Corb Lund Demands Coal Pause | Calgary News

Corb Lund is demanding a halt to all coal development until a court can review how Elections Alberta handled his Water Not Coal petition, citing mounting evidence of procedural chaos and unfairness — including the resignations of five former Elections Alberta staff who described a disorganized, inconsistent process that left them unsure how to validate signatures. While Elections Alberta insists it followed legal procedures and made only necessary updates, it’s now withholding further comment pending the judicial review. Lund is pushing for an expedited ruling by January and urging the Premier to commit to a transparent audit of existing coal approvals, while also calling for urgent dialogue to safeguard the Eastern Slopes’ environment and economy — framing this as a critical test of institutional integrity ahead of upcoming elections.
