Christina Gray

Your Alberta NDP MLA in Edmonton-Mill Woods & the Official Opposition House Leader. For Alberta. For All of Us.

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Tonight, at the Field of Crosses, we came together to honour the brave Canadians who served and sacrificed so much for the country we are fortunate to call home.

We remember their courage, their sacrifice, and the freedoms they fought to protect.

Lest we forget.

Governments don't generally impose time limits on motions they are confident in defending. So for the UCP to have just 1 hour of debate on their new electoral map, it's an indication this whole thing is exactly what we think it is — cheating. #ableg

The UCP has upended the riding boundaries system and destroyed public trust in the process. Column.

We call upon the UCP to do the right thing: Bring back the map that respects the voice and votes of all Albertans.

It is a truly amazing coincidence that every change proposed in these new maps advantages the UCP and disadvantages the Alberta NDP. https://t.co/BswSVvPNau

All provinces rely on independent boundary commissions to draw electoral maps. Smith rejected the boundary commission map and asked her MLAs to draw a pro-UCP map.

This is unprecedented. It's brazen US-style gerrymandering. It's cheating.

[Christina Gray @ChristinaNDP]

Danielle Smith and the UCP should have implemented the independent commission’s report six months ago and they could still do it now. Albertans deserve to vote in free, fair and timely elections. The UCP should stop cheating and do the right thing #ABLEG #ABPOLI

[Alberta NDP @albertaNDP]

The UCP is carving up Lethbridge to cheat to win.

We know everyone has a lot on their minds following the referendum, the recent electoral boundaries developments, and what’s to come in the future.

Bring all your questions! We hope to see you there!

WATCH LIVE: Alberta NDP House Leader @ChristinaNDP provides updates on the Boundaries Committee Electoral Maps Report expected to be tabled in the Legislature today

https://t.co/VyPJ76Cr0F

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

For immediate release:

"For months, the Alberta NDP Caucus has been warning against UCP attempts to violate the democratic rights of Albertans and bring in election maps only meant to deliver a win for the UCP in the next election no matter what voters want.

"Elections Alberta warned Danielle Smith months ago that they need 12 to 18 months to implement new maps under perfect conditions. Instead, the UCP repeatedly changed the law to help themselves, denied Elections Alberta the resources it requested, and put all Albertans through a wasteful and incredibly costly referendum. Now Elections Alberta says they just don’t have enough time to implement the UCP’s rigged map in time for the October 27 fixed election date — a date already extended by Danielle Smith to give herself six more months in power.

"Danielle Smith and the UCP should have implemented the independent commission’s report six months ago and they could still do it now. Albertans deserve to vote in free, fair and timely elections. The UCP should stop cheating and do the right thing."

[Christina Gray @ChristinaNDP]

This unconstitutional & illegitimate do-over of the boundaries process has been nothing more than a blatant partisan exercise, intended to secure a future UCP win regardless of how Albertans vote - & Albertans won’t even get to see this sham report before it’s tabled on Nov 2nd

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Public inquiry. Now.

[Alberta NDP @albertaNDP]

We’ve been demanding a public inquiry for over a year. Danielle Smith and the UCP keep refusing. Why? What are they afraid a public inquiry might uncover?

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

The Alberta NDP spent the summer talking to hundreds of thousands of Albertans, and what we've heard over and over is that they are concerned about the state of health care, education, and the rising cost of living.

The UCP has no plan to address these issues, so we will offer real solutions.

[Naheed Nenshi @nenshi]

Today is the day, Alberta! Get out and make your voice heard, and most importantly, help save Canada. I urge you to vote in the best interests of all Albertans. Vote Option 1 on Question 10 and NO to the other 9 questions.

Canada today, Canada tomorrow, Canada forever! 🇨🇦
