A Daveberta exclusive? Great stuff!
ReplyDeleteNot quite...the LAO sent this out as a news release about an hour ago.
ReplyDeleteNot quite an exclusive. I got it before it went out on the email list to the public, but obviously after it was written. I suppose it's an exclusive if you're not one of the 500 people who work around the LAO.
ReplyDeleteArcher and Evans are good choiced. Jeffs is a former EJ reporter and will be an interesting commissioner. Good luck to them all.
ReplyDeleteAre any of these people reappointments from the last time, or are they all new to this process?
ReplyDeleteanonymous -- these are all new appointments. Previous appointees were Glenn Clegg, Bonnie Mackay, and Ernie Patterson.
ReplyDeletewill they be able to recommend either reducing the number of MLAs or keeping the current number and just re-adjusting ridings?
ReplyDeleteI am not convinced we need more MLA's
Means for travel and communications have improved.
Will Albertans really be better served or represented by additional party lap dogs?
The province has increased in population bigtime the last 8 years - if anything I'd like to see 10 more MLA's not 4.
ReplyDeleteLooking at Trish Audette's blog today, I have to wonder at Swann's rejection of former Edmonton city council member Michael Phair... I'm quite sure I often saw him at Edmonton Centre Liberal events - is it because he is too pro-Edmonton?
