NDP Statement on Rachel Notley’s resignation announcement « Canada’s NDP

January 16, 2024 at 5:00 am  Federal, Politics

NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh made the following statement:

“Rachel Notley has been a formidable leader for the people of Alberta. It has been an honour to work with her over the years and to call her a friend.

Rachel has shown considerable strength and tenacity during her time as an MLA for Edmonton-Strathcona, as the leader of the Alberta NDP and as the former premier.

Today, as she takes this difficult decision, I hope Rachel has a chance to reflect on just how momentous her political career has been for our party and for the people she’s represented. Alberta New Democrats, under Rachel’s leadership, improved the lives of hardworking people in measurable ways.

She has been an inspiration to New Democrats across the country as she brought the party from four seats to a majority government. She fought hard for Alberta to have a government that reflects Albertans values and priorities. She made Albertans proud. She made New Democrats proud.

On behalf of all New Democrats, I want to thank Rachel for her many years of dedicated public service. It’s not always easy to work toward positive solutions, but Rachel has met every challenge with determination and courage.”
