Help me beat the NDP in Edmonton Griesbach

Nobody wants to see the NDP defeated in the federal riding of Edmonton Griesbach more than me.

And nobody else has as much experience, know how, support and work ethic to make sure this riding turns Tory blue once again.

I first won the riding in 2015 beating popular NDP candidate Janis Irwin. I was re-elected in 2019 by more than 12,000 votes over the NDP. In 2021 our team lost to the NDP by a mere 1,500 votes.

Justin Trudeau’s Liberal minority government is being propped up by getting support from Jagmeet Singh and the NDP. But with more and more scandals circulating around this government, an early federal election is very possible.

If I’m to be the Conservative candidate in Edmonton Griesbach I must ensure I’ve got the most Conservative Party of Canada members supporting me. Even though I was an MP before, there will be a nomination election to choose the Conservative candidate for the next federal election.

Will you support me in my quest by purchasing a $15 federal Conservative membership?

Please go to the link I’ve provided to buy one securely online right now:

https://donate.conservative.ca/en/membership/

Then please e-mail me at [email protected] to tell me you’ve bought a membership.

Thanks for your support. With Pierre Poilievre as leader, I’m confident we can win back Griesbach and form a competent, ethical Conservative majority government.

A new take on an old Christmas tune

In the spirit of giving, I decided to try a new take on the old jingle bells tune. I wanted to give the Liberals a figurative lump of coal for a few of the ways that they’ve been naughty this year.

The Liberal plan to reintegrate ISIS fighters puts the safety of Canadians at risk

An ISIS fighter should be prosecuted to the full extent of the law if they return to Canada, not offered taxpayer-funded reintegration training.

Liberals are rushing ahead to meet their arbitrary deadline to legalize marijuana

The Liberal government needs to stop and listen to the scientists, doctors, and law enforcement officials who are telling them that their plan to legalize marijuana is being rushed through without proper consideration of the negative impact of such complicated legislation.

The Liberals are rushing to legalize marijuana without a plan to protect youth

Justin Trudeau’s government is rushing to legalize the recreational use of marijuana without proper planning or consideration of the negative ramifications of their legislation.

It’s very concerning that it doesn’t keep marijuana out of the hands of children.

Finance Minister Bill Morneau is trying to change the channel on his ethics crisis

It’s time that Morneau stops trying to change the channel, apologizes to Canadians, and starts following the rules that apply to all Members of Parliament.

It’s Small Business Week!

And this week, Prime Minister Justin Trudeau is unveiling the details of his plan to hike taxes on local business.

Today in the House of Commons, I reminded the Liberal government that Canadian small businesses are the heartbeat of our economy, that they should be respected for the jobs and opportunities they create in our communities.

Edmonton’s small business community is outraged with the Liberals’ unfair tax changes

Small business owners at my roundtable on the unfair tax hike in Edmonton roundly blasted the proposed Trudeau/Morneau small biz tax changes.

Our participants (including two accountants) say if the Liberal plan is carried out it will have a wide-ranging negative impact on everything from family farms, to mom and pop businesses, to the ability for Canada to retain doctors.

All these people vow to continue opposing these changes and they’re encouraging everyone they know to call, write and e-mail federal Liberal members of Parliament demanding they stop this ill-advised damaging scheme.

Please do YOUR part by speaking out loudly. Conservatives will fight this tax hike every step of the way.

Together we can make the Grits stop this insane tax-grab scheme.

Thanks again to all the volunteers!

Appreciative of the feedback received from Veterans and Veteran’s advocates

Thank you to everyone who participated my round table discussion on Veterans issues with Conservative Veterans Affairs critic John Brassard.

Your feedback is invaluable.

Canada’s Veterans have selflessly served our country. It’s important that when they transition to civil life they have the resources they need, when they need it.
