This month saw a new project come to life!

Updating members on how ACCA’s GR team is advocating on their behalf in the Alberta Legislature.

Summertime for elected officials is usually filled up with attending events, and community BBQs. This year is different, as election events have taken center stage.

Summer tends to be the slow, relaxing time of the year. But not for your ACCA’s government relations team!

At the ACCA AGM in June, we launched our first email campaign platform! At the AGM delegates were asked to test the platform and sign a letter supporting the regulation reductions surrounding the creation of new co-operatives. Everyone at the AGM was able to send off a letter to their local MLA and the Minister of Finance with a simple click of a button.

Join us for our Annual General Meeting which will take place Tuesday, June 14th, from 9:00-10:30 am. This meeting will be a hybrid offering - held virtually using Zoom, and in-person at the Hotel Fairmont Palliser in Calgary. Click here to register for this free event!

The last month has been an exciting time for our government relations efforts. While we are very optimistic at this point, we still have a lot of work ahead of us.

An update on how we’re impacting government decisions to the benefit of co-operatives.
