From the meeting
Alberta Counsel presented an advocacy strategy to council on October 20, 2026. The material focused on how the Town should frame priorities, build relationships, and prepare follow-up materials for Ministers, MLAs, and staff. It is not a procurement, but it does show the Town working with an outside advisor on government-relations messaging and next-step planning.
The buying trigger is continued advocacy support, not a contract award in the packet.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
