ACEC-SK Gearing Up for Provincial Election

Strategic Infrastructure Investment will be the message put forward by your association in the run up to the provincial election on April 4, 2016.  See the full message here. ACEC-SK plans to undertake a targeted election communications campaign to raise awareness of the importance of strategic infrastructure investment. It will reinforce that consulting engineers and geoscientists are the best equipped to advise government how to get the greatest return for their infrastructure investment.

ACEC-SK will also be taking to the web with www.VoteInfrastructure.ca, a re-purposed ACEC-Canada micro-site that will engage the public in a discussion about the importance of infrastructure investment. This site will be asking the major Saskatchewan political parties about their positions on this very important issue.

Finally, ACEC-SK will be counting on the participation of its members by kicking off a grass-roots campaign whereby individuals from member firms will be asked to meet with candidates in their local constituency offices.  Communication pieces about infrastructure investment and the critical role this industry has to play in this process are currently being developed to provide members with talking points in meetings with political candidates.  Your firm will soon be contacted with a request to participate in this grassroots campaign.  Mandatory group training sessions will be offered prior to meeting with candidates in order to ensure consistent industry messaging is delivered.

ACEC-SK is looking forward to being a visible participant in the upcoming provincial election, and we are counting on your help.  Please watch for further communication about these initiatives in the near future, and information about how you can get involved!
