🚑 Pagbabalita at Mga Insidente

  1. Tatlo patay, 16 sugatan matapos masunog at magbanggaan ang maraming sasakyan sa Saddletowne Circle N.E. Dalawang bus ng Calgary Transit (serbisyo ng pampublikong sasakyan ng Calgary) at ilang mga kotse ang nagbanggaan bandang 1:00 ng hapon Huwebes sa 800 block ng Saddletowne Circle N.E.; ayon sa pulisya, nagliyab ang mga tangke ng compressed-natural-gas, tatlong pasahero sa ikalawang bus ang natagpuang patay, at 16 ang ginamot, kabilang ang isang pulis na nagligtas ng isang bata.
  2. Lindol na may lakas na 3.7 ni-rattle ang Banff at Canmore. Narinig at naramdaman ang pag-uga sa Banff at Canmore nitong Huwebes; walang naiulat na nasaktan o malalang pinsala sa mga paunang ulat mula sa Parks Canada (ahensya ng pambansang parke) at lokal na awtoridad.

🏛️ Pamahalaan at Politika

  1. Itinakda ang araw ng referendum sa Lunes na may mahigit 1,400 na botohan na bukas. Ang binding referendum ng Alberta ay may 10 tanong at inaasahan ng mga opisyal ang rekord na turnout na 80–85 porsiyento mula sa halos tatlong milyong botante; magsasara ang mga advance voting location Sabado ng gabi at ang oras ng botohan sa Lunes ay 9 umaga–8 gabi.
  2. Hinimok ni Jim Carney ang madla sa Calgary na ‘bumoto na parang nakasalalay dito ang Canada.’ Nagsalita si Carney sa isang rally sa Calgary bago ang Lunes na referendum habang papalapit na ang mga kampanya sa huling mga araw, hinimok ang mataas na turnout sa mga kaganapang ginanap ngayong linggo sa lungsod.
  3. Nagbabala ang mga mananaliksik ng McGill na ang mga kwento online ay maaaring maghasik ng pagtatalo sa bisa ng referendum. Natuklasan ng Media Ecosystem Observatory na walang pagbaba sa mga hindi-tunay na account matapos ang mga ulat ng pag-atake sa mga bot farm ngunit sinabi nilang naitatag ang pundasyon para kuwestiyunin ang botohan sa susunod na linggo.
  4. Magkasamang nangampanya sina Smith at Carney sa Calgary, hinihimok ang pagkakaisa bago ang referendum. Magkasamang nanawagan ang dalawa sa mga Albertan na suportahan ang ugnayang pederal sa isang paglabas sa Calgary ngayong linggo habang papalapit ang lalawigan sa 10-tanong na boto sa Lunes.

💼 Ekonomiya at Negosyo

  1. Inalis ng Alberta ang mga proteksyon ng tirahan para sa endangered greater sage grouse upang suportahan ang industriyal na pag-unlad. Binawi ng probinsya ang mga proteksyon na sumasaklaw sa mahahalagang tirahan ng sage grouse, isang hakbang na iniuugnay ng gobyerno sa pagpapahintulot ng mga proyektong industriyal sa mga apektadong lugar.
  2. Lalaki mula Lethbridge inakusahan ng panlilinlang sa apat na negosyo ng halos $3.5 milyon. Ayon sa mga dokumento ng korte, itinarget ng panlilinlang ang apat na lokal na negosyo, at hinahabol ng mga awtoridad ang mga kasong may kaugnayan sa mga tinatayang pagkalugi na halos $3.5 milyon.

🎨 Komunidad at Kultura

  1. Imbestigasyon ng Parks Canada sa superintendent ng Banff itinuring na mahalaga para sa tiwala ng publiko. Isinasagawa ang pagsisiyasat sa pag-uugali ng superintendent sa Banff National Park; sinabi ng mga eksperto sa mga reporter na ang resulta ng imbestigasyon ay makakaapekto sa kumpiyansa sa mga pampublikong institusyong nangangasiwa sa parke.
  2. Kailangang talunin ng Stampeders ang B.C. Lions sa Sabado para manatiling buhay ang pag-asa sa playoff. Magho-host ang Calgary (8–9) ng B.C. (10–6) sa McMahon Stadium sa regular-season finale; ang panalo ay magpapataas ng record ng Stampeders sa 9–9 at magpapahusay ng kanilang tsansa sa playoff habang iginagalang din ang naka-planong pagreretiro ng kicker na si Rene Paredes.
