🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Alberta maglalabas ng RFP ngayong taglagas para sa proyekto ng mabilis na riles na mag-uugnay sa Calgary, Red Deer at Edmonton. Sinabi ni Premier Danielle Smith na ire-refer ng Ottawa ang proyekto sa federal major projects office kapag napili na ang isang proponent; inaasahan ng lalawigan na makapili ng proponent pagsapit ng Abril 2027 at hihinto ang serbisyo sa dalawang pinakamalaking paliparan ng Alberta.

  2. Tinatayang 658,000 kahilingan para sa espesyal na balota (ipapadala sa koreo) ang naitala para sa plebisitong Okt. 19. Ulat mula sa Elections Alberta (awtoridad sa eleksyon ng Alberta) ang nagsasabing humigit-kumulang 658,000 ang kahilingan, halos 100,000 ang naaprubahan at naitala bilang bumoto, at nakakuha na sila ng 34,000 na mga election worker laban sa target na hindi bababa sa 60,000.

  3. Mga tagapagtaguyod humihiling ng pederal na imbestigasyon sa mga batas tungkol sa trans sa Alberta at Saskatchewan sa Ottawa. Humiling ang ilang grupo sa mga MP na imbestigahan ang mga patakarang panlalawigan na nag-aatas ng pahintulot ng magulang para sa mga estudyanteng wala pang 16 na baguhin ang pangalan o panghalip at ang pagbabawal ng Alberta sa mga trans na atleta na 12 pataas; ginamit ng parehong premier ang notwithstanding clause, at ipinaliwanag ni Premier Danielle Smith na mga hakbang na para sa karapatan ng magulang at kaligtasan ang mga batas.

  4. Sabi ng dating PM ng U.K. na si David Cameron na hindi katulad ng Brexit ang boto para sa secesyon ng Alberta. Sa pagsasalita sa isang energy leadership conference sa Calgary, sinabi ni Cameron na ang diskusyon tungkol sa paghiwalay ng Alberta ay tungkol sa kinabukasan ng isang bansa kaysa sa pagiging kasapi sa isang samahang pangkalakalan at nagbabala na may hindi inaasahang lagay ang mga plebisito.

  5. Ikalawang tinedyer inaresto sa Alberta na may kaugnayan sa online na recruitment network na '764'. Sinabi ng RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police — pambansang pwersa ng pulisya ng Canada) na inaresto ang 17 anyos mula Lethbridge noong Sept. 3 at kinasuhan ng mga krimeng may kaugnayan sa terorismo, child sexual abuse and exploitation material (CSAEM) at kalupitan sa hayop na konektado sa network na 764, na idinagdag ng Canada bilang isang teroristang entidad noong Disyembre 2025.

  6. Nagsimula na ang mga lalawigan ng roll‑out para sa bakuna kontra trangkaso at COVID‑19 para sa taglagas 2026 at tinukoy na ang mga prayoridad na grupo. Patuloy na mariing nirerekomenda ng NACI (National Advisory Committee on Immunization — pambansang komite ng payo sa bakuna) ang mga bakuna para sa mga nasa 65 pataas, mga health-care worker at mga residente ng long-term care habang pinapayuhan ding ialok ang programa sa sinuman na anim na buwan pataas; sisimulan ng Ontario ang bakuna para sa high-risk simula Sept. 28.
