Summary

This is a historical bill from Alberta's very first legislative session in 1906. It amended an earlier North-West Territories ordinance from 1901 that had originally established Red Deer as an incorporated town. When Alberta became a province in 1905, it inherited laws from the North-West Territories, and bills like this one were used to update or modify those inherited laws to suit the new province's needs. The full text of the bill is no longer available online, so the specific changes it made to Red Deer's town charter cannot be confirmed. Based on similar bills from the same session, it likely dealt with matters such as town governance, boundaries, powers of local council, or municipal administration. This type of bill was common in Alberta's early legislative sessions as the new provincial government worked to update and adapt the legal framework it had inherited from the North-West Territories era.
