FCM stands with Alberta Municipalities | Strength in Members and Rural Municipalities of Alberta in expressing concern about Alberta’s Bill-20. This bill threatens to undermine municipal autonomy in a way that could make it harder for local governments to serve Canadians.

Find me a single person who is looking at Federal or Provincial politics right now and saying, 'I wish my town Council was more like that!'

Canadian local government is non-partisan, it's our last bastion of responsible government over populism.

This is an appalling bill.

At Committee District of Muskoka, our planners are now proposing new ways to streamline the peer review process, making it simpler and more consistent.

Getting more housing built means constant efforts to improve our own municipal approval processes.

The PSE sector needs to take a really good look at what SP Institute did over the past year and see what lessons can be learned. One point I would underline: it didn't start from the premise that the solution was always more public funding.

This is one ambitious, far-reaching plan! A ton of new housing initiatives here and a serious plan to pull economic levers to change the equation for builders, buyers, and tenants.

I say this as a politician. Some things are too complicated and too essential to be managed by politicians.

Many neighborhoods would be enriched by little accessory commercial units like this. Beyond a mere amenity to neighbors, imagine how many entrepreneurial dreams could be realized in these modest, affordable commercial spaces.
