EDMONTON – A petitioner looking to oust an Alberta cabinet ministers says she has a huge task ahead, as the campaign nears its deadline for signature collection.
Jenny Yeremiy says she thinks the petition has garnered 6,000 signatures since the end of October.
It needs another 10,000 in the next two weeks to force a constituency-wide vote on whether Education Minister Demetrios Nicolaides should lose his seat.
She says a big push for signatures is planned but getting that many would be a major accomplishment.
The petition was the first of 26 launched against members of Alberta’s legislature in the final months of 2025.
The campaign against Nicolaides is the only one with a January deadline.
