Talk to your neighbours, your friends, your family. Let them know what is at stake. Make your voice heard and show the UCP that Albertans are unhappy with the direction this province is heading. Change happens when we speak up and when we show up. Across Alberta, grassroots groups are mobilizing, organizing petitions, and taking action to push back against a government that’s lost touch with everyday people.
In the last provincial election, multiple ridings across Alberta were decided by razor thin margins. In Calgary alone, five ridings were won by fewer than 1,000 votes. That is less than the number of people in a single neighbourhood block.
Live in one of these ridings? Volunteers are organizing recall petitions. Want to help, sign, or learn more? Get involved and make your voice heard.
Want to start your own recall petition? Questions? Process? Operation Total Recall is another grassroots effort that offers templates for petitions, signage and outreach.
Operation Total RecallElectors can use the citizen initiative process to have a legislative or policy proposal introduced in the Legislative Assembly or to have a constitutional referendum conducted.
Do You Think The Government of Alberta Should End Its Current Practice of Allocating Public Funds to Accredited Independent (Private) Schools?
This is the question that is being asked through a Citizen Initiative Petition, which they hope to see Albertans vote on in an upcoming Referendum.
Have Your SayPublic education is under threat.
On October 27, 2025 the UCP introduced Bill 2, the Back to School Act. The Act invokes the “notwithstanding clause” (Section 33 of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms) to override certain constitutional protections so the strike can be ended and teachers would be forced to return to work.
The act also prevents the Alberta Teachers’ Association (ATA) from bargaining or striking until September 2028 and blocks any court from overturning the law.
The UCP continues diverting taxpayer dollars to private institutions while public schools face overcrowding, staff shortages and resource cuts. A private school now gets 70 per cent of the public school per-student grant. Per-student spending on private schools is expected to grow to $544 million by 2027-28.
Other efforts across Alberta and Canada are also voicing their frustration with the UCP government, organizing petitions, rallies, and local campaigns to demand change.
