THIS WEEK IN ALBERTA

  • The Legislature is now on break for the summer. It is currently scheduled to return at the end of October, though this is by no means final, and could be changed - especially with the prospect of a new Premier with a new agenda. Despite the Legislature not sitting, the work of our MLAs continues, with committees continuing to meet (see below), local and constituency meetings, and more.
  • Though the Legislature has finished, committees are continuing, with the Standing Committee on The Alberta Heritage Savings Trust Fund meeting this morning from 7:45 am to 9:45 am to discuss the fund’s third-quarter report. There will also be a meeting of the Standing Committee on Privileges and Elections, Standing Orders and Printing on Tuesday from 10:00 am to 11:30 am to discuss the allocation of speaking and business time in the Legislature.
  • Restaurants in Alberta no longer need approval from Alberta Health Services to allow dogs on their patios. However, restaurants are not obligated to allow dogs. Choice! What a novel concept! If you want to dine with your dog this summer, call your favourite restaurant to make sure they are participating before showing up with Fido.
