The circle of NDP imports moving into senior provincial government positions in Alberta continues to expand with the appointment of Marcella Munro to run communications and stakeholder outreach in Premier Rachel Notley’s Calgary office.
Munro moved to Calgary from Vancouver. She is a former CBC reporter, B.C. NDP activist and former Earnscliffe Strategy Group lobbyist who openly opposed Enbridge Inc.’s proposed Northern Gateway pipeline. “Those of us who oppose it need to keep pushing,” she tweeted in 2013.
“Marcella works for the Premier and so we are confident she takes direction from Ms. Notley’s office and fully supports the priorities of the government,” Cheryl Oates, Notley’s press secretary, said in an emailed statement.
