Top issues in this provincial election
Your vote matters
Over the next two months, we encourage you to learn more about the current environmental and conservation concerns and opportunities in Alberta, because they impact all Albertans.
Your vote matters. It can shape whether these issues will be prioritized and, consequently, the future of our parks, protected areas, public lands and the critters that inhabit them. We are a non-partisan organization that remains steadfastly committed to ensuring that our wild spaces and species thrive — and we therefore urge you to vote for nature in our upcoming election.
As you decide what that means for you, and investigate each candidate’s platform, here are some key considerations to take into account.
