Residents of an Alberta town that has banned alcohol sales for the past century have weighed in on a bylaw proposal to change that.
"Everybody deserves a right to celebrate and call whatever you want a moral victory," said Darren Atwood, the founder of the group Cardston Citizens for Positive Progress."If we had a referendum it would have been binding," he said. "Everybody's voice counts and they should be heard."The community was founded in 1887 by members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints who travelled from Utah via the Macleod-Benton Trail.
At the end of the meeting, Cardston's mayor Maggie Kronen said a decision may come in the next few weeks.
