bill 19 rumble in ryley [joe anglin v. jack hayden].

Recent amendments removing sections of the controversial Bill 19: Land Assembly Project Area Act have satisfied some critics, but others remain steady in their opposition to the legilsation. Central Alberta landowner and Green Party leader Joe Anglin still has serious concerns about the legislation and has in recent weeks organized Town Hall meetings on Bill 19 in Warburg and Ponoka which attracted the attention of four PC MLAs who showed up to defend their government's Bill.

In recent weeks, the Wild Rose Agricultural Producers, the Council of Canadians, Greenpeace, and the Sierra Club have also voiced their opposition to Bill 19.

Tonight, Anglin will face off against Infrastructure Minister Jack Hayden at an open forum in Ryley, Alberta:
