Let's start a real-life dialogue with each other.

Every Albertan wants their kids to have the freedom to learn, to be themselves, and to grow up healthy and safe in Alberta. But recent policy changes in Alberta are negatively affecting all youth and causing polarization online.

Let's start a real-life dialogue with each other.

Every Albertan wants their kids to have the freedom to learn, to be themselves, and to grow up healthy and safe in Alberta. But recent policy changes in Alberta are negatively affecting all youth and causing polarization online.

That’s why we need to get offline and talk. Real conversations in real life — but it only works if people like you join us.

About Our Campaign

Why do real-life conversations matter?

Research shows that even one 15-minute conversation in real life helps people find common ground with each other — even if they start with very different views.

As Albertans, we believe in protecting our communities from online misinformation that is meant to divide us. Let’s talk about it.

Let’s get a real conversation going

When we’re free to make our own healthcare and education decisions, we set our kids up for brighter futures and build stronger connections within our communities. Online division and distraction push us further apart.

But ordinary Albertans are pushing back — by getting offline and talking to their family, friends and neighbours. Share this message and join them.
