The BIGGEST Coal Risk to Date: Moratorium Lifted
In the middle of the January 2025 hearings on Grassy Mountain, the Minister of Energy and Minerals quietly directed the Alberta Energy Regulator (AER) to remove the moratorium on coal mine development and exploration across the Rocky Mountains and Eastern Slopes, which has been in place since early 2022. Hundreds of thousands of hectares of NEW coal exploration and development could commence THIS spring.
More than 50 organizations, municipalities, and businesses signed on to community-led A Coal Policy for Alberta – 2022 and Beyond based on publicly available feedback submitted to the Coal Policy Committee. It provides a clear path forward to the end of coal in Alberta. Write your MLA, the Minister of Energy and Minerals, and the Premier and demand a policy that keeps Alberta's Rocky Mountains coal-mine free.
Repeal the All-Season Resorts Act: Protect Alberta's Parks and Public Lands
Last December, the Government of Alberta passed Bill 35, turning the All-Season Resorts Act (ASRA) into legislation and exposing our parks to delisting and our public land to privatization. This was profoundly undemocratic and unethical, and we did not agree to it. Alberta’s parks, protected areas, and public lands belong to ALL of us. Full stop. We will not stand idly by while the ASRA strips us of the beloved places that belong to all of us — let's take action, together.

Defend Alberta Parks
Parks and protected areas make Alberta resilient. They provide us with places to escape the everyday, connect with nature, and feel refreshed and peaceful. On top of the individual mental and physical health benefits of parks, they also provide us with clean drinking water, store carbon in their trees, soils and grasses, and provide homes for the wildlife that many of us admire and depend on for food.
Our laws should make sure that these important values are enshrined and protected – for us, and for all future generations.
