Description

The Historical Society of Alberta, a 119-year-old nonprofit, has lost its annual $76,000 provincial funding, primarily used for grants and events supporting heritage projects. President Lorien Johansen expresses disappointment and poor communication from the ministers office. Arts, Culture and Status of Women Minister Tanya Fir explains the budget cut, prioritizing bigger groups while heritage nonprofits can still apply for community grants. Johansen suggests a one-year transitional grant to help the society pivot and diversify revenue streams.
