The 2026 Census is important in Alberta because it directly affects how communities are funded, planned, and represented for years to come.
Census data determines how much provincial and federal funding municipalities receive for infrastructure, healthcare, schools, housing, emergency services, recreation, and transit. If residents are not counted, communities can miss out on important funding.
The census also helps governments and municipalities plan for growth by identifying housing needs, school enrollment trends, healthcare pressures, transportation demands, and workforce changes.
Population counts influence electoral boundaries, political representation, and local planning priorities, helping ensure communities are fairly represented.
Businesses and investors also rely on census data to make decisions about services, development, and job opportunities.
In Alberta, accurate census information is especially important because many municipal funding formulas are based on population counts. In Alberta the Local Government Fiscal Framework (LGFF), distributes hundreds of millions of dollars to municipalities using population-based formulas.
As spring melt continues, potholes are starting to appear around Fairview, and our crews are working to address the worst areas as quickly as possible.
Some potholes may be temporarily filled with gravel or marked until conditions improve. Permanent repairs will take place once the ground dries out and temperatures stabilize.
If you spot a pothole, please report it through our website so we can track problem areas:
