EDMONTON — Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi says the government's proposed bill to wipe out municipal councils' codes of conduct could create a free-for-all of delinquency and grift. "This bill is an affront to local voters. It basically says to local voters, ‘We don't trust you,’" Nenshi told reporters at the legislature Wednesday. Municipal Affairs Minister Ric McIver proposed the bill in the house Tuesday.

EDMONTON — Alberta NDP Leader Naheed Nenshi says the government's proposal to wipe out municipal councils' codes of conduct could create a free-for-all of delinquency and grift. It comes a day after Municipal Affairs Minister Ric McIver proposed a new bill, saying codes of conduct have been weaponized to silence dissent on municipal councils. McIver says the changes won't offer free rein to misbehave, and the aim is to create a better system of standards that can't be misused.

EDMONTON – The Alberta United Conservative government introduced two bills Tuesday to reduce the self-policing powers of elected public school boards and municipal councils. One bill, if passed, would cancel local councils’ codes of conduct and put an end to any ongoing complaints or sanctions that aren’t before the courts.
