It was wonderful to celebrate Eid in both Calgary and Edmonton this past week. It was a privilege to connect with so many people, share in the spirit of generosity and reflection, and recognize the contributions of Muslim communities across Alberta.

Eid Mubarak!

Today in the legislature, I introduced Bill 18: The Safeguards for Last Resort Termination of Life Act.

This legislation is about strengthening safeguards and ensuring vulnerable Albertans are protected when they need care most. It is crucial that MAiD remains a last resort, not a first response.

We need a system that prioritizes dignity, support, and real options. Bill 18 is about making sure Albertans have real options and are met with compassion and protection, not steered toward a choice that should only ever be made in the most exceptional circumstances.

Hope should be easier to access then death.
