I’m still getting my head around this. My team responded to 18 overdoses in 8 hours today. I’m so proud of them and grateful for their skill and caring. I’m also so angry that it has to be this way. And it’s only getting worse. We can’t 12 step our way out of this.
Here is my statement on Danielle Smith’s connection with Artur Pawlowski:
I’m writing today as someone seeking to become Premier of Alberta.
But I am also someone who simply and deeply loves this province.
And I am profoundly concerned about all we have seen today.
🧵 1/6
A vote for ANY candidate from UCP is a vote for Danielle Smith. A vote for ANY candidate from UCP is a vote for more of what we’ve been through the last 4 years and worse.
Please retweet. A lot.

In a time when social media is filled with some really poor medical advice and conspiracy theories, @shazmamithani is using her expertise for the cause of good. #top40yeg#yeg https://t.co/EyUQHJvDK8
Something is rotten in Denmark. Danielle Smith has never won a provincial election, yet she has become Premier without facing the electorate.
She should call an election immediately and let all Albertans vote. #ableg#abpoli

It shouldn’t just be the recent comments about cancer that should keep @ABDanielleSmith from being Premier, but the many other dangerous or unreasonable statements she has made during the campaign. #abpoli#ableg#yeg#yyc#ucpldr

Elon Musk told the United Nations he would give them $6 billion to end world hunger if they showed him a detailed plan of how they would use the money. They called his bluff and gave him their plan— and then they never got the money. Now he’s buying Twitter for $45 billion.

If homeless individuals were building shelters out of wood in front of the house of commons, they wouldn’t get so far as putting up a single wall. They would be removed by the authorities.
Edmonton - I’m personally aware of 41 drug poisonings in the last 48 hours. Please take care, especially with dope that’s orange, or dill pickle. Majority of ODs inhaled. Go slow. Don’t use alone. Take turns. Be visible. Have naloxone. Stay safe. We love you.
Gentle reminder - 211 is just amazing, but they aren’t an ambulance. They are stretched greatly in these cold days. Please check a person and assess for frostbite/hypothermia. They may need help more quickly than 211 can manage. Might need 911, or you taking someone to get help.
