As the first day of the Alberta provincial election kicked off, New Democrat Party leader Rachel Notley was on the campaign trail in Calgary, promising to protect Albertans’ pensions and end the health care crisis.

At a news conference on May 1, Notley said if elected on May 29, her party would “bring doctors back to Alberta” and “reduce the number of people waiting in pain.”
