Position statements provide a concise overview of RMA’s position on key policy areas
RMA takes pride in representing the rural municipal perspective to government decision-makers, industry, and other stakeholders. As part of our advocacy efforts, RMA develops and updates a series of position statements that summarize and reflect the RMA perspective on key policy areas. These position statements are updated and approved by the Board of Directors twice each year. RMA encourages members to review the position statements and use them as a resource in local advocacy efforts. The Health position statement will be updated once the Alberta Health Services report is released.
Position statements are divided into the following themes (click on the links to view each category):
- About RMA
- Agriculture
- Broadband and Connectivity
- Climate Change
- Community Services
- Energy
- Environment
- Health
- Industry and Development
- Municipal Finances
- Planning and Development
- Policing and Rural Crime
- Rural Economic Development
- Transportation and Infrastructure
