakes are failing, a new study suggests. Authors of the report found high concentrations of several pollutants in rivers dow...
This report is another example of why Albertans continue to say no to coal mining in our Rocky Mountains.

Alberta landowner files conflict-of-interest complaint against Danielle Smith appointee
An Alberta landowner dealing with an orphan gas well on his property wants an investigation into an oil industry insider and advisor to Premier Danielle Smith.
The Premier's own hand-picked special advisor is at the heart of a conflict of interest complaint after multiple sole-sourced contracts.
Did we mention he also sits on the board of Alberta's Energy Regulator?

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 Alberta Next panels are a waste of public money, and the UCP doesn't want media reporting on them.
They are afraid to talk with Albertans, afraid to be filmed, afraid to let people speak. No wonder more Albertans believe this government is failing.

Alberta has now reported more cases than the ENTIRE United States. This measles outbreak was preventable, but the UCP chose not to prevent it.
Danielle Smith is ignoring health experts and putting our lives at risk to fuel her separatist drama.
