Dear Constituents,
As we enter the Holiday/Christmas season, I want to wish you the best no matter what holidays you celebrate. It’s been a tough year for everyone so Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, Happy Holidays, may your family have a safe, healthy and happy celebration.
Ottawa has been a busy place this past month. Conservatives continue to press the investigation on the WE Charity scandal forward. We are also pressing the Trudeau government on its COVID-19 response. They have dropped the ball on rapid testing, and particularly on acquiring potential vaccines for Canadians.
Unfortunately, Canada will be far behind other countries in rolling out the vaccine to citizens. We have been asking for a plan from Justin Trudeau on how to accelerate getting vaccine to Canadians but the government refuses to answer our questions. It has been reported that one third of the planet will see vaccines before Canadians.
That’s the sad reality of how seriously Justin Trudeau approaches the health of Canadians. He’s asking you to trust him but he will not answer the most basic of questions that we have for his government. He is willing to spend your hard-earned dollars with no plan, remember just a few months ago, he wanted a blank cheque until Conservatives said No.
Even in the Liberal’s Economic Statement, this week, the government talked about their plan but still didn’t produce one. The Finance Minister is forecasting their annual deficit as being close to $400 Million with Canada’s total debt going over $1 Trillion. Meanwhile, they are using the cover of COVID to start planning to artificially ‘reset’ our economy. For Albertans desperate to see a revitalization of our resource sector, this is bad news. The Liberals are already standing in the way of our economic growth, now they’re going to put up even more roadblocks to our success.
On a happier note, I am hosting a Christmas toy drive in my office with all proceeds going to the Alberta Children’s Hospital. Please drop off any toys at my office (#225, 5252 – 28 St SE) or email me if you would like someone to pick up.
In your service,
