Our 4 priorities

Brian Mason and Alberta’s NDP put the needs of regular Albertans first, with real solutions to make life more affordable for everyday people.

Where we stand

Affordability for Families

The Conservatives have offloaded the cost of public services onto the backs of regular people. Alberta’s NDP is on the side of ordinary Albertans, demanding an end to health care premiums, reasonable tuition for students, and safe, affordable care for seniors. We’re calling for rent controls and limits on condominium conversions, to keep housing affordable and available.

Full-value royalties

The Liberals’ and Conservatives’ royalty plans benefit big international oil companies, but they sell Albertans short by billions of dollars a year. Alberta’s NDP will follow the example set by Alaska and replace our bargain basement royalty system with a plan that benefits regular people, and delivers a full share for the resources they own.

Getting big $$ out of politics

Political donations from big oil and other large corporations have a corrosive effect on democracy. Liberals and Conservatives, the primary recipients of those donations, put the needs of these donors ahead of the needs of ordinary families. Alberta’s NDP would put an end to political donations from unions and corporations.

Green energy plan

Securing a prosperous future means looking beyond fossil fuels. Alberta’s NDP has an ambitious plan to make Alberta a global leader in green energy. We would use increased royalty revenue to develop solar, wind, and geothermal alternatives in Alberta and invest in green energy research and economic development for the future.
