Like @Arturmaks I woke up feeling even better than usual. Speaker Fergus and Premier Elect Kinew will make great contributions. Very good news for Manitoba and Canada.
Days like today make me proud to be Canadian. Greg Fergus is elected Canada’s first Black Speaker of the House of Commons. @WabKinew is elected Canada’s first First Nations provincial Premier in Manitoba. Representation matters. #cdnpol

Danielle Smith’s plans to take over 50 percent of the CPP funds to start her Alberta Pension Plan and her plan to use her Sovereignty Act to avoid following 2035 net zero targets are both examples of fanciful thinking. The federal government and every other province in the CPP would never allow Smith to get her claws on CPP funds that belong to Canadians across the country. And Smith’s Sovereignty Act cannot produce a secret legislative shortcut or constitutional magic wand to escape 2035 net zero targets. In the end “All this fanciful fantasizing makes the government look silly. It’s damaging their credibility, which in turn undermines the very causes they’re championing.”edmontonjournal.com/opinion/…

Re Lab Services Premier, it is well passed the time to be chatting with Dynalife. Be proactive. Rehire Precision. These were AHS Employees that were efficient. Today is June 12. The earliest a person can get a lab appointment in Calgary is July 15. Not acceptable.

Premier, bring back Precision Labs in the Calgary AHS Zone. It was efficient and worked. And while you are at it, cancel the private contracts in AHS Retail Foods and hire back those Employees that faced layoff. Admit the mistake. Fix it and drive on.

Why is it that a private for profit company like Dynalife (lab services) has access to an individuals health records through Connect Care but a Paramedic who is an Employee of Alberta Health Services does not have access to Connect Care. This is wrong.

Maybe privatized health care isn't a great solution after all 🤔 edmontonjournal.com/news/pol… #ableg #abpoli

Diner, the sequel. At Boogies for a shake and to encourage lunchers to vote.

What’s election day without stopping at a diner? Pickerel sandwich at Sammie’s hits the spot.

A war on doctors. Mass layoffs of healthcare workers. Emergency wait times out of control. Women in Lethbridge told to travel to Calgary to give birth. Ambulances that never come. Obstetric services closed in communities across Alberta. For the sake of our healthcare, #voteNDP.

I pledged to vote for Rachel Notley and the NDP because I want a better future for Alberta. Are you voting NDP this election too? Take the pledge today! albertandp.ca/gotv #abvotes #abelxn23

#UCP privatized our hospital cafeteria. No food for those on weekend call. A disaster, just like the lab. How are we supposed to recruit & retain #healthcare staff when we can’t even feed them as they work 24/7? #abhealth #abpoli #ableg #abelxn23

I am touched and honoured to have the endorsement of Dr. David Swann. He has served this community for so long with integrity and passion, especially in the critical area of mental health. David, we will work every day to earn this endorsement. Thank you so much.
I am now calling on all liberal democratic Albertans: vote for Rachel Notley and the NDP, who represent the public interest. David Swann MD (former ALP MLA and Leader) Pete Helfrich, ACP (former ALP president) #abpoli #ableg #CBC #CTV

Bribing voters in Calgary with our Provincial tax dollars is nothing more than vote buying. Shame on Danielle Smith and the UCP.
