Public Interest Alberta sponsors forums on DEMOCRATIC RENEWAL IN ALBERTA
Public Interest Alberta (PIA) is offering citizens a chance to play a role in bringing about democratic renewal in our province. PIA is sponsoring eight regional forums around the province, entitled: A MORE DEMOCRATIC ALBERTA - MAKING IT HAPPEN.
The forums will feature a proposal for democratic reform that has been developed over the past year by PIA's Task Force on Democracy. The discussion paper proposes nine major areas of change in order to bring about a more democratic Alberta. Participants in the regional forums will have the opportunity to discuss in depth the proposals, and will also consider strategies and actions to help bring about the necessary changes.
