Buckle up! I’m headed to Calgary this morning. It’s not my first rodeo, but it’s my first time going to Stampede “professionally” - in my persona as a Senator and the deputy chair of the Senate agriculture committee. I will report on my cowboy cosplay misadventures, as an “all hat, no cattle” kind of girl. #Calgary #CalgaryStampede #yyc #Alberta #Canada #AGFO #Stampede

I am so very proud to share Critical Ground, our Senate study of soil health in Canada, which was released this Thursday morning. If you care about the food you eat. If you care about climate change. If you care about environmental and physical health. If you care about Canada's future. This report should be essential reading. https://sencanada.ca/en/info-page/parl-44-1/agfo-critical-ground #AGFO #SenateofCanada #Canada #cdnpoli #SoilHealth #SoilHealthMatters #soil #SoilBiology #agriculture #ClimateChange #FAO

Thursday morning, our Senate Agriculture and Forestry Committee will release our major report on soil health and preservation. It’s called Critical Ground, and I hope it will be a call to action on many fronts. To whet your appetite - my preview column, written for Alberta Views. https://albertaviews.ca/the-real-dirt-land/ #SenateofCanada #cdnpoli #AGFO #Alberta #abpoli #Canada

On Thursday April 18, I had the chance to follow up on this question, during a meeting of the Standing Senate Committee on Agriculture and Forestry, as we held hearings as part of our new study on wildfires in Canada.

Here is a little video, featuring the Edmonton Downtown Farmers Market in better days. My weekly Saturday visits there were the highlight of my weekends. I hear that some vendors may try again on 104th Street. But I will miss the fabulous old GWG Building. https://youtu.be/w__525-fB7M?si=adMyNOoK5-yCUOxv #Edmonton #yeg #farmers #farmersmarket #yegdt #AGFO

Sad and frustrated indeed to be saying goodbye to the wonderful Edmonton Downtown Farmers Market, in its beautiful sunny home in the heritage GWG Building on 97th Street. The market never fully recovered from the shock of Covid and the hollowing out of the downtown. That, combined with high utility costs. It’s a blow to farmers, vendors, foodies and the whole east downtown/Chinatown/Quarters area. #Edmonton #yeg #yegdt #AGFO
