Municipal Affairs for November 20th, 2023

Welcome to "Municipal Affairs," the show dedicated to delving deep into the matters that shape municipalities across Canada. We're excited to bring you insightful stories, engaging discussions, and exclusive interviews with municipal leaders from coast to coast to coast. Today we are discussing a call to action from Alberta Municipalities regarding the launch of two provincial surveys regarding municipal elections. Then we will discuss the call from the provincial premieres for the federal government to stop negotiating with municipalities and work with provinces instead. Then we will head to Yukon to bring you background on the City of Whitehorse being asked to prioritize accessibility in the downtown core. Finally, we will end in Norfolk County where one council voted to reject Strong Mayor Powers, and what that decision means for the community going forward. *************************************************** Government of Alberta Survey's: Local Authorities Election Act : https://your.alberta.ca/councilor-accountability-laea/survey_tools/laea Municipal Government Act (MGA) Councillor Accountability Review: https://your.alberta.ca/councilor-accountability-laea/survey_tools/mga *************************************************** Support The Show Today: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/support-the-show *************************************************** Follow the Cross Border Interview Podcast: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/crossborderpodcast/ Twitter: https://twitter.com/CrossBorderPod Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CrossBorderInterviews Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCI2i25ZVKTO84oUsLyO4jig Website: https://www.crossborderinterviews.ca/ Municipal Affairs is a Division of the Cross Border Interviews.
