This week’s issue has three separate articles on coal mining in Alberta. One will show the survey results and some of the work being done by the Coal Policy Committee, one will show what work Cabin Ridge is still planning to do this summer after the moratorium on Category 2 Lands was made and one is about a local group raising funds to help them research and understand the possible impacts mining will have on this area. The topic of mining in the Crowsnest Pass has been a massive topic before I even came to the Pass. I didn’t really know anything about mining before I started working here and over the last couple years, I’ve had to try and understand all the terms and different types of mining, find out what areas are potentially being mined and who is hoping to mine those areas.

Initial survey results are coming in following the online survey available to all Albertans regarding coal mining in the province. Chair of the Coal Policy Committee, Ron Wallace, says that the survey provided immediate impact on decision-making. “It was based on that information that the committee, very quickly, that the committee formed it s recommendation to the minister to recommend a moratorium (on Category 2 Lands). The survey had a major impact on the committee forming that recommendation to the Minister.” Wallace says the committee has continued working hard to come up with their next plan. “The committee has been working very hard to come up with it s engagement strategy with things like a website. With the website, some of this information will be posted to the wider public. That should happen sometime shortly.”

In response to the recommendations from Alberta’s Coal Policy Committee and legitimate concerns raised by Albertans, including those who participated in a recent online survey, our government is working with companies to halt all coal exploration projects in Category 2 lands effective immediately. The halting of exploration activities will be in effect until later this year after the committee has completed their work and pending longer-term policy decisions based on their findings.
I am pleased with this decision because it was made based on feedback from almost 25,000 Albertans and demonstrates our commitment to an open and honest conversation with Albertans about our province’s long-term approach to coal development. Feedback from the public is vital to ensuring our approach to coal development reflects the interests of all Albertans and I encourage everyone to continue shar
