One Card. That’s it.

Starting July 2, Albertans can get a new driver’s licence or ID card that includes their healthcare number and proof of citizenship, all on one secure card at no additional cost.

No more flimsy paper cards. No more carrying multiple pieces of ID. Just a common-sense change that makes life easier.

Canada may be in a recession but Alberta is not. We are moving forward with several energy, agriculture, technology and other projects that are creating great jobs and futures for Albertans.

Here are just a few examples.

Alberta’s government is testing a higher speed limit, raising it from 110 to 120 km/h south of Leduc along a section of Highway 2. The government will be working alongside law enforcement to closely monitor driver behaviour and collect safety assessments during this pilot.

Have you had a chance to look at the Nuclear Energy Engagement and Advisory Panel's Report from the recent public engagement?

As part of the final report submitted to government for consideration, the panel made a number of recommendations for government’s consideration as we develop a nuclear energy roadmap, including:

⚡Enhancing the public’s understanding of nuclear energy through early, accessible, fact-based information.
⚡Determining and communicating Alberta’s role in decision-making.
⚡Strengthening coordination with federal assessment, licensing and regulatory processes.
⚡Continuing long-term relationship-building and policy dialogue with Indigenous communities.
⚡Supporting meaningful participation by municipalities, First Nations and Métis Settlements in future proposed project review processes.
⚡Strengthening Alberta’s readiness through emergency planning and further analysis of economic, workforce and market implications.

Thank you to Minister @neudorf_ab for your dedicated leadership and work in the Ministry of Affordability and Utilities. It has been an honour to work with you.

I look forward to working with Minister @RjSigurdson to continue advancing Alberta’s nuclear energy future.

With the recent release of our Nuclear Energy Engagement and Advisory Panel Report, #CNA2026 was a valuable opportunity to connect with leaders from across Canada, including Minister René Legacy and Minister Stephen Lecce, as Alberta develops its nuclear energy roadmap.

The spring sitting of the Alberta Legislature has come to an end after a productive session focused on strengthening the economy, as well as protections for communities, consumers, and vulnerable Albertans.

[Nathan Neudorf @neudorf_ab]

We're building a strong foundation for the future of energy in our province, and that includes supporting innovation.

A total of $5 million is being invested through our government and @ERAlberta_ & @UAlberta to build a new prototype research reactor which could help advance small-scale nuclear technologies.

“The Alberta Nuclear Energy Engagement Panel Report is an important step toward enabling nuclear energy development in Alberta. Alberta has long been a global energy leader, and this report helps define the conditions needed for its next chapter: public confidence, regulatory clarity, Indigenous partnership, workforce readiness, and long-term policy coordination.” - @erveinagosalci , Founder and CEO of @CanadianSMRs & @SmrForum

@dehavillandAIR is making one of the country’s biggest investments in aviation and aerospace, and it’s coming right here to Alberta.

The construction of De Havilland Field is a historic stamp of confidence in Alberta and once fully built, will create an estimated 3,000 permanent jobs in skilled trades, engineering, manufacturing and aviation services.

Congratulations to De Havilland Canada on this next chapter in their company’s history.

[Searle Turton @SearleTurton]

Every Albertan deserves to feel safe in their homes and communities.

Budget 2026 strengthens supports and coordinated services for young Albertans who have experienced sexual abuse.

Let’s keep the conversation going and continue showing up for survivors in our communities.

During Catholic Education Week, we recognize the important role Catholic education plays in supporting students, families, and communities across Alberta.

We celebrate the dedication of educators and staff who help create positive learning environments where students can learn, grow, and prepare for the future.

[Chantelle de Jonge @CdeJongeAB]

Public safety is a top priority for Albertans.

Federal DNA casework costs have increased by 50% over the past decade, adding pressure on municipalities and property taxpayers.

That’s why our government is taking action now to establish a provincial forensic DNA laboratory

[Joseph Schow @JosephSchowAB]

Today, in partnership with the Government of Canada, we announced a $68.5 million investment to support Alberta’s workforce amid ongoing global economic uncertainty. This funding will expand access to training and upskilling programs, helping workers adapt to a rapidly evolving labour market. Over the next three years, more than 7,800 Albertans will gain the skills and experience needed to succeed in the jobs of today and tomorrow.
