Summary
This is a historical private bill from Alberta's very first legislative session in 1906. It amended the original North-West Territories ordinance from 1901 that had established Cardston as an incorporated town. When Alberta became a province in 1905, it inherited laws from the North-West Territories, and bills like this one updated or modified 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 Cardston's town charter cannot be determined from existing records. Based on similar bills from the same session, it likely dealt with local governance matters such as town boundaries, municipal powers, taxation authority, or administrative structures. This bill was sponsored by a member named Woolf and was one of several private bills in that session dealing with the incorporation or amendment of charters for Alberta towns and cities, including Red Deer, Medicine Hat, Lethbridge, and Calgary.
