In a few weeks time, our UCP Government will be introducing legislation to amend and strengthen the Alberta Bill of Rights, a document that has stood as a safeguard for our civil liberties and freedoms for decades. These changes are a reaffirmation of the values that make Alberta one of the freest jurisdictions on earth. They are about protecting our rights, our freedoms, and our way of life. We are sending a clear message that in Alberta, the rights of individuals are paramount, and that government must respect those rights at every turn. We’re excited to debate this bill when MLAs return for the fall sitting of the legislature in November.

🧵The Premier of Alberta recently shared an article in the Globe and Mail stating that opioid-related deaths had dropped “again," attributing this to the new Alberta recovery model showing “real results.” @pinglamjoeip and I pulled the provincial data to fact check this claim.
