The Fair Deal Panel is holding a town hall in Calgary, Alta. tonight at Commonwealth Centre.

The panel – created by Premier Kenney’s government – is consulting Albertans on how best “to define and secure a fair deal for the province.”

They’re exploring ideas that give the province a bigger voice within the federation, increase power over areas of provincial jurisdiction and advance vital economic interests.

The Calgary town hall will be held from 6:30-8:30 p.m. For more information, visit the event website. Please note that reserved tickets for this event are now sold out.

The Fair Deal Panel will be returning to the region for another town hall in Airdrie on Jan. 16, 2020.

All Albertans will have the opportunity to share their vision of how Alberta can achieve a fairer deal by providing their input online and through other forms of direct feedback as the panel conducts its public consultations until Jan. 30, 2020.

More information on how to participate is available at www.fairdeal.ca.

In addition to receiving input from Albertans, the Fair Deal Panel will consult with policy experts and undertake research to inform its recommendations.

The panel will complete its report to the government by March 31, 2020.
