Active and past recall petitions
Alberta's Municipal Government Act (MGA) lets citizens recall a Council member through a recall petition process.
Any active notice of recall petition and past recall petition results are listed below. A notice of recall petition that has been published on this page has been deemed compliant by Elections Calgary.
A petition is considered sufficient if it includes signatures from a minimum of 40% of the population in a ward (or city for the recall of a mayor). Only individuals who are eligible to vote for the elected official named in the notice of recall petition may sign the recall petition.
For more information on a specific recall petition please contact the representative recall petitioner directly. A representative petitioner must provide contact information for this purpose.
