Re-elect Teresa Woo-Paw, MLA candidate for Calgay-Northern Hills

In 2008, I promised to enhance access to education, promote health and safety, protect rights of the individual, proactively support entrepreneurship, and strengthen and build infrastructure. Together, we have achieved many of these goals, but we have more to do.

My personal knowledge and commitment to north Calgary is central to everything I do because my family and I have lived and worked here for 30 years. As your elected representative for Calgary-Northern Hills, I will continue to enhance our community by working with local stakeholders, organizations, agencies, and businesses.

Since 2008, I have resolved hundreds of personal and local concerns, addressed community demands by holding five community consultations with ministries, brought services into our community, and established our annual Stampede Breakfast with Cardel Place.

In the next four years, I will continue working within our means to strengthen and expand our growing community's infrastructures. I will continue listening to thousands of community members at Coffee with the MLA and at dozens of community events. I will continue supporting our community's innovative ideas to protect our health, employment, education, environment, safety and rights. I commit to invest further in people, young and old, ensuring all Albertans can enjoy the benefits of our hard work and prosperity in the global economy both now and in the future.

I ask you to support me with your vote so we can continue collaborating to make our community of Calgary-Northern Hills a better place to live in ways that matter most.

Please vote in Alberta's 28th general election on Monday, April 23, 2012.
