  • Alberta Provincial Electoral Division Profile And
    Alberta Provincial Electoral Divisions Spruce Grove-St. Albert Compiled from the 2011 Census of Canada and National Household Survey Introduction This report presents the statistical profile for the Provincial Electoral Division (PED) of Spruce Grove-St. Albert. This profile is based on the electoral boundaries as defined by the Alberta Electoral Divisions Act, Chapter E-4.2, 2010. A PED is a territorial unit represented by an elected Member to serve in the Alberta Provincial Legislative Assembly. Data in this report have been specially tabulated from Statistics Canada’s 2011 Census of Canada and the 2011 National Household Survey, by allocation of Statistics Canada block face reference points to PEDs. These data include the following characteristics: age, sex, marital status, household types, language, Aboriginal identity, ethnic origin, place of birth, mobility, dwelling characteristics, education, labour force activity and income. The global non-response rate (GNR) for the PED of Spruce Grove-St. Albert is 25.0%. The GNR combines both complete non-response (household) and partial non-response (question) into a single rate. The GNR is an indicator of data quality, where a smaller GNR suggests more accuracy. When the GNR is 50% or above, the data are suppressed. The GNR is identified for each region. A higher GNR indicates the need for user caution. Users are advised to refer to the endnotes of this PED profile for further information regarding data quality and definitions. A map for this PED can be found at the end of the document.

  • November 24, 2020 Honourable Travis Toews President of Treasury
    November 24, 2020 Honourable Travis Toews President of Treasury Board and Minister of Finance 208 Legislature Building Edmonton, AB T5K 2B6 Dear Minister Toews: As you prepare the 2021 provincial budget, AUMA would like to take the opportunity to provide the perspective of our member municipalities. We acknowledge Alberta’s government is facing difficult choices while you work through significant unknown elements related to the COVID-19 pandemic, oil price shock and the global economic recession. While you take measures to re-establish a sustainable fiscal trajectory for the province, we ask that you consider these principles in your decision-making process. The choices you make in Budget 2021 and the corresponding three-year fiscal plan will have a long-term impact on Albertans, who live and work in our communities. Below are three AUMA principle-based requests for your consideration. 1. Stable and predictable long-term funding COVID-19 is putting extra pressure on existing weaknesses in the municipal financial model. In the short term, we have sought immediate, coordinated support from provincial and federal governments, in the form of capital stimulus and emergency operational funding. We are thankful Alberta’s government responded to these needs. The support provided in Alberta’s Economic Recovery plan, including operational funding support provided through the Municipal Operating Support Transfer and the additional capital funding through the Municipal Stimulus Program, were a lifeline for municipalities and important to their stability during the pandemic. Overall, the province has stepped up to support municipalities during this pandemic and we express our appreciation to the province for recognizing the value of investing in communities to help maintain service delivery, create jobs and stimulate economic growth.

    AB Today – Daily Report August 21, 2020 Quotation of the day “Alberta’s government has employed pressure tactics against physicians, devaluing their role in keeping Albertans healthy in and outside of this pandemic.” The Canadian Medical Association accuses the UCP government of refusing to “collaborate” ​ ​ with Alberta doctors. Today in AB On the schedule The swearing-in ceremony for Alberta’s first-ever Muslim lieutenat-governor, Salma Lakhani, ​ ​ will take place next week in the legislature. Finance Minister Travis Toews’ economic update drops next Thursday. ​ ​ Premier watch Ahead of Friday's Conservative Party of Canada leadership vote, contender Erin O’Toole ​ reminded the Twitter crowd of his endorsement from Premier Jason Kenney (and contrasted it ​ ​ ​ ​ with the Toronto Star’s endorsement of his rival, Peter MacKay). ​ ​ ​ ​ Last year, Kenney said Rona Ambrose would be his “first choice” for CPC leader, but when she ​ ​ decided not to run, he backed O’Toole. Kenney, O’Toole and MacKay all served as cabinet ministers under ex-prime minister Stephen ​ Harper. O’Toole has also garnered public endorsements from 15 other UCP MLAs and cabinet ministers, including Jason and Jeremy Nixon, Demetrios Nicolaides, Tanya Fir, Kaycee ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ Madu, Josephine Pon, Michaela Glasgo, Miranda Rosin, Mike Ellis, Nicholas Milliken, Ric ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ McIver, Rajan Sawhney, Rebecca Schulz, Dale Nally and Rick Wilson. ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ ​ While MacKay has advertised his endorsements from provincial lawmakers in other provinces, such as Ontario, Quebec and Nova Scotia, he doesn’t appear to have got much traction with the UCP. A number of federal MPs from Alberta ridings have backed him, and so did ex-Wildrose leader Brian Jean.
