Saturday was spent door knocking in Woodlands with a quick time out to go and meet Jerome Iginla.

My husband and I braved a bit of rain and meet with the people of Woodlands in the morning. Most home owners we talked to were very happy with their life in St. Albert. I heard only one complaint about taxes, one about the river, and one about vandalism.

Transit and Riel Park are big issues this election. I was fortunate to have a discussion with a gentleman who is a city of St. Albert transit driver and also with a board member of our BMX club. I love the chance to meet and hear from so many different St. Albertans

At one o’clock the kids and I ran over to meet Jerome. With the sun finally coming out, it was a wonderful event arranged by the City of St. Albert. Hundreds of people lined up to meet him and have various Team Canada paraphernalia signed. Jerome spent a great deal of time talking to all the kids. What a wonderful ambassador to St. Albert!

It was back to Woodlands in the afternoon, but this time my 8 year old daughter joined me. We had so much fun talking and meeting people. One home owner expressed a need for more family oriented candidates so it was great to highlight the fact that yes – I do have small children and will represent those points of view if elected.
