The 31st legislative session has come to a close, and I’m eager to dedicate more time to our constituency this summer. Please join me for the first Annual Stampede BBQ on Saturday, July 6, from 11:00 am to 2:00 pm at the Bonavista Downs community hall. It promises to be a delightful, family-friendly affair, welcoming both furry friends and our esteemed Premier Smith along with other Ministers and MLAs for a potential visit. Enjoy fantastic fare from Spolumbos, lively music, and the opportunity to connect with various community associations showcasing their initiatives. I extend a warm invitation to all constituents of Calgary-Fish Creek to attend!
Alberta Releases Drought Response Plan
I am pleased to share that the Alberta’s new 2024 Drought Response Plan has been released and will help guide the province through any and all drought conditions. This is a plan covering everything from conservation plans and water-sharing agreements to declaring an emergency and prioritizing water for human health and safety. It will help make sure that Albertans, communities, farmers, ranchers, and businesses get the support they need, whatever the weather.
Drought conditions can change rapidly and impact different areas in very different ways. The Drought Response Plan outlines:
• The five stages of Alberta’s drought response.
• The roles and responsibilities of partners, including government, to help everyone collaborate and communicate.
• The regulatory and non-regulatory approaches and tools that may be used in various drought conditions.
• How and when emergencies would be declared, with recognition that declaring an emergency is used as a last resort.

Looking forward to seeing you all at my Stampede BBQ!
