Fairness is procedural too
When the September 24 agenda listed next steps for Bill 208, it raised a simple fairness issue: people affected by the rule need to know the evidence, the enforcement path, and the review trigger before the rule advances.
The fairness checklist
- Clear reasons.
- Clear compliance duties.
- Clear enforcement reach.
- Clear public review.

Alberta already publishes detailed retailer obligations and penalties on its rules and enforcement page. That level of clarity should be carried into any new restriction.
