CRCAG would like to the thank Paul Battistella for his excellent guidance and advocacy on this issue. We would also like to thank all who wrote to council and came to council today to speak on this important matter. Your continued engagement is necessary and needed.
Many thanks to Mayor Nenshi and the Councillors who supported this change, especially Councillors Carra and Wooley who spoke to the matter and brought forward the amendments.
