#Calgary has huge potential for economic growth & prosperity by attracting investment & high-skilled labor.
But, as the @calgaryeconomic.bsky.social speakers pointed out yesterday:
Separation & the UCP referendum is a barrier to growth.

Danielle Smith (UCP) has been an MLA for 1,456 days (this time). She refuses to sign the pledge to stand up for Canada.
Alberta deserves more MLAs like Kyle Campbell who will actually fight to keep Alberta in Canada.

Five of their ministers are on taxpayer-funded trips around the globe. I guess, though, if you are a separatist party, you wouldn’t care about saving Canada.

After being sworn in as MLA for Calgary-Shaw, I signed the pledge to defend Canada. As a proud fourth-generation Canadian, I firmly oppose separatism.
My ancestors fought for freedom and Canada in WWII; we carry that legacy on. Albertans deserve to know where their MLA stands.

Banff #Pride was incredible!
I not only got to spend the day in #Banff, but also had the privilege of meeting and talking with some remarkable Albertans.
Our Alberta is a place where everyone is free to be who they are & love who they want.
Diversity makes our province stronger,

Last Season on "The Legislature" the Minister said you can take a "managed approach" to coal. 🙄 Sir, you can put lipstick on a pig, but it still smells an awful lot like pork chops in here. (1/2)
