"The legislation needs to be stopped," says Dave Lamouche, the president of the Metis Settlements of Alberta General Council. The @MSGC_Alberta feel the Metis Government Recognition and Self-government Agreement is "flawed" and an overreach by Metis Nation Alberta.

During the Committee on Indigenous and Northern Affairs, we heard from @MSGC_Alberta Pres. @LehrHerb & Buffalo Lake Chair Stan Delorme on housing shortages on Métis settlements.
I grew up on Fishing Lake Métis settlement. I know the challenges they're facing firsthand. #cdnpoli

I’m deeply honoured by the confidence that the voters of Edmonton Griesbach have shown in me and in the NDP.
And a huge thank you to my incredible campaign team. Together, we offered the people of Edmonton Griesbach a very clear, positive, hopeful choice — a choice for better. – at Edmonton, Alberta

Great convo on @ryanjespersen. We are only scratching the surface on Indigenous youth Justice. We must immediately put in place medium & long term solutions for youth transitioning (aging out) of government care. We must end the cycle of violence & give our youth a real chance. – at Edmonton, Alberta

Kinanâskomitin @ryanjespersen for hosting the great convo on Indigenous youth ‘houselessness’. As an Indigenous young person & intergenerational survivor of the #60sscoop I know first hand the affects of poverty & how we must do more then just place folks in temporary solutions. – at Edmonton, Alberta
