Citizens Recalling MLA Nolan Dyck
63 Grande Prairie Constituency
NEW: Our permanent signing location is open Jan. 12th thru Feb. 17th!
Grande Prairie deserves accountable leadership — and we’re making it happen.
MLA Nolan Dyck (elected May 29, 2023) has a responsibility to represent this community with transparency, honesty, and respect for public services. When that responsibility fails, citizens have the power to step up and take action.
According to Elections Alberta, MLAs are elected to represent your needs and interests in government. When that duty isn’t being met, it’s up to the community to respond.
“This fight is not about party lines. It’s a community standing up for itself after being ignored by the government. And we are standing together to change that.”

Frequently Asked Questions
Here’s what our community is asking as we work together to hold our MLA accountable.
Why Recall Nolan Dyck?
This official recall is happening because Nolan Dyck isn’t doing the job Grande Prairie elected him to do.
Elections Alberta reviewed the application, approved the petition, and confirmed that residents now have a legal pathway to hold their MLA accountable under the Recall Act.
For two years, parents, disability advocates, caregivers, and community organizations have reported the same pattern: Dyck is inaccessible, unresponsive, and difficult to reach when people need answers.
Dyck supported Bill 2, legislation that forced teachers back to work, imposed a contract they had rejected, froze local bargaining until 2028, and invoked the Charter’s notwithstanding clause to block any Charter challenge. Legal experts, labour organizations, and constitutional scholars criticized Bill 2 for overriding core right-to-strike protections.
And after he was informed that a recall effort involving him was underway, Dyck moved a motion to cut Elections Alberta’s requested recall and initiative funding by 89%. Alberta’s Chief Electoral Officer warned that the cut could limit the office’s ability to properly administer recall petitions.
Since the recall application was filed, the government introduced Bill 9, again invoking the notwithstanding clause—this time to shield legislation affecting transgender children, youth, and gender-diverse Albertans from court review. Major legal, health, and human-rights organizations condemned this second use of the override.
Nolan also voted for Bill 14, legislation that restructures how Alberta makes law.
Bill 14 transfers broad authority from the Legislature into cabinet regulation, allowing major policy frameworks to be changed, replaced, or overridden through executive order rather than open legislative debate.
This weakens democratic safeguards that protect everyone, not just workers, by reducing transparency, public notice, committee review, and the ability of Albertans to see, challenge, and influence decisions before they take effect.
Indigenous governments and legal organizations have raised concerns that this model limits meaningful consultation and creates a pathway for rights-impacting changes to be made before First Nations and Métis governments have a fair opportunity to respond or assert constitutionally protected treaty rights.
By shifting law-making power away from elected representatives and into cabinet hands, Bill 14 concentrates authority, reduces accountability, and increases the risk of quiet, rapid changes that affect the rights, finances, and protections of all Albertans.
These are the publicly documented actions and decisions that brought Grande Prairie to this point. This recall is about accountability, transparency, and the expectation that our MLA works for the people who elected him.

How many signatures are needed?
We have 90 days — from November 21, 2025 to February 19, 2026 — to collect 9,427 signatures from eligible voters in the Grande Prairie riding. Every signature must be on the official Elections Alberta form and witnessed by a certified canvasser.
The petition has now been issued, and the 90-day signature period is officially underway.
If enough signatures are gathered, then what?
If we collect 9,427 valid signatures (60% of the voters from the last election), this automatically triggers a recall vote in the Grande Prairie riding.
During the recall vote, all eligible voters in the riding can cast a ballot to either keep or recall Nolan Dyck.
If more than 50% vote to recall, Nolan Dyck is removed as MLA, and Elections Alberta will call a by-election to choose a new representative.
If 50% or fewer vote to recall, he remains the MLA.
How are recall donations handled and accounted for?
All recall donations are tracked and managed by the campaign’s Chief Financial Officer, as required by Elections Alberta. Every contribution and every expense must be recorded and included in a final financial disclosure when the recall period ends. Elections Alberta reviews this report and provides any required direction. All funds must be used only for recall-related purposes, and all financial activity must comply with the Recall Act and Elections Alberta’s financing rules.
