Ron Liepert – Calgary Signal Hill Constituency Outreach and Communications #2216 8561 8 A Ave SW Calgary, Alberta 403 292-6666 Message from Member of Parliament, Ron Liepert Albertans can get ready for a dose of election campaigning in 2019. Provincially we go to the polls at some point in the spring between March 1 and May 31, 2019. Alberta does not have a fixed election date but rather a fixed election period. The Premier will determine the exact date. This election will be an opportunity to pass judgement on Premier Notley’s four year NDP government. It will also be the first election in more than a decade where the two Conservative parties will be running one candidate under the United Conservative banner. In the past three elections candidates sought office running as Progressive Conservatives or Wildrose. This will also be the first real test for the Alberta Party as an alternative to either the UCP or NDP. This campaign will officially last for four weeks but realistically will be underway when elected officials return from the winter break. Canadians are scheduled to go to the polls on October 21, 2019 however, the Prime Minister could dissolve Parliament early and call an election at his choosing. Early in this new year several by-Elections will take place including Burnaby, B.C. where NDP leader Jagmeet Singh will be seeking election to the house. Regardless whether the Prime Minister sticks to the fixed date or calls a spring election, Finance Minister Morneau will present a budget early in the new year. This is the budget the Prime Minister promised would be balanced during the 2015 election campaign. It is unlikely the Finance Minister will be able to meet this promise since his fall economic update predicts a deficit that is increasing rather than shrinking. The federal budget situation is also likely to see revenue reductions in 2019 due to the energy crisis currently being experienced in Alberta’s energy sector. Albertans will have plenty of opportunities to get politically engaged in 2019. The Free Food in Alberta Locations vary. Email or phone for locations and times.

  • University of Lethbridge Alumnus Manwar Khan to Hold Anti-‐Bullying
    For Immediate Release — Wednesday, August 12, 2015 University of Lethbridge alumnus Manwar Khan to hold Anti-Bullying Rally for victims of bullying and violence What: Do Not Be a Bystander Anti-Bullying Rally When: Saturday, August 15, 11:30 a.m. Where: Calgary City Hall – Municipal Plaza space Edmonton-based activist and University of Lethbridge alumnus Manwar Khan (BSc ’07), a father of twins, is holding a rally in Calgary at the Calgary City Hall as he continues to campaign across the province against bullying and violence. “We will be gathering in front of City Hall to show our support for every known and unknown victim of bullying and violence in Alberta,” says Khan, who witnessed a violent attack on an Edmonton LRT train in December 2012. It led to the death of one man and the incarceration of another. Khan invites everyone to gather at City Hall at 11:30 a.m. to rally in support of those who have been affected by violence and bullying. He is also asking people who are not able to attend the rally to leave their porch lights on from 6 to 7 p.m. on August 15, 2015 to show their support for the stand against violence and bullying. Khan established a series of anti-bullying rallies in 2013 and 2014, holding events in Edmonton, Calgary, Lethbridge and Airdrie. He has vowed to continue to represent victims of bullying and to try and stem the onset of violence so that it does not persist in society. “I believe firmly that it is a matter of great importance to teach our children that bullying is simply not acceptable in our society if we are to achieve safety and happiness for all,” he says.

  • 2018 Election Report Card: Will the Trudeau Government Deliver on Its Raised Expectations?
    2018 ELECTION REPORT CARD: WILL THE TRUDEAU GOVERNMENT DELIVER ON ITS RAISED EXPECTATIONS? By Shane Mackenzie & Jesse Robichaud Three years on from 2015 – campaign strategists are turning their attention to the 2019 federal election. For Prime Minister Trudeau’s incumbent Liberals, the strategic path to re-election will look different than the party’s vault from third place to a resounding pan-Canadian victory last time. The Way Things Were The promise of hope and renewed confidence in government was palpable when voters turned out en masse to elect MPs from Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party. The mere idea that “better is always possible!” gained traction with an electorate whose expectations had been steadily managed downward by the Harper government’s “no nonsense” decade at the helm. A previously struggling Liberal voter base came to life when the party’s candidates and their leader framed their platform of “real change” promises as a return to openness, evidence-based policy, climate action, large-scale investment, reconciliation, equality, support for families, and diversity. The Way Things Are No good deed goes unpunished, and for Trudeau there will undoubtedly be a political price to pay for raising the bar for what voters should expect from their government. Indeed, the success standard set for Trudeau is higher than in some past elections. And he set it himself. Once the bar has been raised, it’s impossible to lower it again – and it’s also harder to clear it consistently, as we have seen with issues like electoral reform, climate policy, pipelines, and relations with provincial governments.

  • December 17, 2018
    AB Today – Daily Report December 17, 2018 Quotation of the day “Alberta set its cap and that’s part of our made-in-Canada climate plan, and that’s really important that Alberta follows through on that.” Federal Environment Minister Catherine McKenna told reporters Canada is relying on Alberta ​ ​ ​ ​ to stick with its greenhouse gas emissions targets during a call from Katowice, Poland during UN climate talks. Today in AB On the schedule The House is now on winter break until February. The government has not committed to holding a spring legislative session or to tabling a budget before next year’s election, which must be held on or before May 31, 2019. Yellow vests, counter-protestors clash at weekend rallies over immigration and carbon tax Co-opting symbolism from fuel tax protests in France, for the second weekend in a row angry Albertans dressed in yellow safety vests to protest the carbon tax, the federal government’s Bill ​ C-69 and the United Nations global migration compact. ​ ​ ​ Protests were held at the Alberta Legislature, Edmonton City Hall and in Calgary. Outside the Alberta Legislature, counter-protestors denounced anti-immigrant rhetoric and at one point, arrests were made after punches were thrown between the two groups. At least one ​ journalist was pushed and told “we don’t need witnesses” while trying to record footage of the ​ altercation. The “Wolves of Odin,” the recently renamed Edmonton chapter of the anti-immigrant group ​ ​ Soldiers of Odin, were in attendance at the rally. Some demonstrators cited economic concerns, oilpatch woes and provincial and federal climate policies as their reason for joining the yellow vests, while others were openly anti-immigrant.
