Gotchas
- The full text of this bill is not available online, so specific provisions, penalties, and exceptions cannot be confirmed.
- This bill was introduced in 1906 during Alberta's very first legislative session, meaning it was foundational legislation with no prior provincial framework to build on.
- The bill was introduced alongside similar professional regulation bills (medical profession, dental association, veterinary surgeons), suggesting a coordinated effort to regulate health-related professions at once.
- Historical bills from this era often carried over rules from the previous North-West Territories ordinances, so some provisions may have reflected pre-existing territorial law.
Who's Affected
- Chemists and druggists (pharmacists) practicing in Alberta
- Residents of Alberta purchasing medicines or pharmaceutical products
- Businesses selling drugs or chemical preparations

Summary
Bill 36 was introduced in the very first session of the Alberta Legislative Assembly in 1906, shortly after Alberta became a province. It was designed to regulate the profession of chemists and druggists — the people who prepared and sold medicines and pharmaceutical products at the time. Because the full text of this bill is no longer available online, the specific details of its provisions cannot be confirmed. However, based on similar legislation of the era, it likely established who was legally allowed to practice as a chemist or druggist, set out qualifications or licensing requirements, and may have created a professional body to oversee the trade. This bill was part of a broader effort by Alberta's first legislature to put in place foundational laws for the new province, covering everything from professional regulation to public institutions. It was sponsored by MLA Moore and introduced alongside other professional regulation bills such as those covering the medical profession, dental association, and veterinary surgeons.
