On the Trending 55 Hot Seat, we check in weekly with a member of the provincial NDP.
This week, we are catching up with Edmonton-City Centre MLA, and Health Critic, David Shepherd.
Among the topics we cover include:
- his continued request for the government to have a public inquiry into the handling of the COVID-19 pandemic
- how he feels some of the deaths (1,128) from opioid-related overdoses
- the province’s handling of negotiations with its front line healthcare workers; and,
- he gives us an update on his cat, Monty, and talks about his newest bow tie, which he wore in the legislature for the first time yesterday.
