An Alberta MLA is getting a lot of attention online for jumping into action during a scary moment at the Strathmore Stampede.
If you ever wonder what kind of leader @LeelaAheer would beā¦
Yesterday she grabbed a bull. Jumped right in front of it. Pushed it, to save someone who was stuck under.
She did not hesitate one minute.
This is my friend. And this is who I want as a leader#ableg #abpoli pic.twitter.com/MGRVonSlMV

Eventually, the bull relents and Aheer guides the person to safety.
It was a very scary situation, but Aheer reassures us that the story has a happy ending.
All good-and thank you for asking. The bull is also fine.
