Levels of government often work together to achieve a goal. As Mayor, Amarjeet Sohi has been busy expressing the City's needs to our government partners through letters, calls and numerous meetings.  Mayor Sohi has the duty to write to governments and organizations on behalf of City Council and all Edmontonians. But he also writes on specific issues and advocates to all levels of government for action that will make our city better for everyone. See the official correspondence below:
