Bill 20 represents further escalation of the UCP’s efforts to undermine, control and scapegoat City Councils. The hostility we are seeing is part of a larger strategy to remake local government in their own image and bully us into submission. This is an attack on local democracy.

Local issues are not partisan issues. I am opposed to establishing political parties at the municipal level. 

There are many pressing issues that require a collaborative approach to municipal governance, and local elected officials need to be able to work across partisan lines.…

Councillor Tang deserves an unequivocal apology from the Premier.

What if I started a post by saying I received an unsigned letter that alleges a MLA did something unethical? I hope you would call me irresponsible because suggesting that someone is doing something wrong without evidence and an investigation is harmful. #yegcc #ableg #abpoli

Amazing to see! 👀

Edmonton lost a rare historic gem last night. Hangar 11 was one of the last of its kind in Western Canada. Constructed in 1942, it was a training ground for pilots during WWII, and has a rich history of connecting Edmonton to the international community. An irreplaceable loss.

Capilano Library has one of the great building approaches in Edmonton. Protection from precipitation, of course, but the coziness of the enclosure, the warmth of the wood, the cadence of the timbers, and the sharpness of the peak do good things to me as I enter.

Outdoor Community League AGM in the sunshine? Yes please! 😎☀️

Had a great time hearing about all of the excellent work happening at Bonnie Doon CL. We are lucky to have such dedicated and engaged community leaders across #WardMétis helping bring us together!

The Provincial Priorities Act will profoundly stifle Edmonton’s ability to remain competitive and deliver a good quality of life for residents. Cities depend on strong partnerships with other orders of gov. Gatekeeping federal funding suppresses our economy and hurts us all. #yeg

The Government of Alberta pays to maintain Calgary’s Deerfoot Trail, but doesn’t pay the same maintenance for the Yellowhead or Whitemud.

Edmonton deserves a fair deal to maintain our provincial highways within city boundaries.

The Provincial Priorities Act creates unnecessary complexity and red tape. This legislation will stifle economic growth, stall infrastructure projects and cause investor uncertainty. The added barrier will slow down investment and hurt our ability to keep up with growth.…

Today, Amarjeet Sohi joined Andrea Sandmaier, President of the Otipemisiwak Métis Government to announce a new seniors housing project.

This is the first affordable housing project under a new grant for Indigenous-led organizations.

This doesn’t even include the additional 100,000 people that moved into Edmonton in the last 2 years. We have a lot of work to do in order to address this rapid population growth. #yeg #yeg cc andrewknack.ca/blog/readyforit
