On #NIPD2023, I celebrate the contributions of First Nations, Inuit and Metis peoples across Canada. I am humbled by the knowledge and learning we have been given, and the opportunity to grow our relationships, built on trust, respect and reciprocity. calgaryunitedway.org/impact/indigen…

Cultural diversity is a way communities are strengthened-by living with different cultures, races, religions & viewpoints, our own perspectives grow. Healthy communities are places that respect differences-let’s celebrate the richness of Calgary’s cultures! #MulticulturalismDay

It’s #SelfCareDay! While it’s easy to think self-care is just massages or sunny walks, it’s actually a lifelong habit to empower people to look after their own health & do what best supports them. Check out these tips from @DistressCentreYYC distresscentre.com/2020/01/28/sel…

On #InternationalYouthDay, I challenge you to speak to a young person in your life and hear the wisdom they already hold. Young people know what they want for their future and it’s up to all of us to listen closely. #YouthLead

On #WorldSeniorDay, consider reaching out to an older person to check how they’re doing. Loneliness & isolation can creep in–it’s up to all of us to take care of people across the age spectrum in our lives, from younger to older, so our whole community can thrive. #BeUnited

Excited to kick off the AltaLink campaign with CEO Gary Hart and the campaign team this morning. We have been partnering to improve lives together with agency partners for over 26 years. #GiveFromTheHeart

I am devastated by the escalating conflict and humanitarian crisis in the Middle East – for our brothers and sisters overseas, and our own community members whose well-being and mental health is affected. I stand in solidarity against hate, violence and racism in all its forms.
