“Dr. Karen Aberle was instrumental in my work when I was Director of Sexual And Gender Acceptance Wetaskiwin. She offered our group an LGBTQIA2S+ Safe Space and a place for the youth to meet and have events and was always most welcoming of our group! Dr.Aberle also works with and has built positive relationships with most non profits and other organizations in Wetaskiwin and area and is forever supporting our community through her work as Director of the Wetaskiwin and District Heritage Museum Centre and in her role on the Wetaskiwin Legion Executive. Karen works tirelessly in all her endeavours and I strongly support her as she runs for Wetaskiwin City Council. For all these reasons and more Dr. Karen Aberle has my vote on October 18!”
