I've received a reply from the deputy Minister after letting him know he has an opportunity to align his party with the voters. I called him on letting things ride during much drier conditions during the long weekend, and the optics on this looks like his party is anti user group. I also offered up a voluntary Tag surrender option, where points are restored as a "win win".
Here is the assistant deputy ministers email
Bruce.Mayer@gov.ab.ca
And Patrick Lowen, Director Wildfire prevention
patrick.loewen@gov.ab.ca
Always good for the Gov to know our thoughts.
