The Alberta legislature will reconvene on Oct. 30 with legislation geared towards providing financial protection and securing Albertans’ interests.
“Alberta’s government is returning to the legislature with a mandate from voters to grow our economy, protect law-abiding Albertans, improve health care and defend our province from federal interference,” says Joseph Schow, Government House Leader.
In the inaugural session of the 31st legislature, Alberta’s government says it welcomes the opportunity to introduce legislation that will deliver on platform commitments and the mandate received from Alberta voters.
The government says proposed legislation will maintain Alberta’s status as a magnet for investment and growth by protecting Albertans and businesses against future tax hikes and safeguarding pensions, and make housekeeping amendments to tax laws.
Officials note, additional proposed legislation will include further strengthening Alberta’s case against those who helped create the opioid crisis and amendments to improve clarity and ensure legislation aligns with current practices and recent court rulings.
