There is definitely a crisis in access to primary care and acute care.

From the many people who reach out to me it is also clear they cannot get many types of specialty care either.

The chaos of breaking up AHS and Alberta Health is not helping.

Family, Art Gallery of Alberta and 5 Artists 1 Love have the most amazing artwork on display. Took my son for a visit this afternoon, so many incredible pieces of art. Please bring your families & friends to AGA & please don’t forget to purchase tickets to the “Joyful Noise” concert.

One of the best times of the year, it’s Deep Freeze: A Byzantine Winter Festival! ❤️‍🔥

It’s on all weekend long in our Alberta Avenue neighbourhood. And it’s free! Music, art, ice sculptures, treats, so much more, all thanks to Arts On The Ave and the amazing artists and volunteers who make it possible! 🙏

Dotted with local businesses such as bakeries, dimsum and hotpot restaurants, and bubble tea places, there is so much to uncover in Edmonton’s Chinatown. Visit our displays to learn more about its rich and vibrant history!

I had never endorsed the NDP in any election. But my father taught me that character matters more than anything else in government. I felt Rachel Notley’s leadership character, particularly her aversion to chaos,

Albertans are advocating for a reliable, affordable & low-emissions grid 👏

The emergency alert showed that the UCP is hoping & relying on consumers’ goodwill to reduce electricity demand.

Not a strategy! Hope isn’t a strategy. Govts should be planning for the future

If we spend all of our time making noise and not doing the hard work, we may never get anything done.

'We know what the solutions are...it’s building more housing, including permanent supportive housing, the type of projects that save lives and save money too.'

Thank you Janis Irwin for these words.

This isn't 'politics.'

It's about humanity, reminding people at risk of being excluded that there is a place for them in this game and the world at times when forces might suggest otherwise.

Go Oilers, go.

One of our most limited resources: Anesthesiologists

The more we lose the greater the burnout. And of course if surgeons cannot get OR time to care for their patients and earn a living we will lose more surgeons.

And … they are also experts in pain management. Pain is not…

Rachel Notley is one of the most inspiring, compassionate, brilliant, and kind leaders our province and country has ever known. Her announcement today that she is stepping down as leader saddens many of us. She brought so much good to Alberta!

And if nothing else about our gov shocks you, then this should.

It is running a $26B enterprise. And it eliminated its workforce planning group.

Just that alone should make us question government/management.
