Alberta’s government is investing in a pilot project that aims to improve cancer screening access and increase early detection rates among underserved populations.
The project focuses on increasing rates of testing in particular groups who have low rates and invite eligible Albertans, including Indigenous people and individuals living in rural and remote communities to participate.
This will help create effective and lasting HPV self-sampling methods for under-screened populations and establish the steps needed to expand cervical self-screening across the province.

So important to ask the individuals you want to support, how best to do that.

So, I spoke to people getting food at a food bank and here are some things I learned from those in need:
1. Everyone donates Kraft Mac and Cheese in the box. They can rarely use it because it needs milk and butter which is hard to get from regular food banks.
2. Boxed milk is a treasure, as kids need it for cereal which they also get a lot of.
3. Everyone donates pasta sauce and spaghetti noodles.
4. They cannot eat all the awesome canned veggies and soup unless you put a can opener in too or buy pop tops.
5. Oil is a luxury but needed for Rice a-Roni which they also get a lot of.
6. Spices or salt and pepper would be a real Christmas gift.
7. Tea bags and coffee make them feel like you care.
8. Sugar and flour are treats.
9. They fawn over fresh produce donated by farmers and grocery stores.
10. Seeds are cool in Spring and Summer because growing can be easy for some.
11. They rarely get fresh meat.
12. Tuna and crackers make a good lunch.
13. Hamburger Helper goes nowhere without ground beef.
14. They get lots of peanut butter and jelly but usually not sandwich bread.
15. Butter or margarine is nice too.
16. Eggs are a real commodity.
17. Cake mix and frosting makes it possible to make a child’s birthday cake.
18. Dishwashing detergent is very expensive and is always appreciated.
19. Feminine hygiene products are a luxury and women will cry over that.
20. Everyone loves Stove Top Stuffing.
In all the years I have donated food at the Holidays, I bought what I thought they wanted, but have never asked. I am glad I did. If you are helping a Family this Christmas, maybe this can help you tailor it more. It does for me!

BREAKING: The independent Parliamentary Budget Officer says the Liberals' second carbon tax will cost the average Albertan family $1,157 more a year, the average Canadian $573, and will hit low-income Canadians the hardest!
Worse, the PBO says the policy will do nothing to actually reduce global emissions.
The Liberals’ tax scam is not an environmental plan. Conservatives will axe both of the costly coalition's expensive and ineffective carbon taxes, and put thousands of dollars back in Canadians' pockets. Conservatives will bring costs and timelines down and project approvals up to advance and export environmentally responsible Canadian resources and technology to help lower global emissions.

I remember the first time Dr Gino Fallone presented his idea to the PAC Cancer. So spectacular to see it at this stage of providing treatment.

At the Cross Cancer Institute, clinical trials will begin to treat Alberta’s first patients with a made-in-Alberta Linac-MR, thanks to Dr. Gino Fallone and his team from AHS and the University of Alberta.

Collaborating with @YourAlberta and @SKGov led to updates to the Lloydminster Charter, allowing us to provide modern, seamless legislation in Lloydminster.
Adopted by both provinces, the Charter allows us to address the unique challenges of being bi-provincial.

What rhymes with fool and is largely responsible for the youth vaping epidemic according to Time Magazine and others? Settlements won’t reverse the harm to this generation of addicted youth. #tobaccocontrol #youthvaping
