The Legislature remains on break until October 31st. The Select Special Ombudsman and Public Interest Commissioner Search Committee (2022) meeting on September 7th at 1:00 pm is the next upcoming meeting, but no agenda has been released. We’re not going to lie; after a prolonged summer break, we’re running out of ways to tell you that nothing has changed at the legislature.
A final debate is scheduled for the race to become the next UCP leader, and consequently Premier of Alberta. The debate will take place in Edmonton at the Citadel Theatre on Tuesday from 6:00 pm to 8:00 pm. The UCP announced that interest in the race had effectively doubled the party's membership. Will you be tuning in? What questions do you think have yet to be put to the candidates?
Alberta will provide a fiscal update this week. All signs point to a massive boom in royalty revenues. This makes the UCP leadership race even more important - we can't afford to blow the oil and gas windfall again this time!
