The Alberta government plans to dismiss all members of Chestermere city council and its senior administration team due to months of resistance against a province-ordered investigation. Municipal Affairs Minister Ric McIver expressed dissatisfaction with the city’s response to directives set by the province and the failure to meet obligations under the Municipal Government Act. The city intends to contest the dismissals in court, with a lawyer already filing for an injunction. Political scientist Lori Williams notes that municipalities can be dismissed if they do not follow certain provisions, and this move may be seen as necessary given the ongoing issues in Chestermere.
