“I’m running because I love Alberta. This is my home and I feel passionately that the people of this province are not being treated fairly by Ottawa. We need to push back, regain our pride, and have autonomy over our decisions. Together, let’s put Alberta First and as Premier, that is exactly what I will do.” Danielle is a proud Albertan. She is a University of Calgary graduate with degrees in Economics and English, Danielle has had a lifelong interest in Alberta public policy and finding the right balance between free enterprise and individual freedom, and the role of government. She was a Member of the Legislative Assembly for Highwood, leader of the Official Opposition, and leader of the Wildrose Party. Before re-entering politics, Danielle had extensive experience in the media and in business. Most recently she was President of the Alberta Enterprise Group. Before that she was a radio host with Corus Entertainment for six years. She married her husband, David in 2006 and together they own and operate The Dining Car, a fully renovated 1940s railcar dining car. She is the proud stepmother of David’s son Jonathan. Danielle and David live in High River with their two dogs, Caine and Colt.

Episode 132 Rebecca Schulz
Today I am so honored and privileged to be joined back by Rebecca Schulz, one of the 2022 UCP Leadership Candidates. Today Rebecca and I discuss her incredible career, along with some of her policy, and the campaign. You can stay up to date with Rebecca on the campaign trail here https://www.rebeccaforleader.ca/

Rebecca Schulz is the MLA for Calgary-Shaw. She was elected in 2019 and was most recently the Minister of Children's Services. In that role, Rebecca fought for and successfully negotiated a fair deal on childcare with the federal government. The Made-In-Alberta childcare agreement is unique in Canada and critical for seeing Alberta families and children succeed. Rebecca has also served on Treasury Board and several policy and legislative committees. She first got involved in politics in 2009 working in the Premier’s Office in Saskatchewan under Brad Wall. Rebecca then chose Alberta to raise her family and was drawn to the united conservative movement. She believes unity in the conservative movement is critical – both at the provincial and federal level – to ensure free-market, pro-growth governments can succeed. Rebecca is an active campaigner and believes that hard work and staying connected with voters – most importantly, door knocking – is the best way to both grow the movement and serve at the ground level. She lives in Calgary with her husband and two children.

Roman Baber served as Member of Provincial Parliament from the riding of York Centre from June 2018 to June 2022. He served as Chair of Parliament’s Standing Committee on Justice Policy from September 2019 until February 2021.
He was removed by Doug Ford from the Ontario government caucus after calling out the collateral harm of lockdowns in January 2021. Since then, Roman has been a staunch advocate in favour of a balanced covid response and in particular against passports, mandates and lockdowns due to their toll on the health and mental health of Canadians.
Roman brought legislation to cut MPP pay to CERB levels while Emergency Orders are in place, was in litigation against the Attorney General of Ontario to defend Canadians' right to protest and worship outdoors and brought a Bill to outlaw workplace mandates. Roman is passionate about and is well familiar with justice, transit and autism policy.
Roman was born and lived in the former Soviet Union until he was almost 9. He then lived in Israel until he immigrated to Canada with his family at age 15.
Roman obtained a BA from York University and graduated from law school at the University of Western Ontario. During his last year of law school, Roman was a supervisor at the school’s legal aid funded clinic. He was called to the Ontario Bar in 2006 and practiced civil and commercial litigation until his election in 2018.
Roman is also an occasional lecturer at an after-school program, engaging high school students on constitutional and criminal law topics. He loves tennis, Canadian kindness, the Toronto Raptors and his special someone, Nancy Marchese.
