Our persistent data-based advocacy on behalf of Edmontonians is paying off! I have worked hard to get fair compensation for Edmonton in this budget.

The UCP is finally paying their property taxes.

Lots of issues with the #abbudget but after Kenney unilaterally slashed the province's property taxes in half in 2020, it is very good news that cities are getting full value again

We're not getting the $100M+ in backtaxes though.

Well . . . when you explain it rationally, of course it doesn't make sense. But it's always in my best interest to blame someone else so my supporters don't see the UCP's utter incompetence.

A social media meme showing a young black child questioning an adult white lady with the caption reading: Wait. Danielle Smith budgeted for $75/barrel oil, but over the past decade oil has averaged $64/barrel. And she's still telling us that the deficit is because of Trudeau and immigration?

Well look, it's your fault for getting cancer in the first place, so the least you could do is have the courtesy to get sick during regular office hours.

1/7 👉Alberta's Budget Short on Education & Healthcare👈

The province budgeted $10B for K-12 education (4.5% increase) and $28B for healthcare (5.4% increase)—both below the 7.3% population+inflation benchmark.

5/6 The stakes are high: unions representing 250,000 public sector workers are bargaining for fair wages. "Anything short of wage increases that keep up with inflation is a cut that means workers will fall further behind. That's completely unacceptable!"

Budget day should be about investing in Albertans, not UCP insiders. Families need relief from healthcare cuts, rising costs, and underfunded services—not more handouts for the well-connected. Albertans deserve better. #ABBudget

We asked Albertans what matters most & they answered.

Our budget proposal reflects your priorities—not the UCP’s political agendas. It’s time for a government that puts people first.

I look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the Province and Premier Smith to ensure Edmontonians are well supported.

I will continue to advocate for fairness for Edmontonians as we receive more details about the provincial budget over the coming weeks.
