Our municipality was neither informed nor considered while this decision has been progressing. Multiple municipalities from Nonhern Alberta met with Minister Hoffman (Apri|18) to voice our concerns and were assured that we would be advised/consulted/informedbefore any decision was made. It was very disheartening to hear from Gordon Bates (Executive Director — Air Ambulance Services) at AHS, that a decision to award the contract to a single proponent was imminent. This bad decision will be very devastating for the residents of Northern Alberta for the following reasons: - Key components of the RFP process have been completely ignored. For example, one of the criteria identified within the RFP was the condition that hangar space he provided at the air base. The successful proponent does not have hangar space as there is no available space to be had. This calls the entire RFP process into question. Ifthere is no hangar space available, response time will increase as the service will have to come from some other community. Since Peace River had the most Air Ambulance flights last year (1400+), it seems counter-intuitive to bring the planes from outside the community.

    Alberta Politics in the time of Public Opinion Research Release Date: July 29, 2020 COVID-19: July 2020 Update Field Dates: July 14, 2020 to July 20, 2020 STRICTLY PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL Alberta Politics in the time of COVID-19 The COVID-19 outbreak has set off a series of changes in the Canadian political landscape. In Alberta, approval of the government’s handling of the outbreak has remained positive and steady since June– though lagging behind the provincial average. Kenney’s personal favourability has dropped since June while Rachel Notley’s is on the rise; yet, the UCP continues to hold a lead in vote intention due to their strong partisan base. Today, INNOVATIVE is releasing results from July 2020 Canada This Month survey. The online survey was in field from July 14th to July 20th with a weighted sample size of 300 Alberta residents. Detailed methodology is provided in the appendix. This report covers key results on how those from Alberta are rating their government’s handling of the COVID-19 outbreak and the impacts that is having on more general government approval and provincial vote choice. Government Approval General government satisfaction is down, but approval of the Alberta government’s handling of the outbreak is steady since June. All-in-all, Alberta still remains 12 points behind the provincial average when it comes to their handling of the outbreak.

  • Universities Receive Approval to Address Market Anomalies One-Time Tuition Fee Adjustments Will Help Balance Affordability and Quality
    April 7, 2010 Universities receive approval to address market anomalies One-time tuition fee adjustments will help balance affordability and quality Edmonton... One-time tuition fee adjustments for six professional programs will help Alberta’s two biggest universities maintain quality without compromising affordability for students. Minister of Advanced Education and Technology, Doug Horner approved the adjustments to address market anomalies that existed when tuition fees were capped in 2004. The increases will not apply to students who are currently in these programs or making plans for this coming fall. They will be implemented for new students starting in fall 2011. “These adjustments will ensure the continued quality of these programs,” said Horner. “Students have indicated their support and I understand that some are working with their universities to see a percentage of the new revenue reinvested into student supports, like scholarships and bursaries.” A total of 24 proposals were received from five institutions. The six accepted proposals are for Engineering, Pharmacy, Bachelor of Commerce and Graduate Studies programs at the University of Alberta and Bachelor of Commerce and Masters of Business Administration programs at the University of Calgary. Increases of between $800 and $3,300 per year were approved based on an anomaly existing in 2004, support from student associations, and keeping costs comparable to other programs in Canada. “These have not been easy decisions to make. You have to look at the proposals on a case-by-case basis,” said Horner. “In the end, what it really comes down to is finding the right balance between affordability and quality.

It examines this conflict in the context of long-term processes of capitalist growth, Neoliberal Extractivist development, settler colonial expansion, and transnational economic integration. It explains how both the project itself and the political response to it emerged from and helped constitute a series of interrelated national and global economic, political, and ecological crises. In doing so, it identifies extractivist development in Canada as an extension of the broader Neoliberal class project.

  • President's Report
    Public School Boards’ Association of Alberta President’s Report: 2014 Annual General Meeting 2014 Annual General Meeting President, Arlene Hrynyk President’s Report: 2014 Annual General Meeting In October 2013 I made the commitment to our Members that I would focus on building strong relationships, listen carefully to the wisdom of our Members and carry forward the stories of our Public Schools as we focus daily on that which is in the best interests of our children. It has been an exciting year, full of wonderful opportunities which have enabled me to share the message that our Public Schools have and will continue to invite, celebrate and support ALL children; that our Members believe Alberta’s Public Schools are the first choice of our communities, where all of our children learn and live the values of democracy together, reflecting our hope and shaping the future of our communities. I am honored to serve as your President and reaffirm my commitment that my work will continue to focus on that which unites all of us who proudly serve the staff, families and communities that support all children attending Alberta’s Public Schools. The Report which follows provides several highlights regarding the work I have undertaken over the past year. Priorities One/Two: Support and Improve Public School Education/Local Governance Meetings with Hon. J. Johnson, Minister of Education Over the past year I have met and/or spoken with the Hon. J. Johnson, Minister of Education on a number of occasions. During our conversations I have focused on the Association’s priorities including the following: • Inspiring Education • My Child’s Learning Website • Provincial Bargaining Model • Regulatory Review • Task Force for Teaching Excellence • Infrastructure and Space Concerns • Funding for Public Schools • Effective Partnerships and Communications I have found the meetings to be an excellent opportunity to reaffirm our ability to be solution focused, which was acknowledged by the Minister.
