Your Chamber briefs new NDP cabinet on business prioritiesTaking your priorities to the new government right away, your Calgary Chamber was invited to brief the government's new cabinet on Thursday, May 28th. It was a valuable opportunity for Chamber President and CEO Adam Legge (centre) along with Chamber Board Chair Rob Hawley (right) and Director of policy, research and government relations Justin Smith, to introduce the mission and mandate of our organization to finance
minister Joe Ceci (left) and the rest of the newly-elected cabinet, including Premier Notley. We had a productive and informative discussion where we made clear the key challenges facing the business community, and the ways in which proactive government policy can support the Alberta economy and drive future growth. A sign of your influence at work and the clear relevance of Chamber membership, we left the room with plenty of requests for follow-up and future engagement. Through your Chamber membership, you now have an open door to connect with the provincial government.
