After seeing Musk emphatically do the Nazi salute yesterday, I’m deleting this app and this will be the last tweet I send. My account will still be here but I won’t. Feel free to follow me at BlueSky. Link: bsky.app/profile/janeteremen… #ableg #abpoli #yyc

I write with mixed feelings to announce that today I will be sending a letter to the Speaker of the Alberta Legislative Assembly, advising of my intent to resign my position as the MLA for Edmonton Strathcona, effective December 30, 2024. It was last January this year when I announced I would be stepping down as leader of Alberta’s NDP. I was excited and proud to see our membership swell to over 80,000 members as four worthy contestants sought their votes in June of this year. Naheed Nenshi’s selection represents a tremendous opportunity for all Albertans seeking practical solutions to the affordability crisis, along with a genuine commitment to fixing our healthcare so that all Albertans can get the support they need no matter where they live or how much they earn. It has been an indescribable honour to represent the people of my neighbourhood and community for almost 17 years. Edmonton Strathcona is a diverse constituency, defined by an unparalleled level of connection between its residents that plays out every day at festivals, independent small businesses of all types, theatres, schools, playgrounds, parks, trails, and community leagues. To all of my constituents, thank you for putting your trust in me over these many years, and thank you for your support, advice and engagement along the way. To the staff and volunteers who worked beside me to make life better for Albertans, your work contributed to doing just that, in so many ways. To my fellow caucus members, you’re a dedicated, caring and fun team. I’m going to miss you, but mostly I can’t wait for you to form government so you can get to work building a better future for all Albertans. Finally, to my family, thank you again for supporting it all. See you on the trails!

RT @DShepYEG: Last week, Min. Ellis announced he’s going to add up to 3 new UCP-picked members to the Edmonton Police Commission. He says…

On the doors this week folks have told me their top concerns are access to health care and affordability. If the UCP won't deliver on those things- maybe they could at least laminate healthcare cards? Asking for a province. #ableg #abpoli

We have been in session for two weeks. Here’s a short list on some of the legislation that is priority for the UCP: 1) dog whistling about “rights” - amendments that accomplish little except faking that anti-vaxxers were “discriminated against” (they were not) #AbLeg

Join MLA Brooks Arcand-Paul and I tomorrow, Friday Nov. 8 at 5pm as we discuss his findings after visiting several Indigenous communities across Alberta. Bill 209: Reconciliation Implementation Act. #reconciliation #reconciliaction insta handle @rodloyola

To our sisters south of the border: We stand with you. We support you. We are here for you.

This is all on the provincial UCP government. Not our municipalities, not the federal government. Stop blaming others and help do the work that needs to be done here. #ableg

The UCP likes to blame other levels of government for issues around public safety but a lot of it falls directly at their feet. #ableg

Yesterday Alberta’s NDP Opposition broke with convention to emphatically vote no at first reading of three historically cruel cynical and bullying pieces of legislation - all three of which breach Canada’s Charter of Rights and Freedoms.

AMA Physicians' response to comments made by the Premier today in media availability regarding the opioid crisis.

For everyone who feels scared & worried about their identity & being who they are, know that the @albertaNDP & I stand with & support you. Thank you to @QCUyyc @campfyreflyyeg @YYCsexualhealth @fyrefly_ua & others for your advocacy #TransRightsAreHumanRights #abpoli #ableg

You’ve changed, Premier. But it’s not too late to do the right thing. #ableg

Had to do a bit of fact-checking on Don Braid's weekend column. If our news media can't, or isn't willing to, provide accurate information about important topics, how can we expect the public to make good educated opinions on them? #ableg #yyc
