Earlier this year, I launched an official parliamentary petition calling on the government to fix the unfairness in the equalization formula as it relates to Alberta and our energy sector. I would like to thank all those in our community who have made their voices heard. If you would still like to read and sign the petition you can do so by visiting my website at www.MichelleRempel.ca/petition.
Thank you to the hundreds of individuals who came out to last month’s Town Hall. I appreciate the opportunity to hear about the issues that matter most to you. As it relates to community infrastructure, I have received wonderful feedback from the survey I sent out, as well as feedback from community associations and stakeholders, about the needs of our community. To view the results of the survey and to provide further feedback please visit: www.MichelleRempel.ca/our_community
As 2018 comes to a close, I remain concerned about jobs, the economy and support for seniors and vulnerable members of our community. There are many in our midst who are still unemployed and underemployed or who are struggling to get by. I will continue to fight for policies in Ottawa that will create jobs, lower taxes and provide assistance to those who need it most.
My hope is that during the holiday season that you have an opportunity to reflect on the blessings we have in Canada and our community. I wish you a very merry Christmas and a happy holiday season.
