Casually throwing away a decade of work, probably 10s of millions of dollars worth, and making Edmonton start from scratch. Stopping a building boom in its tracks too. Red tape reduction my ass.
Edmonton will be required to adopt rules for high-density infill development that revert to the parameters in place before its 2024 zoning changes for housing types, density and height, and to restore minimum on-site parking requirements in place before 2020. Edmonton will have three months from Oct. 8 to amend its bylaw.

Reporters better put to the Premier that the 400,000 did not vote for a referendum and saying so is gaslighting. #ableg

Fact check of para 1 of Ms Smith's address to Albertans 1. The petition was that of an individual, Mitch Sylvestre, not a group 2. Whlle the Court held that Alberta failed to consult it also held that the UCP's amendments to the Act failed to revive Sylvestre's petition Gaslighting #abpoli #cdnpoli

“Smith’s address last night is worse than advocacy for separatism. It’s an agenda to destroy Canadian federalism from within. To rely on stoking fear and xenophobia, to attack society’s most vulnerable, to dismantle the grand bargains that make Canada the best country in the world.”

The biggest risk in this moment is something sociologists call “symbolic compliance.” That’s when an institution that is violating civil rights gives the public just enough symbolic victories that accountability efforts lose steam before there has been any meaningful change.
