🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Ulat: Maaaring umabot ng hanggang $170 bilyon ang gastos kung hiwalayin ang Alberta sa unang limang taon. Isang ulat mula sa University of Calgary School of Public Policy na iniutos ng pamahalaan ng Alberta ang nagtaya ng gastos mula $50 bilyon hanggang $170 bilyon sa unang limang taon at nagbabala na ang isang “mahihirap” na senaryo ay maaaring magpababa ng GDP ng 10.1% at magbawas ng karaniwang sahod ng manggagawa ng humigit-kumulang $5,500 sa loob ng limang taon.

  2. Sabi ni Preston Manning na maling tinatawag na separatista si Danielle Smith sa mga botohan. Sinabi ng tagapagtatag ng Reform movement na siya ay “naguguluhan” dahil ipinapakita ng ilang botohan sa Ontario na mga 60% ng mga botante ang tumitingin kay Premier Danielle Smith bilang separatista; plano niyang mag-host ng virtual forum na "Alberta and the West" pagsisimula Sabado kung saan magsasalita si Smith tungkol sa soberanya ng probinsya.

  3. Nagbababala ang pulisya tungkol sa hindi bababa sa 20 na "distraction"-style na pagnanakaw na tumatarget sa mga nakatatandang babaeng South Asian mula noong Aug. 19. Ayon sa Edmonton Police Service, dumadaan ang mga magnanakaw sa mga kapitbahayan, nakikipag-usap sa mga nakatatanda at kung minsan ay pinipilit tanggalin ang mga alahas; inuri ng mga imbestigador ang mga kamakailang insidente bilang pagnanakaw (robbery) at hindi simpleng pagnanakaw lamang (theft) dahil ginamit ang puwersa o pagbabanta, at wala pang naulat na seryosong pinsala.

  4. Babae mula Sherwood Park ang nag-donate ng bahagi ng kaniyang atay at kalaunan ng bato para sa estranghero at kaibigan. Nag-donate si Meghan Rozema ng bahagi ng atay noong 2021 para sa isang sanggol at pagkatapos ay nagplano ng pagpapagawad ng bato matapos ang dalawang taong paghihintay; sinabi niya sa Global News na unang nakipag-ugnayan siya sa Give Life Alberta noong 2018 tungkol sa buhay na donasyon at sinabi sa kanya na maaari siyang mag-donate muna ng tisyu ng atay bago magbigay ng bato.

  5. Nakita ng mga driver sa Edmonton ang presyo ng gasolina malapit sa $1.81 kada litro matapos mawalan ng kuryente ang isang refinery sa Illinois. Iniulat ng Global News na tumaas ang presyo ng hanggang $0.30 sa ilang lokasyon, may mga istasyon sa Edmonton na nasa humigit-kumulang $1.81/L at sa Calgary $1.84/L matapos mawalan ng kuryente ang Exxon Mobil Joliet refinery; tinantya ni Dan McTeague ng Canadians for Affordable Energy na nagdagdag ang outage ng humigit-kumulang $0.18/L para sa gasolina at $0.24–$0.25/L para sa diesel.

🏈 Sports

  1. Nagbukas ang training camp ng Oilers sa gitna ng kontrobersiya tungkol sa pag-sign kay Alex Formenton at pagkuha kay Mike Babcock bilang coach. Nilagdaan ng Edmonton Oilers si Alex Formenton sa isang one-year US$850,000 na kontrata at itinalaga si Mike Babcock bilang head coach noong Hunyo; sinabi ng GM na si Stan Bowman na isinagawa ng club ang legal na due diligence at kinilala ang isang petisyon na may higit sa 60,000 pirma at planong protesta bago ang unang home game.

  2. Bibisita ang Ottawa (0-12) sa Calgary habang magsisimula si McLeod Bethel-Thompson; desperadong kailangan ng panalo ng Stampeders (5-8). Binibigyang-diin ng pagkakatugma sa CFL ang 18-game losing streak ng Ottawa mula pa noong 2025 at ang posisyon ng Calgary bilang pang-lima sa West, apat na puntos ang agwat sa ikatlong pwesto na hawak ng Winnipeg (7-6) at B.C. (7-6); kailangan ng Calgary ng pagtatapos sa top three o puntos na kalamangan laban sa ikatlong pwesto sa East para makapasok sa playoffs.
