“The Southern Alberta Council on Public Affairs offers a great forum for area residents to meet and challenge those in and around the public sector,” said Hourihan. “I was grateful for the opportunity to share information about the work our offices do, and to answer several well-informed questions from an organization that understands the importance of public policy issues.”
A team of three Ombudsman investigators travelled to Pincher Creek on September 17 to meet with complainants, and then met with complainants in Lethbridge the following day.
