In the County of Grande Prairie, Alberta — a new chapter is unfolding, and it begins with a familiar name.

On October 20th, residents headed to the polls, casting their votes for the people they believe will shape their community’s future — some new voices, and some well-known ones returning to the table.

Just a week later, at the very first meeting of this new council, the group turned to a trusted hand to guide them forward.

Former Deputy Reeve Amanda McDonald has been chosen by her peers to take on the role of Reeve — to lead the County of Grande Prairie into its next chapter.

We sat down with Reeve McDonald to talk about leadership, local priorities, and what lies ahead for this growing region.

This… is Municipal Affairs.
