Thank you, Edmonton-Ellerslie, for putting your trust in me. I’m grateful to everyone who welcomed me, shared their stories, and supported our campaign.

SE Edmonton sent a strong message to Danielle Smith and the UCP by demanding better.

I look forward to being your voice in the Legislature.

There is a vaccine. There is a plan that could work.

However, the UCP, or any one of their four health ministers, refuse to act.

Teachers are doing their best with less and less every year. It’s time they had a government that values their work and invests in the future of this province and the people who support their growth.

Alberta's New Democrats are proud to stand with teachers. #BetterisPossible

Naheed Nenshi @naheednenshi.bsky.social · Jun 20

Teachers don’t want to strike. They want to teach.

But the UCP has pushed them to the brink by refusing to invest in classrooms, ignoring basic needs, and treating bargaining like a political game.

Supporting public education means supporting the people who make it possible. #BetterisPossible

I’ve heard from so many residents in Ellerslie who are worried about rising costs, healthcare cuts, and the future of our province.

It's time to send Danielle Smith a message she cannot ignore.

Life’s just harder if you live in SE Edmonton.
The UCP made it that way.

They don’t care to fix it, but you can.

It was an honour to have Rachel Notley campaign with me in Edmonton-Ellerslie.

We talked to voters about what’s at stake—affordability, healthcare, and making sure this community finally gets the hospital it was promised.

Advance polls are open now! Get out and #VoteforBetter!

Rachel Notley and Gurtej Singh Brar want you to #VoteforBetter!

Whether a parent is trying to protect their child or a senior is trying to avoid hospitalization, we shouldn't have to pay to protect our health.

The UCP is not “cutting waste.”
They are making us pay for public healthcare.

Albertans deserve better.

The UCP’s plan for overcrowded ERs? “Just walk it off.” Like you are the burden.

You’ve told me about the wait for cancer care, joint surgeries, and doctors who’ve left.

We need more healthcare workers, treated with respect—and a new hospital in South Edmonton.

Gurtej Singh Brar #yeg @gurtejsinghbraryeg.bsky.social · Jun 12

The UCP cancelled the South Edmonton Hospital, but they want to blame YOU for the overcrowded emergency rooms.

Naresh Bhardwaj says Albertans should “just get some fresh air” instead of holding the government accountable. Edmonton-Ellerslie deserves better.

The UCP love to blame Albertans for the mess their own policies have created.

Let’s be clear - it’s the UCP who’ve made a mess of our healthcare system with constant interference, shady contracts to privatize services and increased bureaucracy. #abpoli
