WE HELP YOU BREATHE EASIER The Lung Association, Alberta & NWT (TLA) was first established as the Alberta Tuberculosis Association in 1939.

Recognized as one of Alberta’s oldest health charities, The Lung Association has expanded its initiatives over the years to include asthma education, treatment and research, and overall lung health awareness. Today, The Lung Association focuses its efforts and resources on all aspects of lung health including asthma, COPD, flu and infectious diseases, sleep apnea, environmental issues, tobacco control, and continued work in TB. Supported by its incredible board, staff team, and research and service sections, The Lung Association is about more than just a cause, it is about Albertans and their lung health.

Also, Trudeau will not likely allow anti-choice MPs to introduce their own bills/motions, or publicly advocate against abortion rights. Therefore, these MPs should not pose any threat, although they should be monitored. Likewise, Liberal MPs not on this 2014 pro-choice list may warrant monitoring to ensure they adhere to the party’s pro-choice policy.
