Our tradition, our pride, our identity is built on lifting each other up.
Today, and every day, we are proud Calgarians, proud Albertans, and PROUD Canadians.
Many Albertans are frustrated with the rollout of the new ID cards. The government was trying to solve a problem that didn't exist, and all it's really done is create havoc. The question is: why is the UCP making life more difficult for Albertans?
I was honoured to welcome the Aga Khan on his first visit to Alberta. I am proud to be an Ismaili Muslim, and deeply grateful for the incredible community we have here in Canada.
Before Danielle Smith repeatedly changed the rules to help the separatists, they would have needed roughly 600,000 signatures to force a vote.
The separatists didn't even come close to that number and nearly 80,000 signatures were tossed by Elections Alberta.
This is 100% Danielle Smith's separation referendum. She is the one caving to her far-right base. She is the one who is willing to tear Canada apart for her political gain.

The UCP is only taking direction from foreign billionaires on AI data centres.
We are listening to you!
So this August, we're launching a public consultation tour, and you're invited. Together we will make decisions in the best interest of all Albertans.
We've uncovered more invoices, to taxpayers, from Danielle Smith's referendum.
This vote won’t lower grocery or gas bills, build schools, create jobs, or help you find a family doctor. It’s an expensive political game for the premier, and Albertans are stuck footing the bill.
🚨 How to search for Parker on your property 🚨
Many people have asked what we mean when we ask residents to "check their property." In this video, Sergeant Chris Martin demonstrates how to properly search areas where Parker may seek shelter.
What might not make sense to you could make sense to Parker.
Please thoroughly check your own property and any public spaces you are permitted to access. Do not enter or search private property without permission.
Parker is known to enter accessible buildings and can lock doors behind him. Check homes, garages, sheds, vehicles, trailers, RVs, storage areas, under decks, between fences & hedges, & anywhere a child may seek shelter from the heat.
Parker is neurodivergent & non-verbal & may become frightened if approached by strangers. If you see him, do not approach. Keep him in sight & call 911 immediately.

What a jam packed weekend spent in the community getting to meet some amazing neighbours! It included a beautiful citizenship ceremony, some amazing cultural events and delicious lemonade.
Yet again Devin Dreeshen refuses to say where he stands on remaining in Canada.
Many other UCP MLAs and Ministers are also ducking the question. It’s clear that there are separatists in the UCP government.
Every Alberta NDP MLA signed a pledge saying they would fight to stay in Canada. Not one UCP MLA has done the same.
Danielle Smith put this national unity crisis question forward. She must come clean with Albertans, right now, about how many of her MLAs are separatists.
This past Friday, July 17, 2026, the Royal Canadian Legion marked its 100th anniversary, celebrating a century of service to Veterans, their families, and communities across Canada. 🇨🇦
I had the honour of attending the Kingsway Legion's symbolic flag-raising ceremony and joining in a moment of silence to recognize the Legion's enduring legacy, sacrifice, and commitment to service.
📹 Today we are releasing new CCTV footage of Parker on Thursday, July 16, 2026, at approximately 12:47 p.m. near McKnight Boulevard and Centre Street N.W.
This footage was taken just minutes before the previously released video from Thorncliffe and helps us further establish Parker's movements that day.
While it has not generated new leads, it remains an important piece of the investigation.
As a result, we're asking anyone in the Thorncliffe area who has CCTV footage from July 16, 2026, to today to please submit it to the police, even if Parker does not appear in the footage.
What may seem insignificant could help us identify travel routes or better understand where Parker may have gone.
This video was located through an extensive AI-assisted review of evidence.
Investigators are reviewing a massive volume of CCTV, residential security camera & dashcam footage, & this technology is helping us identify potential sightings much more quickly than would otherwise be possible.
📣 Anyone with information about his whereabouts, or who may have CCTV or dashcam footage of Parker, is asked to contact police by calling 403-266-1234 or by submitting it here: https://t.co/Z5ulkAdUSS

This referendum will cost nearly $180 million. Today we learned that premier Danielle Smith and the UCP spent $300,000 on a Toronto based firm to create a one-sided biased website to try and get the result they want.
They could’ve spent this money on healthcare, education, or reducing your cost of living. Instead, they spent it on promoting their extremist ideas and their extremist friends. Albertans deserve better.

