Alberta NDP convention resolutions include fracking ban and end to daylight savings
A moratorium on fracking and an end to daylight savings are among the resolutions at the Alberta NDP convention this weekend.
Other proposals from the party's grassroots include separation of the provincial NDP from the federal NDP and a call to stop advocating for pipelines.
It's doubtful some of the more outlandish ideas will be approved, however, let alone make it to the floor for debate.
With 64 resolutions on the agenda, it's unlikely all will make it up for discussion before the convention ends on Sunday afternoon.
Motions to bump the items on fracking and pipelines closer to the front of the agenda were defeated on Friday, as the convention got underway.
