Alberta’s rural communities and provincial government are improving cooperation under new Minister Dan Williams, despite ongoing concerns over funding, policing, and housing policies.
Alberta’s rural municipalities and provincial government are experiencing improved cooperation after years of tension, spurred by new Municipal Affairs Minister Dan Williams’ outreach to over 40 communities.
While Williams is praised for his accessible approach, concerns remain over proposed provincial police service, underfunded infrastructure—projected to exceed $40 billion by 2028—and past consultation gaps.
Premier Danielle Smith has directed Williams to limit property tax increases, resolve policy conflicts, and reinstate a universal code of conduct for officials.
The government emphasizes collaboration, supports core municipal services, and aims to ensure fair housing access through potential taxes on secondary homes, without targeting foreign ownership.
