We have formally asked Alberta’s Information and Privacy Commissioner to direct the Minister of Education to release hidden documents related to school re-entry.
We made three requests under the Freedom of Information Act for documents that include correspondence with teachers, superintendents and school districts about school re-entry planning, as well as internal discussion about these messages and prominent media coverage.
The Minister’s Office claims that none of these records exist. Even the ones we were cc'd on.

We’re sharing documents that have come into our possession. I'll be completely candid - they showed up in the mail. I don’t know who sent them.
There are 35 pages of photos of a presentation to cabinet detailing the UCP’s scheme to rip apart Albertans’ public health care.
This is a plan to massively concentrate control of healthcare in Danielle Smith’s office.
It’s a blueprint for chaos in our clinics and hospitals.
Those UCP members who cheered for more rural or local decision-making in healthcare at their AGM this weekend are about to find out they’ve been brutally double-crossed. None of that is in here.
Three years ago, like many Albertans, my family adopted a "COVID pup" from Zoe’s animal rescue society. 🧵
Johnny was a tiny puppy, we had no idea he’d get so big (over 90 lbs now).
We watched with amazement (and a little horror) as he grew by leaps and grounds that summer.
With big dog comes big love. Johnny is a great cuddler. Johnny is trained-ish.
Johnny loves his food, a good bone and barking at birds he will never catch.
We all feel a little safer when he growls at cats walking by the house. If you are looking for a pet, or just want to support a fine animal rescue organization – I can’t recommend Zoe’s enough.
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.

“Childcare creates opportunities for our kids to have the best start in life by preparing them for school and ensuring they learn through play,” said @pancholi_rakhi.

In 2019, the UCP cancelled the Alberta NDP’s affordable childcare program and failed to implement the federally funded $10-a-day childcare program, leaving thousands of parents on waitlists.
