First elected in the 2023 provincial election, he has focused his work on strengthening Alberta's economy, supporting families, improving public safety, and creating opportunities for Grande Prairie and northern Alberta.

Since being elected, Nolan has taken on several leadership roles within government. In March 2025, he was appointed Parliamentary Secretary for Indigenous and Rural Policing, where he works alongside Indigenous leaders, municipalities, police services, and provincial ministries to strengthen public safety and policing across Alberta's rural and Indigenous communities.

Nolan also serves as Chair of the Public Security Indigenous Advisory Committee (PSIAC), bringing Indigenous leaders and public safety partners together to provide advice and recommendations to government on Indigenous policing and community safety.

He currently serves as Chair of the Standing Committee on Resource Stewardship, leading committee work involving Alberta's energy sector, forestry, agriculture, transportation, Indigenous relations, and natural resources. Under his leadership, the committee completed the statutory review of Alberta's Public Interest Disclosure (Whistleblower Protection) Act, providing recommendations to strengthen protections for Albertans who report wrongdoing.

Throughout his time in the Legislature, Nolan has served in several Cabinet Policy Committee and legislative committee roles, including:

  • Parliamentary Secretary for Indigenous and Rural Policing

  • Chair, Standing Committee on Resource Stewardship

  • Chair, Public Security Indigenous Advisory Committee

  • Economic Diversification Cabinet Policy Committee

  • Legislative Review Cabinet Policy Committee

  • Standing Committee on Legislative Offices

Legislative Accomplishments

As a legislator, Nolan has successfully sponsored two Private Members' Bills and two Private Members' Motions that were adopted by the Legislative Assembly.

His first Private Member's Bill, Bill 203 – Foreign Credential Advisory Committee Act, established an advisory committee focused on improving Alberta's foreign credential recognition system and helping internationally trained professionals more efficiently put their skills and experience to work in Alberta while maintaining professional standards.

In 2024, Nolan introduced Private Members' Motion 510, which called on the Government of Alberta to recognize the importance of the family unit and affirm the rights of parents and guardians in the upbringing, development, education, health care, and well-being of their children. The motion was adopted by the Legislative Assembly.

Nolan later introduced Bill 207 – Primary Provincial Industries Statutes Amendment Act, recognizing the importance of Alberta's primary industries, including energy, agriculture, forestry, and construction. The legislation also strengthened opportunities for Alberta students to learn about these industries and the careers available within them.

In 2026, Nolan successfully introduced Private Members' Motion 513, focused on strengthening public safety and reinforcing the importance of effective policing, crime prevention, and safer communities across Alberta. The motion was adopted by the Legislative Assembly.

Community Accomplishments

Representing Grande Prairie has given Nolan the opportunity to advocate for projects and investments that will have a lasting impact on the community and northwestern Alberta.

A major focus has been improving access to health care in the North. Nolan advocated for the establishment of the Northern Alberta Medical Program at Northwestern Polytechnic, bringing medical education to Grande Prairie and creating an opportunity to train future physicians in the communities where they are needed. The first cohort began training in Grande Prairie in 2025.

He has also supported expanded health-care services closer to home, including the Sargent Family Kidney Care Centre, which brings additional dialysis and specialized kidney services together in Grande Prairie, and continued improvements to the Grande Prairie Regional Hospital.

Nolan worked with community leaders and partners to help secure $1 million in provincial funding for Ken Sargent House, a community-led project designed to provide a home away from home for patients and families who must travel to Grande Prairie for medical care.

Building opportunities for young people and skilled workers has also been a priority. Nolan has supported a major expansion of skilled trades training at Northwestern Polytechnic, including additional trades training seats and the development of a new Skilled Trades Training Centre. These investments are helping prepare more people for careers in construction, energy, transportation, and other industries that are vital to the Peace Region's economy.

As Grande Prairie continues to grow, Nolan has advocated for additional education infrastructure. This includes helping move the proposed Grande Prairie Composite High School expansion from planning into design, an important step toward creating additional space for students and teachers in one of Alberta's fastest-growing communities.

That work is extending into junior and senior high school through Grande Prairie Technical Institute, creating new pathways for students to gain practical experience, explore the skilled trades, and connect their education with future careers.

He has also advocated for investments in local schools and community infrastructure, including playground funding, and has worked with local organizations, municipalities, school divisions, Northwestern Polytechnic, health-care partners, and community leaders to bring Grande Prairie's priorities to the provincial government.

Regional transportation and economic infrastructure have remained important priorities as well. Nolan has supported and continued to advocate for Highway 40, Highway 43X bypass, Maskwa Medical Centre, and an Addiction Recovery Centre, recognizing the importance to families, workers, industry, and throughout northwestern Alberta.

Across these projects, Nolan's approach has been to work alongside the people and organizations already leading in the community and ensure Grande Prairie has a strong voice when decisions are being made in Edmonton.

Early Life and Business Career

Before entering politics, Nolan was an entrepreneur. At just 18 years old, he founded his first construction company and later built and managed several businesses in the Grande Prairie region.

His experience in construction, skilled trades, entrepreneurship, and small business continues to shape his approach to public service. He understands the challenges of building a business, creating jobs, meeting payroll, managing employees, and working in industries that are central to Alberta's economy.

That background has contributed to his focus on reducing barriers to employment, expanding skilled trades opportunities, supporting responsible resource development, and creating an economic environment where businesses, workers, and families can succeed.

Serving Grande Prairie

Nolan believes Grande Prairie and northwestern Alberta have an important role to play in Alberta's future.

His work in the Legislature has focused on health-care access in the North, skilled trades and workforce development, responsible resource development, public safety, economic growth, parental rights, and ensuring rural and northern communities have a strong voice in provincial decision-making.

At the centre of that work is a belief in the people of Grande Prairie: the people who get up early, work hard, build businesses, raise families, volunteer in the community, and keep Alberta's economy moving.

Nolan and his wife, Sandra, are proud to call Grande Prairie home, where they are raising their three children.
