This Week In Alberta:

  • Happy Family Day! Due to the holiday, there will be no Committee meetings this week, and the Legislature isn't due back until next week. However, if you are in Edmonton, there are a number of family-friendly events happening at the Legislature. Enjoy the holiday!

  • The Teck Frontier Project is under threat, with the federal government considering rejecting it outright. If you haven't already, please sign our petition to approve the project immediately. If you've already signed, thank you - now please share it with your friends and co-workers, asking them to sign too. Let's send a message to Ottawa: Approve Teck Now!

  • With the Alberta budget due next week, we expect to start hearing rumours and trial-balloons of what we are likely to see in the UCP's first full budget since being elected last year. You can expect to see a whole bunch of adverts, press releases, and calls for more spending from various special interest groups this week too.
