Alberta Approves Recall Petition Targeting UCP MLA Nolan Dyck

The decision opens a 90-day push in Grande Prairie to gather 9,427 verified signatures that could force a retention vote.

Overview

  • Petition applicant Casey Klein accuses Dyck of being inaccessible and cites his support for using the notwithstanding clause to end a recent teachers’ strike.
  • Dyck disputes the claims, saying he met with Klein in August and responds to constituent emails within three business days.
  • The signature window runs to Feb. 19, and only residents who have lived in the Grande Prairie riding for at least three months may sign in person.
  • Canvassers must register, Elections Alberta will verify signatures by March 13, and results are slated to be reported by March 20.
  • Dyck is the third UCP MLA with an approved recall petition after Angela Pitt and Demetrios Nicolaides, under recall rules introduced in 2021 and later revised by the current government.
