  1. Recently the City of Edmonton announced yet another reorg. If you know someone who has worked for the city for a while, ask them how about this and past reorgs. Be prepared to listen for a while and to be supportive.

  8. Back to Edmonton specifically
    In my view there is only one clear candidate for mayor that won’t be in the pocket of big business. He also appears to be the only progressive mayor in the running.
    My endorsement for mayor is Andrew Knack.
    For ward Papastew the best candidate is Michael Janz.
    He is easy to contact and provides updates regularly.
    I also recommend Julie Kusiak for public school board trustee ward F.
    She also provides very good updates as to what is happening.

  9. Edmonton municipal elections have begun.
    If you live in Edmonton -even if you are not interested in politics-
    This is an important election. The provincial government has interceded itself into the municipal elections by allowing the creation of parties that can accept donations by big corporations. It also allows a no disclosure clause that doesn’t require candidates to disclose their donors until after the election. This is bad for local politics as your councilor (if part of one of these parties) will vote along party lines and your views will not be considered. The other aspect is it puts those candidates at a huge financial advantage and the wishes of those big donors become policy.

    That’s a summary of the state of municipal politics in Alberta.
