  • Premier Stelmach Sets out Priorities; Names New Cabinet, Reorganizes Portfolios Changes to Government Structure Reflect Government Priorities
    March 12, 2008 Premier Stelmach sets out priorities; names new Cabinet, reorganizes portfolios Changes to government structure reflect government priorities Edmonton... Premier Ed Stelmach has laid out the priorities for his new administration, reorganizing portfolios and adding four new ministries. The Premier also named his new Cabinet which features new faces and new assignments for previous members, and introduces the role of parliamentary assistants who will help support ministers on key projects. "This Cabinet and new government structure will focus on building a stronger Alberta and improving the lives of Albertans,” said Premier Stelmach. “The Cabinet team balances experience and new perspectives and is well skilled for the work ahead.” The new Cabinet will be focused on five priorities: ensuring Alberta’s energy resources are developed in an environmentally sustainable way; increasing access to quality health care and improving the efficiency and effectiveness of health care service delivery; enhancing value-added activity, increasing innovation, and improving the long-run sustainability of Alberta’s economy; reducing crime so Albertans feel safe in their communities; and providing the roads, schools, hospitals and other public infrastructure to meet the needs of a growing economy and population. Changes to the government structure will help better meet these priorities. Government’s increased focus on culture is reflected in the new Ministry of Culture and Community Spirit which also has responsibility for the voluntary sector and the Human Rights Commission. The new Ministry of Housing and Urban Affairs will help fulfill government’s plan to ensure affordable housing is available to all Albertans and to address emerging urban issues.

  • 1 November 2007 the Honourable Ed Stelmach
    1 November 2007 The Honourable Ed Stelmach Premier of Alberta Office of the Premier Room 307, Legislature Building 10800 - 97th Avenue Edmonton, Alberta T5K 2B6 Dear Premier Stelmach, RE: Bill 46 Alberta Utilities Commission Act The Pembina Institute has reviewed Bill 46 (Alberta Utilities Commission Act) and welcomes the opportunity to submit our comments on the important issues raised by this proposed legislation. The Pembina Institute is a non-governmental organization which promotes sustainable energy solutions and has been reviewing energy issues in Alberta since 1985. We have regularly provided constructive input on government proposals, taking part in many consultative processes both on our own initiative and, upon occasion, at the invitation of the government. The proposed Alberta Utilities Commission will have jurisdiction over all types of utility facilities and lines, including electricity generation and transmission lines. The location of such facilities and lines are often contentious matters since they adversely affect the property of individual landowners and are likely to have negative impacts on air quality and water, thus impacting a broader public. These decisions also have broader implications for the development of a sustainable energy system for Alberta. In a democracy, the public expects to have the rights and freedom to defend their interests and to contribute in an effective and constructive manner to important decisions. Bill 46 as it stands will considerably undermine those rights and some sections must therefore be drastically amended. We do not object to the proposal to split the current Alberta Energy and Utilities Board (“EUB”) into two separate bodies, but we are very concerned with provisions in Bill 46 that have the potential to seriously limit and even remove the rights of individual Albertans and stakeholder groups to appear before the proposed Alberta Utilities Commission (“the Commission”).

  • Lethbridge Courthouse and Sifton House Get $300,000 for Upgrades Investments Are Part of Overall Plan to Refurbish Provincial Infrastructure
    November 1, 2007 Lethbridge Courthouse and Sifton House get $300,000 for upgrades Investments are part of overall plan to refurbish provincial infrastructure Lethbridge... Two provincial facilities in Lethbridge will receive a combined estimated $300,000 in upgrades, thanks to recently announced infrastructure maintenance funding by the Alberta government. “Albertans know that preventative maintenance saves money in the long run, and so does their government,” said Luke Ouellette, Minister of Infrastructure and Transportation. “We’re taking a proactive approach to prolonging the life of provincial facilities, and that makes good business sense.” The Lethbridge Courthouse will receive an estimated $200,000 toward major renovations to six public washrooms, including the addition of new, water-conserving fixtures and barrier-free access. At Sifton House, the kitchen exhaust system will be replaced at a cost of $100,000. The old system is not functioning properly and interferes with the operation of other building ventilation systems. Work on both projects is expected to start immediately and be complete by March 2008. “These investments demonstrate the Stelmach government’s commitment to renewing our infrastructure,” said Clint Dunford, MLA for Lethbridge-West. “Government is focusing its investments on local needs across the province.” These projects are part of a $350-million commitment by government to fix and maintain more than 100 schools, hospitals, post-secondary facilities and government buildings across the province. “While it is important to build new infrastructure to meet the needs of our growing province, it is also critical that we ensure the buildings we have already are well maintained, safe and in good working order,” said Gene Zwozdesky, Associate Minister of Capital Planning.
