The Alberta Liberal Caucus has enjoyed several victories in the legislature this session.
Healthcare dominated the fall session of the legislature, led by our call for a much needed emergency debate on healthcare. The government, continuing to be out of touch with issues of importance to Albertans, limited debate to 75 minutes. It was only after [...]

Albertans are lucky to live in a province filled with such natural beauty. Our lakes, rivers, and streams along with the mountains and prairie grasslands make this a stunning place to live and for people to visit. We must ensure that our land, water, and air are healthy for our own benefit and for the [...]

Canada and Alberta need more markets for our oil and gas, and Enbridge’s plan to construct a pipeline to Kitimat would open up those markets for us. Combined with the Alberta Liberal plan to increase bitumen upgrading here in Alberta and western Canada, the pipeline would guarantee greater prosperity and economic security for all Canadians.

There’s an opportunity in Alberta for real political change. Albertans have lost trust in the Stelmach Conservatives and see a lurch to the Wildrose Alliance as a move from frying pan to fire.

The initiative includes an independent and binding body [...]

The Legislative Assembly is set to begin Thursday, February 4th at 3pm. This is an exciting year of opportunities for the Alberta Liberal Caucus. As your MLA, and the Leader of the Official Opposition, I have heard from Albertans across the province that simply want common sense in our government!
We’re looking for [...]

An exciting day for Alberta Liberals. Our Energy Critic Dave Taylor announced our new Oil and Gas Policy, the first of a set of new policies that clarify and refine our Party position on this vital industry for Alberta and Canada. Dave’s
consultation process with the stakeholders in the oil and gas industries was long and [...]

The Alberta Liberal Caucus believes that all students have the right to receive the best possible education. Alberta’s students should not have to suffer as a result of inadequate planning by the Stelmach Administration. Albertans saw what happened in the early 1990s when this Government made drastic and painful changes to our [...]
