Want to get involved in politics? Make a change? Live in Edmonton Griesbach?
The new conservative candidate, new blood in the system. A family man and businessman who helped rejuvenate the Transit Hotel with a hosted restaurant can use some volunteers to help door knock and help the candidate get the word out!
If you know anyone in that Edmonton voting district please PM me for contact details.

Did you see Trudeau embracing the Sihk crowd at his Calgary press conference today ? Looked like blatant campaigning to this cowboy.
