Ms Gray: Albertans deserve a comprehensive paid sick leave program. Alberta’s NDP drafted legislation to bring paid sick leave here, not just a briefing note, a full bill. Will the minister commit to working with me to bring this bill into the House for debate? No more stalling. Albertans need paid sick leave.
Mr. Shandro: Mr. Speaker, after a pandemic and after 20, 21 months of this, we’ve had a lot of job creators throughout the province that have been hit very hard. We’ll continue to work with our job creators, especially through many of the different programs, through the Minister of Jobs, Economy and Innovation as well as the jobs now program, so we can continue to support those job creators, making sure that they continue to add new jobs to their businesses and continue to find new opportunities for their neighbours to find employment in this province.
