Proposed amendments to Emergency Management Act
Amendments to the Emergency Management Act by the province are intended to make things easier and more clear between different levels of government during the COVID-19 pandemic.
The province will give notice of its intentions to the legislature today.
The amendments were developed in consultation with the cities of Edmonton, Calgary and Red Deer, and will help the province effectively respond to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Medicine Hat has not declared a state of local emergency, though Brooks and Lethbridge have.
