This is one of those moments that asks something of all of us.
If we care about where Alberta — and Canada — are headed, this is the time to show up.
Join me, @pancholirakhi.bsky.social, and my @albertandp.ca colleagues this Saturday for a Day of Action in #yegsw.
For Alberta. For Canada. 🇨🇦

In one scenario, half of Sherwood Park would be thrown in with Tofield, which is 50 kms away in a different county.
I asked the MLA for Strathcona-Sherwood Park why he isn’t speaking up for his constituents. /2

The UCP is using unfair tactics to win the next election. Today, they will introduce Government Motion 37, which will effectively allow UCP MLAs to draw electoral maps for the next election.
UCP-drawn maps would disenfranchise both rural and urban voters. /1
The UCP is letting Kevin O’Leary’s AI Data Center skip its standard environmental impact assessment— despite being built in a municipality facing emergency drought conditions.
Why does the Premier have one set of rules for Albertans and another set of rules for her friends? #abpoli #ableg #abtech
The UCP is rigging the boundary-drawing process to steal the next election. We are sounding the alarm.
Alberta's New Democrats are calling on all Albertans, all political leaders, and all Canadians who believe in democracy to speak up now. #abpoli #ableg
Today, Danielle Smith and the UCP caucus unveiled plans to rig the next election:
A new motion indicates the UCP's plans to manipulate the election maps for the next election in their favour, and without any requirement to consult the public.
This has never been done in Canadian history. /1
Today, it would mean the world to Nathan if you would consider donating to help build a better Alberta alongside the Alberta New Democrat team. All contributions make a huge difference.

Happy Birthday, Nathan! 🧡🥳🎂
On behalf of Nathan's volunteers, we want to wish him the happiest birthday!
Nathan's leadership, kindness, and positivity makes a real difference to our team, Constituency, and all of Alberta. Cheers to another year and a wonderful day here in Edmonton-South West!
Their thoughtful questions led to an engaging discussion about democracy. Always a pleasure connecting with the future leaders of our province. #ecsd #abed #yegsw
Wonderful to drop by Joan Carr School today to share some Easter treats with the Grade 1 students.
I also visited a Grade 6 class and spoke about my role as an MLA. We had a great conversation about how decisions are made and what representation looks like in practice.
Once again, the UCP shows how out of touch they are with the needs of Alberta students. Their amendments to the Education Act will do nothing to improve classroom conditions. Rather, they are playing politics at the expense of actually improving education. #ableg #abed #abpoli
Danielle Smith is trying to carve up your voting power like a pizza.
The UCP would rather rig the vote than earn yours.
March 31st is Trans Day of Visibility. Alberta’s New Democrats will always stand together in strength and solidarity with the trans community. Trans people are not political tools or weapons. They are our friends, family members, co-workers, and neighbours.
In the coming months, Albertans will feel the impact of the war in Iran at their kitchen tables and at the gas pump. Global oil disruptions have already pushed prices higher, and economists are warning that this could drive up the cost of everything from fuel to groceries. #ableg #abpoli
This week, I welcomed the Edgemont Community League to the Legislature. Community leagues play such an important role in supporting the vibrancy of local neighbourhoods.
Consider volunteering for your local community league. They deserve your support! #abpoli #ableg #yegsw
Many proposed data centers are in water-stressed areas of the province. Water is life. Albertans need a plan that will protect our water. #ableg #abpoli
Albertans are already facing an affordability crisis under the watch of this UCP government. And now we are facing even higher prices at the pump. When will this government put Albertans first and relieve them from high gas prices?
#abpoli #ableg #affordability
Albertans are paying more, but getting less.
Groceries. Insurance. Housing. Taxes. All up.
Meanwhile: waste, scandal, and entitlement from this UCP government.
Luxury perks and private jets for the Premier & UCP cabinet ministers
After 7 years, the record is clear:
Higher costs for you. Perks for the UCP.

Throughout Alberta’s history, newcomers have played an essential role in shaping and strengthening our province. Earlier this month during Lunar New Year, I honoured the significant role that Chinese Canadians and immigrants from all backgrounds have had in building Alberta’s communities. #abpoli
The vote of non-confidence by Treaty chiefs in this Premier and government should be a wake up call. #abpoli #ableg
WATCH LIVE: Alberta’s New Democrats respond to the UCP’s $9.4B Deficit Budget, which only makes life more expensive for Albertans.

Today I had the pleasure of attending Esther Starkman School’s Lunar New Year Assembly with my colleague, @pancholirakhi.bsky.social
Esther Starkman is one of 14 Mandarin bilingual schools here in Edmonton, and the pride the students showed was incredible! 🧧🐴🪭

This is absolutely heartbreaking. My thoughts are with the community of Tumbler Ridge, and with the families and friends grieving the loss of loved ones. I’m so sorry for your unimaginable loss.
In the days ahead, may we come together to support one another and hold this community close.
The Glastonbury Community League Annual New Year’s Day event was such a fun way to kick off 2026 - serving hot drinks with my team, fireworks, ice skating, and lots of great conversations with families from across the neighbourhood. It’s become an annual tradition for me and my constituency team.
Speaking with students and hearing their ideas for Alberta’s future is always a highlight for me. Thank you to the Grade 6 class at Parkland Immanuel Christian School for the thoughtful questions and genuine curiosity. You’re the future leaders of this province.

I am a proud Albertan and a proud Canadian.
Let me be clear: I am opposed to separatism and will always stand with Team Canada.
I signed the pledge. Will the UCP do the same?
