The AB Budget is surprising because the Premier last week (and the Minister today) signaled that they want to get off the resource rollercoaster. But Budget 2024 ratchets up that dependence further. From $68/bbl last year req'd to balance, up to $73/bbl this year. #ableg

Under-the-radar bit about last night: Toronto just elected a mayor without a driver's license. In a city that's had its past decade shaped by driver culture, that elected Rob Ford based off his moaning about the "war on cars", this is a truly seismic shift.

If we win this election, we will expand affordable childcare to include before- and after-school care—and we will accelerate $10/day childcare for all Albertans.

We need affordable childcare that works for working parents.

Matthew was living rough in Edmonton, he didn’t know where he’d be sleeping. He moved into Prairie Manor a couple months ago and says he is blessed. Not only was he given a warm and safe place to be, they gave him art supplies so he could paint. @GlobalEdmonton #yeg

To fight climate change, we need to use every tool in the toolbox - including #Nuclear.

That’s why it was a pleasure to announce support for the Darlington Station #SMR this morning - the first grid-scale SMR among G7 nations.

Fun fact: my 1st job in govt was as a Scheduling Asst to a Cabinet Minister. Lots of ppl assumed, and treated me as if I knew nothing. Maybe true for policy matters, but everything else? I knew it all. #GR101: be nice to the schedulers!

Survey after survey (including by the Fair Deal Panel) shows this is unpopular. Municipalities don't want it. But the Kenney govt, in its last two months, is pursuing it.

As it stands, Alberta is the only province where parents cannot book COVID vaccine appointments for children under 5.
