Innisfail town councillor named NDP candidate in Innisfail-Sylvan Lake
The Alberta NDP has named its candidate for Innisfail-Sylvan Lake ahead of the provincial election this spring.
Innisfail Town Councillor Jason Heistad will represent the party in taking on UCP incumbent Devin Dreeshen.
Heistad is a four-term councillor, and also serves as Executive Secretary-Treasurer of the Alberta Union of Provincial Employees (AUPE).
“The people who live in Innisfail-Sylvan Lake have been clear they are looking for a representative who will listen to their concerns, and they aren’t finding that with the UCP,” said Heistad. “I am ready to get to work for the people who live here, and make sure their voices are represented in the legislature.”
