In her letter, the Premier outlines her expectations that the Alberta Advantage be expanded to include regulatory and approval advantages and asks Minister Nally to deliver on a platform commitment to support Alberta seniors by implementing a seniors discount of 25 per cent to all personal registry services, camping fees and medical driving tests.

The Premier also tasks Minister Nally with:

  • Working with Indigenous partners, finish developing and implementing Alberta's online gaming strategy with a focus on responsible gaming and provincial and Indigenous revenue generation.
  • Reviewing Alberta Gaming, Liquor and Cannabis (AGLC) operations to remove red tape in the liquor and cannabis industries to increase provincial revenue generation and to further increase contributions from AGLC-regulated industries to Alberta charities and community facilities.
  • Diagnosing slow turnaround times in Land Titles and implementing both short-term and long-term solutions that will bring efficiency and faster approvals that allow government to work through and eliminate the backlog.

Video: CHP Talks: Paul Bootsma—Christian Farmers Federation of Ontario #farmers #agriculture

My guest this week is Mr. Paul Bootsma, Policy Coordinator for the Christian Farmers Federation of Ontario (CFFO). We discuss his policy work at the CFFO and how the organization advocates for farmers with both the federal and provincial governments. We also discuss the current issue of waste at some small abbatoirs (slaughter facilities) in Ontario where there seems to be a pattern of excessive condemnation of animal carcasses by provincial inspectors, raising cost for both farmers and abbatoir owners.