We are releasing CCTV footage of Parker taken on Thursday, July 16, 2026, at 12:52 p.m. in the 5500 block of Travis Crescent N.E.
We are asking Calgarians to check their properties for signs of Parker. Every search matters & even places you've already looked should be checked a second time.
If you have a vehicle, truck, trailer or RV that hasn't been used recently, please open it & look inside. Thoroughly search garages, sheds, play structures, storage areas, utility rooms, cupboards, basements, under decks & other enclosed spaces where a child may seek shelter from the heat. Look carefully in narrow spaces between fences & hedges, behind lawn equipment & in any small area where a child could go unnoticed.
We also know Parker has a tendency to enter homes and lock doors behind him. We are asking residents to carefully check their homes, garages & sheds once more. Your attention could make all the difference.

Let's not forget David Parker (a good friend of Danielle Smith's—she even attended his wedding), the same man under RCMP investigation over his alleged role in the massive data breach that put millions of Albertans at risk.
Danielle Smith should never have pandered to the separatist movement. Time and again, they've shown they have little interest in following the rules.
🔎 MEDIA AVAILABILITY - MISSING CHILD - PARKER 🔍
Today, investigators released a new CCTV image of Parker that was captured on Thursday, July 16, at 12:52 p.m., in the 5000 to 6000 block of Travis Crescent N.E. We are hopeful the image will help generate new leads & assist members of the public in recognizing Parker & reporting information about his whereabouts.
Since Parker was reported missing, the CPS has dedicated significant resources to locating him. More than 200 CPS members have assisted in the search effort, including investigators, patrol officers & specialized units working around the clock to follow up on leads & search areas where Parker may have travelled. We have received approx. 30 tips & have reviewed, or are currently reviewing, roughly 50 hours of CCTV, residential security camera & dashcam footage. Officers have also conducted extensive door-to-door inquiries & continue to identify, collect & review additional video footage & evidence related to Parker's movements.
Approx. 100 to 120 trained search volunteers coordinated through Search & Rescue Alberta joined ongoing search operations in N.W. Calgary. As these efforts continue, members of the public may see a significant police & search presence in the area, including the Air Support Unit, Canine Unit, Mounted Patrol Team, Mountain Bike Unit, patrol officers, investigators & trained search volunteers.
We are truly grateful for the support shown by Calgarians. Residents can assist by checking their own properties, including garages, sheds, backyards, under decks & other areas where a child may seek shelter or hide.
🔍 We ask that members of the public only search in public areas & do not enter private property without permission. Please do not interrupt or interfere with police operations or search efforts already underway.

🗒️ Statement from the Family: 🗒️
Parker is a loved son, brother and friend. Our family is heartbroken by his disappearance.
Since he went missing, our family has been living every parent's worst nightmare. Every hour that passes without knowing where he is or whether he is safe has been incredibly devastating for us.
We are asking everyone in the Calgary community to keep an eye out for Parker. Please check your neighbourhoods, parks, green spaces, yards, sheds, garages, RVs, vehicles, hot tubs and other places where he may have found shelter.
Parker experiences the world in his own way. He may not respond when his name is called, and he can become frightened when approached by people he does not know.
If you see Parker, please do not approach him. Give him space and call police immediately with his location while keeping him in view.
A single sighting, a piece of video footage, or one small detail could help find him. Our only wish right now is to know that he is safe and to bring him home.
The incredible support from our Calgary community has truly been overwhelming. To everyone who has searched, passed along his photo, provided information, shared video footage, or kept Parker in your thoughts, thank you. Knowing that so many wonderful people care and are tirelessly looking for our son has given us strength during the most difficult time of our lives.
Parker is deeply loved, and he is missed immensely. We just want our son home.

Community members who wish to help can look in public areas within the northwest communities of Cambrian Heights, Thorncliffe, North Haven, North Haven Upper, Highwood, Highland Park, Greenview, Greenview Industrial Park, Nose Hill Park and surrounding areas.
While search efforts are currently focused in these communities, we are asking all Calgarians to keep Parker in mind. You do not need to live in the immediate area to help, for every extra set of eyes can make a difference.
We do ask that members of the public only search in public areas and do not enter private property without permission.
We also ask the public not to interrupt or interfere with police operations or search efforts already underway. If you see Parker, do not approach him, as he can become easily frightened and may attempt to hide. Instead, keep your distance and contact police immediately.
Anyone who may have CCTV or dashcam footage of Parker is also asked to contact police to assist in our search. CCTV or dashcam footage can be uploaded at: https://t.co/Z5ulkAdUSS
Thank you for your continued support and cooperation as search efforts continue. We will provide updates through our social media channels and advise the public if additional community volunteers are needed.
