2) There is going to be a pretty decent cost to mobilize a group that big with everything they need (they might be short on cash if they are making badges and getting clipboards for 8000 people)
3) 300,000 signatures is definitely possible
We went to North Glenmore Park today and they had a great set up. 2 tables, probably 6 or 9 clipboards, and people were constantly walking or driving up to sign and then go about their day. It was moving really fast so there was never much of a line.
If they can keep that going at each of these locations, I think they could pull an extra 100K.

The canvasser kits are gratis, courtesy Elections Alberta.
Volunteers supply their own clipboards, pens, signage etc. and print out their own sheets. And buy their t-shirts.
I've seen a lot of late-20s, 30s types (with young kids in tow) signing.
