Alberta government moving to fire entire board that oversees provincial real estate industry

Oct 9, 2019 | 3:25 PM

The Alberta government is moving to fire the entire board that regulates the provincial real-estate industry on the grounds it is hopelessly dysfunctional and wracked by infighting.

Service Alberta Minister Nate Glubish has tabled legislation that will allow the province to dismiss the board and appoint an interim administrator until a new board is in place.

Glubish says the problems plaguing the Real Estate Council of Alberta have gone on too long and critical work is not being addressed.

The decision follows an outside audit report on the council commissioned by the government earlier this year.
