Why Chemistry Matters
Chemists touch every aspect of life. From clean drinking water to managing train derailments, dealing with chemical and biological weapons, clandestine laboratories and prosecution of crimes, chemists play a key role in the protection of public safety.

In Alberta, the current legislative framework includes 9 Acts and 28 supporting regulations that govern 22 professional regulatory organizations (PROs). In Spring 2022, the Alberta Government introduced Bill 23, known as the Professional Governance Act (PGA). This Act aims to consolidate, streamline, and standardize multiple pieces of legislation.
