Let’s talk about the facts. Not conspiracies, not false myths spread on social media – facts. Danielle Smith’s policy targeting trans and gender-diverse youth is an attack on a vulnerable group of youth and on thousands of Albertans. It is a massive overstep into private health care decisions. And it is an attack on the fundamental education rights of kids in our province. But don’t take it from me: listen to the experts and allies in our video. Listen to the people with real, lived experiences. Share this video and information with your friends and help combat the misinformation being spread by the Alberta government. Sign our petition and tell Danielle Smith to stop pursuing these proposed changes. Tell her that Albertans believe all human rights must be protected. albertandpcaucus.ca/take-act… #ableg #alberta #transrightsarehumanrights

Many employees managing long COVID symptoms don't ask for workplace accommodations because they don't know whom to ask or they're afraid to ask. Learn how to support your workers with long COVID. #Inclusion #DisabilityInclusion #LongCOVID #Accommodations bit.ly/3ByGXFD

Every day, police officers put themselves in harm’s way to keep people safe. The news that two @EdmontonPolice officers have been killed in the line of duty reminds us of that reality. I’m sending my condolences to the officers’ loved ones and colleagues – we’re here for you.
