We were proud to join @calgaryhomeless last night for their inaugural “Sidewalks to Door Locks” event. As the artist sponsor, we had the honor of introducing Daniel Pelton. We left feeling inspired by the impactful work they are doing to care for our community.

With a heavy heart, we honour the bravery and dedication of wildfire responders. We send our condolences to all affected by the tragedy. Please remember to use #FireSafety this summer.
We are sad to confirm that one of our contract helicopters crashed yesterday evening while fighting wildfire EWF-075 in the Evansburg area. Our hearts go out to the loved ones of everyone involved. Alberta Wildfire is working with the RCMP and the TSB to investigate the cause.

Canada’s oil and gas industry is laser focused on environmental protection, sustainability and climate action. We should celebrate our record. 🎉 #CanadianEnergy #TeamCanada

Thanks to Living Waters Catholic Schools for inviting @MartinLongUCP, @Maryann_Chichak and I to join them at the future site of École St Anne School in Whitecourt. This school will certainly be a wonderful place for students to learn and grow in their faith. #ableg

More importantly, if we want to encourage great people to run for office we should all speak out against any actions targeting the personal residences of elected officials and their families. Frustration is valid, but bullying and invading privacy at people’s homes is not on. – at Ottawa, Ontario
Why are people protesting outside the Mayor of Toronto @JohnTory’s home? Evictions have nothing to do with the city. It’s a provincial responsibility. #topoli #onpoli

We applaud @YourAlberta’s Recovery Plan that will create #jobs and opportunity for investment in AB. Our forest industry currently employs over 40,000 Albertans & supports over 70 communities across the province. We look forward to growing AB’s economy with #ForestsForTheFuture.
Alberta has a hard earned reputation for high-quality agriculture and forestry products and has the entrepreneurial ability to meet global demand. #ABrecovery #ableg You can read it here: alberta.ca/recovery-plan.asp…
