I got off the phone with Brandon at Party Headquarters earlier today, and I couldn’t be more excited with the results from our big end-of-quarter fundraising campaign.

#ableg 🥳

From the bottom of my heart, thank you for being a part of this work. 🧡

Today, the Prime Minister of Canada and the Mayor of Calgary came together to announce construction of the Green Line will begin this fall.

Noticeably absent was Premier Jason Kenney.

1/6 #ableg #yyc
Four years ago yesterday, I was proud to stand in Calgary and announce my provincial government’s full commitment to getting the Green Line underway as soon as possible.

2/6 #ableg #yyc
We heard clearly today that, under the leadership of Jason Kenney, the project was stalled and delayed by at least one year.

Albertans need leadership that is focused on the challenges they face .. with their needs front and centre.

I don’t have any insight into the motives of Todd Loewen or others in the UCP Caucus who may support him. 1/7 #ableg
But I do know that the emergency department in the Fairview hospital — in his riding, and that’s also my hometown — was closed due to a shortage of doctors and MLA Loewen brought up Jason Kenney’s war on doctors in his letter. 2/7 #ableg
Fairview is one of three rural hospitals in that situation right now.

We have serious problems in our rural hospitals … and an overwhelmed contact tracing system in the midst of a massive third wave.

And that’s not all. 3/7 #ableg

Historically, Alberta has been a leading voice - both nationally and internationally - on matters of energy policy and diplomacy.

That makes sense, as the working people of this province, and our broader economy, depend on the success of our energy industry. #ableg
We’ve seen a decade of intense pipeline politics, but Line 5 is something new. It's the first threat of shutting down an operating pipeline.

This is an existential threat to our province. #ableg
And so Albertans are asking why the current Premier is nowhere to be seen at this critical moment.

The Premier has a critical role, but he is missing. #ableg

Why isn’t Alberta’s premier playing a central role in resolving this issue?

Part of the reason that he is not at the table right now is the damage he has done to his own credibility.

#ableg #cdnpoli
In November, the Premier called the Governor of Michigan “brain dead” and then complained in a radio interview that he could not even get a meeting with her during a trip to the state in 2019.
Now I don’t defend Governor Whitmer or her position, but the Premier of Alberta should be able to get a meeting with her - as a matter of respect if nothing else.

According to numbers released by Statistics Canada today, 13,000 jobs were lost in April as Alberta became the COVID-19 hotspot in Canada and the United States. #ableg
The survey was conducted from April 11-17, which means the data does not reflect any of the recent public health restrictions that were introduced to address the soaring number of COVID cases in AB that led to the highest infection rate among all provinces and US states. #ableg
This shows that Jason Kenney and his UCP government's failure to act has hurt our economy and left thousands of Albertans unemployed. And their failure to act means the economic impact will be deeper and further delay the recovery. #ableg

Albertans, you’re frustrated, you’re confused, you’re angry and you’re scared.

Premier Kenney's announcement should have helped, but instead it’s created more questions.

#ableg 🧵
First and foremost, do the measures that apply today, apply across the province or are they are still on a regional basis as was put forward last week?

If it’s the latter, it’s a profound failure.
The Premier is continuing to make false promises and create false hope, setting up for further challenges and disappointment in the weeks to come.
