The push comes after five former Elections Alberta staff resigned over chaotic signature-counting procedures they say undermined fairness and integrity. Lund sees their departure as validation of his own concerns, and while Elections Alberta insists it followed the law, the legal process now looms — potentially by January or later in 2027. Lund’s letter to the Premier also calls for transparency in reviewing existing approvals and urges action to safeguard the Eastern Slopes’ water and land. Fueled by anger at perceived dishonesty and a fierce commitment to protecting rural ecosystems, Lund vows his movement won’t back down.
