The fall session has finally wrapped up at the legislature, and there are so many significant bills to be excited about. Bill 73, the Infrastructure Accountability Act, helps Alberta’s Government make important capital project investment decisions that provide Albertans with needed public infrastructure. It demonstrates our commitment to being transparent, accountable, and unbiased when making Capital Plan decisions. As part of this legislation, the government will develop a 20-year Strategic Capital Plan that will outlast government changes after election years — essentially ensuring that the projects that matter the most are prioritized regardless of politics. Last year, you may remember that our government announced a historic $815 million investment to modernize irrigation infrastructure and increase water storage in southern Alberta.
