Justice Wyant’s report on #CorruptCare states on Page 3 that “unlike a public inquiry, this investigation did not have power to subpoena or hear testimony under oath. As a result, people had the opportunity to decline to be interviewed. Some did.”

We need a full public inquiry now.

Last night, I went to the “Life of Pi” play at the Citadel Theatre with @janisirwin.bsky.social and @dianabatten.bsky.social!

If you're looking for a night out with friends or family, check out the Citadel Theatre. This year marks its 60th anniversary as a true gem in Edmonton’s arts scene!

Teachers are being told to make do with overcrowded classrooms and zero support while the UCP refuses to fund new schools or plan for growth.

It's not neglect. It’s a conscious choice.
And it’s failing Alberta’s kids.

Let's talk about it. ⬇️

Teachers are being told to make do. They deserve better.

I'm happy to hear you were able to pre-order & I share your concerns about the UCP govt's ability to deliver for Albertans.
This approach to Public Health is risky and I'm not in favour of gambling with the lives of Albertans. Shame.
