If I worked for AHS for example, I'd be terrified of him getting that information.
for civic politics, what need would candidates have for voters lists anyway?
would it really hurt the process to deny access to all candidates?

If I understand how municipal politics work, and I don't, the AB government has 100% full control. They can make a bill tomorrow dismantling our council and elections and they could choose to direct admin the City.
If the City is legally required to send the voters list (apparently the City is seeking seeking legal options, but I haven't read enough, not sure if they have too or not)....
The City should publicly ask for the GoA to draft a bill not allowing the voter list to be sent to all candidates this election, citing threats made by a candidate against the voters.
Add to that this are GoA employees (well AHS, but whatever) being threatened.
In short, if the City chooses their hands are tired, escalate it to the GoA. T
he GoA hasn't provided City Charters, they want to retain this power, well use it. (edit City charters were provided, but I don't think it changes my point, not sure).
