Not sure who to vote for for Public School Board Trustee in Edm? Consider @SaadiqSumar he has a good track record & will fight for whatβs best for our kids in public education.

Thanks for your support Melanie!
Please fellow Edmontonians, get out and vote. Each vote is critical. Iβm standing behind: Mayor = @AndrewKnack Councillor = @ Keren Teng Ed Public School Trustee = @SaadiqSumar Advance polls open this weekend. Make your voice heard. Vote independent, not a party! Please

The UCP will try to blame Ottawa for this, but don't be fooled, THIS is an example of the real problems they don't want you to see - so they distract by creating problems that don't exist and attack trans people to solve those problems.

The Alberta UCP government is forcing women and the parents of girls to sign a document that describes what genitals they have and what they were born with. To "protect" women and girls. Sit with that for a bit.

My son starts kindergarten next year so I wanted to see how his future school would benefit from funding that matched the national average. We must do better for our kids. Want to know how your child's school would benefit? Try the calculator: https://t.co/d39nFqRhKl

If you truly cared about fairness in sport, you don't ban trans girls, you ensure women and girls have access to the same resources, coaches money, etc that privileges men's and boys' sports. You ensure people with disabilities can play. You ensure not only rich kids can play.

Just like the "This isn't a gender affirming / patient care banning announcement this is a safety announcement" ... that you have to qualify what it isn't at the get go suggest that's exactly what it is.
This isn't a book-banning announcement. It's a children's safety announcement. Age-appropriate content matters, and young children don't need access to sexually explicit images. https://t.co/LCMWAz8ybe

Thank you so much to the @EPSANetwork for inviting me to your meeting tonight! This bulletin in the foyer was a perfect metaphor. Society is full of people from all walks of life, and it takes us all to make public education work. Thanks for the chance to meet your community π

I met @aasingleton17 at the @PIAlberta conference earlier this year. We have many things in common: weβre both community builders, advocates, and (perhaps most importantly) dads. Iβm grateful to have his support in this nomination race! #abndp #abpoli #yeg #ableg

Congratulations to Prime Minister Mark Carney on his victory, and to all the newly elected MPs across Canada. Itβs now time to set aside the divisive battles and come together to serve Canada in a time when the nation is under existential threat. For Alberta, this means working

Saadiq has walked the walk and consistently shown up for marginalized students as a school board trustee. Edmonton-Ellerslie would gain a community-embedded advocate and qualified representative in the Legislature.
I'm excited to announce that I'm seeking the #abndp nomination for Ellerslie. Our community deserves experienced representation to fight for increased funding for schools, hospitals, and infrastructure in one of the fastest-growing ridings in our province. #yeg #ableg #abpoli

I am excited to see @SaadiqSumar put his name forward in my riding! He's a bright young man that cares deeply about the families in our province, and I know he will carry his good work with EPSB into the Legislature. I am excited to vote for him in Edmonton-Ellerslie on May 14!
