Proud to stand with Maskwacis Cree Tribal Council and @cityofedmonton for the unveiling of the “Change your Colours” anti-gang violence campaign in Edmonton Manning today. This is about connecting our youth with culture, not crime. It’s about supporting our warriors and leaders

40,000+ Palestinians killed this year while Liberals allowed military goods to go to Netanyahu & today Mélanie Joly gave zero details on HOW she will prevent the General Dynamics sale. Empty words? Show the proof. #ArmsEmbargoNow.   thestar.com/politics/feder…

Exciting news from the latest Nanos Research poll! Edmonton Manning is shifting towards light orange, and while this isn’t the first poll to show it, it’s a clear sign of incredible progress. Many voters appreciate the NDP’s move away from the Confidence and Supply Agreement with

Last night, ᓘᕆ ᐃᓪᓚᐅᖅ Lori Idlout❄️ held an emergency debate on the police killings of Indigenous people. Over 11 days - we've witnessed 6 killings after encounters with the police. Indigenous peoples have offered solutions. We can't ignore them. It will only deepen the systemic racism

Danielle Smith and the UCP government's decision demonstrates a disregard for the rights of school workers and workers in general. By stripping them of the right to strike and bargain, the government is taking a heavy-handed, undemocratic approach. Denying workers the ability to

The recent attacks in Lebanon are heartbreaking and deeply concerning. As New Democrats, we stand with the Lebanese community and all those impacted by this violence. Families are terrified, civilians are being harmed, and innocent lives are being lost, including children.

Today, and every day I stand in full solidarity with CUPE Alberta Local 3550 & 474 education support workers rallying for fair wages, respect, and better working conditions. These dedicated workers—our EAs, custodians, administrative staff, and more—are the backbone of our schools.

Standing in unwavering solidarity with Palestine & Lebanon at today’s rally. A ceasefire is essential, and a two-way arms embargo must be enforced to stop fueling this conflict. The people are demanding peace, not war. Canada must take a stand, push for the respect of

Just had the absolute best time meeting Archer and Lana today! These two adorable pups were all ears as I chatted with their amazing mom—and honestly, they seemed pretty bummed they couldn’t vote. I think they’re on to something... maybe it’s time to let dogs have a say too! 🐶🐾

Today, on the National Day for Truth and Reconciliation, we honour the survivors of residential schools & their loved ones, & we remember the children who never came home. Thousands of children were taken from their families, stripped of their culture and dignity. The scars run
