Paint The Province campaign map

The Lawn signs → The Map page is the campaign map for Paint The Province. It shows how many lawn sign requests Albertans have placed — across the province, in your city, and right on your street — so you can see how the campaign is growing and where your community fits in.

The page is read-only. To request signs, install a sign, or visit a center, use the matching entries on the Lawn signs menu.

What the dashboard shows

The page has three sections, top to bottom.

Across Alberta — at a glance (top)

A navy header welcomes you with the headline running total of lawn sign requests across Alberta. Underneath you'll see three quick numbers:

• this week — how many new requests came in over the last seven days.
• communities active — how many of Alberta's postal-code areas already have at least one request.
• homes reached — the share of Alberta homes where a sign has been installed.

There is no map in the header. The page keeps the map in the Your neighbourhood section so there is only one place to read map markers and boundaries.

Your neighbourhood (middle)

A lighter section centred on your part of Alberta. The single View progress for picker at the top decides what the rest of the section measures.

The picker starts on My area (your postal-code area). You can switch to My city, All Alberta, or search any other Alberta city or postal-code area by name. There is no other set of controls — this picker is the only one.

The three quick numbers sit above the map and update with the picker:

• unfulfilled lawn sign requests — people have asked for a lawn sign, but nobody has marked the request fulfilled yet.
• fulfilled lawn sign requests — requests a volunteer has marked fulfilled.
• your hand-offs — how many times you have recorded a fulfilled hand-off yourself.

Each of those numbers has a small info button with a plain-language reminder of what the number means.

Below the numbers is the neighbourhood map. The picker controls the map: when you choose another postal-code area or a city, the red boundary and large marker move to that selected area. Choosing a city fits all of that city's postal-code areas in the map.

The selected marker shows two lines:

• unfulfilled lawn sign requests
• fulfilled lawn sign requests

The Your hand-offs card lists every time you have recorded giving lawn signs to someone — the date, the postal-code area, and how many signs. It adds up to a friendly total like "You've handed off 12 signs over 4 drop-offs." Only you can see your own list, and it shows the area and count only — never anyone's name, email, or phone. If you haven't recorded any hand-offs yet, the card says so and explains where they'll appear.

Across Alberta — the details (bottom)

At the top of this section are the big campaign totals:

• Lawn sign requests — every lawn sign request record from the Forever Canadian website. The note underneath splits the total into unfulfilled and fulfilled requests.
• Signs handed off — how many real lawn signs our volunteers have physically given out so far. These are signs that have actually left the box and are out in neighbourhoods.

Below the big totals is a smaller Activity group:

• Unfulfilled requests — requests that have not been marked fulfilled yet.
• Hand-off drop-offs — how many separate times a volunteer recorded giving signs to someone, and how many volunteers have handed off at least one sign.

The request and hand-off cards use small info buttons. Hover over one, or move to it with the keyboard and stop, and a short plain-language explanation appears.

Three more headline tiles repeat other useful totals: Lawn sign requests, Communities active, and Homes reached.

Underneath the tiles, the Top communities leaderboard ranks Alberta postal-code areas by request total, biggest first. Each row shows the city and postal-code area, the running total, a progress bar, and a "plus N" weekly delta on the right. If your own area is on the list, its row is highlighted.

The Your area's rank in Alberta card to the right shows exactly where your postal-code area sits in the rankings. If you haven't set your postal code yet, the card invites you to add one.

The page ends with a See all N postal-code areas link that opens a plain-language table covering every postal-code area in Alberta. The columns are Area, City, Requests, Homes reached, and Share of Alberta. You can read the table with a screen reader and tab through it from the keyboard — it doubles as the accessible alternative to the map.

If your numbers look empty

If you haven't added an Alberta postal code yet, the page shows a small note above the picker asking you to set one in your profile, and your own area's rank card invites you to add one. Once your postal code is on file, the page will know where to centre your view.
