NATHAN NEUDORF
UCP MLA for Lethbridge East
On May 29th, the people of Lethbridge and all Albertans were presented with a choice between two different visions for our province.Â
After a long month of campaigning, Albertans re-elected the UCP to another majority government, while here in Lethbridge the two seats remain split between the UCP and my colleague representing the NDP in opposition, Shannon Phillips.
Your trust in me as a leader in our community is a responsibility I do not take lightly.
 I committed to listening to your concerns, fighting for your values in the legislature, and working to make Lethbridge the best city in our province.
Improving our community is not a one-person job, it takes all of us working together to find solutions.
Just over a month ago, on June 9th, I was once again sworn into Premier Danielle Smith’s cabinet- this time as Minister of Affordability and Utilities. I am incredibly honoured to receive this assignment and to continue the work underway to fight inflation and keep Alberta affordable.Â
Over the course of the campaign, I heard loud and clear that affordability, including the affordability of powering and heating your homes, continues to be a top of mind issue for many in our city and province. I know we have a large task ahead of us, as we work to provide both short term relief from inflationary pressures and as we endeavour to ensure Albertans can access affordable power and heat for generations to come.Â
We live in the best province in Canada and while we have pressing issues to address, bringing a positive attitude and a strong work ethic we can continue to grow and get better. I hope we can tackle these items together and find solutions that keep moving Alberta forward.
I want to thank the people of Lethbridge-East for once again bestowing me with the honour of representing you in the legislature. As our city’s voice in government and at the cabinet table, I want everyone in Lethbridge to know that I am carrying your concerns forward and will work hard to move Lethbridge forward over the next four years.
