As the season changes and we gather in the warmth of loved ones and friendship, we hope for the day when we can all celebrate not everything we have, but that everyone has enough.

Thanksgiving is a time for family, good food & one more day of early voting. So I figured this is a good time to showcase one of my favourite meals to cook when the fam gets together. Punjabi Poutine! It's like Punjabi & Quebec styles merging 🤯 Happy Thanksgiving!


I found out Superman's secret identity this afternoon. His name is William and it turns out that he votes #NDP #elxn43 #InItForYou #yeg

You don't have to settle for less this election – when you elect New Democrats, this is what you get. And with advance polls open, you don't have to wait to vote for what you believe in! Here's where you can vote today: ➡️ ndp.ca/my-vote-plan

What we're seeing tonight is Mr. Trudeau and Mr. Scheer arguing over what is worse for Canada. I believe we need to be fighting for what will be best for Canada. We need to demand more – not be scared into settling for less. #CanadaDebates2019 #elxn43

Would you leave your home if home was hateful, or harmful, or not safe for your kids? What if home was no longer there? Refugees are people, forced to leave their home, to make a new one. #refugeeswelcome

Justin Trudeau did everything he could to keep SNC-Lavalin out of court – but he spent nearly a million dollars fighting Indigenous kids. What kind of leader chooses to fight kids in court instead of help them? #CanadaDebates2019

Last night, Jagmeet stood up for everyday people and showed how he'll make life better for families – and the response has been incredible. Here's what they're saying about Jagmeet's performance at last night's debate. ▶️⤵️ #elxn43 #InItForYou #CanadaDebates2019


Last night's #SistersInSpirit vigil was deeply emotional for for me as the issue of missing and murdered indigenous women and girls has directly touched our family. We must never forget those who didn't come home & we must fight to make a better life for those who are still here.

When people are hurting and they come to you asking for help, they deserve to be treated with some basic respect. I'm very disappointed that our Prime Minister doesn't seem to understand that. #elxn43 #InItForYou #NDP #yeg

People in Grassy Narrows are hurting from the effects of generations of mercury poisoning in their water. When Justin Trudeau was confronted about his inaction at a fundraiser, this is how he responded: #elxn43

We need to take a minute and seriously ask ourselves, why is it even a question whether Indigenous communities deserve clean drinking water or not? It's a matter of priorities, and if I was Prime Minister, I'd get it done. #elxn43


Yesterday, my campaign workers and I visited the @Masjidquba mosque where we had some really great conversations with members of our city's Muslim community. I really love being a candidate for a riding with so much diversity. #elxn43 #InItForYou #NDP #yeg

There's no excuse I can accept, none whatsoever, that justifies the Trudeau Liberal Government taking First Nations children back to court. This isn't reconciliation. This isn't being on the side of kids. We need to hear Mr. Trudeau say he'll drop this appeal. #elxn43

BREAKING: Ottawa is challenging the Canadian Human Rights Tribunal decision ordering the federal government compensate First Nations children impacted by the on-reserve child welfare system @CBCPolitics @CBCAlerts Story to come. #elxn43 #cdnpoli



I've always been passionate about building a better future for young people so I find that talking with students is one of the best part of being a candidate. Thanks to Amy and her class at Norquest College for such a warm reception this morning! #exln43 #InItForYou #NDP #yeg

#DidYouKnow Justin Trudeau is letting Doug Ford cut services for people? We need leaders who will fight Conservative cuts all the time – not just talk about it at election time. Learn more: ⬇️#elxn43

Today I asked city council to support free transit on October 21, #elxn43 Election Day. We vote on this motion next Tuesday. Let’s remove the barriers that many Edmonontians face, and get people to the polls. #yegcc #yeg


Yesterday was another busy day on the campaign trail, including participating in an all-candidates' debate for seniors @ Rosedale and dropping by the U of A NDP Pints and Politics event to meet students and chat with fellow candidates like @HeatherMNow! #InItForYou #elxn43

One of the best parts of being a candidate is meeting with seniors & learning from their wisdom and life experience. Today, I visited both Canterbury Court and Dnipro. Thanks to the organizers and the seniors who attended. #elxn43 #NDP #InItForYou #yeg
