Huh, I guess this recent announcement seems relevant to that story.

To dig into these concerns and build a more efficient path forward, Alberta’s government is launching the Sand and Gravel Task Force. This dedicated group will work to streamline regulations related to sand and gravel pits located on private lands, ensuring faster project timelines while continuing to uphold Alberta’s high environmental standards.

It's good to know the SGTF is on the job. I hope they have a cool mission patch, like a pile of gravel with a swoop to symbolize motion and progress.
You may know I love a good pun as much as any fun cool person, but I couldn't imagine the amount of cringe I'd feel standing at a podium and saying this:
“With the launch of the Sand and Gravel Task Force, we’re paving the way for a faster, smoother process. It’s time to stop graveling under bureaucracy and start building Alberta’s future. MLA van Dijken and MLA Lunty will leave no stone unturned as they dig into this important work.”
Rebecca Schulz, Minister of Environment and Protected Areas
