So the #UCP in #Alberta are going for straight up gerrymandering: they’ve decided to toss the redistricting that was the result of a multi-year non-partisan scheduled process because they don’t like the report. Why not? Because our province’s population growth has been in cities, and cities don’t vote conservative. The excuse is to add another 2 extra MLAs, but this will be an excuse to produce a lot of hybrid suburban/rural ridings to dilute the progressive vote.

An engineer just reviewed the Synapse submission to the AUC and flagged some pretty big concerns. They contacted me to send the information to the Olds residents and I'm feeling like this is why I do what I do.

If you have any expertise you want to lend to the community's input to the proposed project, you can find the submission here, under Proceeding 30732 in the eFiling section of the AUC website.
