Alberta as we know it today simply would not exist without the millions of immigrants and refugees who built it, who loved it, and who were proud to call it home - including my grandparents and my mum. This bitter xenophobia is as unAlbertan as itโ€™s possible to be. Iโ€™m ashamed. Iโ€™m disgusted.
