28 artikulo 2 oras ang nakalipas 13

🏛️ Pamahalaan at Pulitika

  1. Inaprubahan ng konseho ang malalaking taas sa singil sa tubig sa susunod na apat na taon. Pinayagan ng city council ang mga pagtaas na aabot sa halos 20% para sa inuming tubig, 15.2% para sa wastewater at 5.8% para sa stormwater taun-taon mula 2027 hanggang 2030, para pondohan ang 6.5 bilyong dolyar ng Canada na programang kapital para sa pag-renew ng imprastruktura at pagpapalawak ng kapasidad.

  2. Ipatutupad ng lungsod ang antas-apat na paghihigpit sa paggamit ng tubig simula Nob. 4 para sa koneksyon ng feeder-main. Ang huling koneksyon ng Bearspaw South Feeder Main ang maguudyok ng apat na linggong ipagbabawal ang pag-gamit ng tubig sa labas simula Nob. 4; hiniling nina Mayor Jeromy Farkas at ang administrasyon sa mga residente at mga venue na bawasan ang paggamit sa loob ng bahay habang tinatapos ng mga crew ang piping at flushing.

  3. Humihiling ang mga konsehal ng pansamantalang moratorium sa bagong mga rezoning para sa mga data-centre. Isang mosyon mula kay Ward 2 Coun. Jennifer Wyness, na sinuportahan ni Mayor Jeromy Farkas at ng apat na konsehal, ang humihiling sa administrasyon na ipahinto muna ang bagong aplikasyon ng rezoning at gumawa ng malinaw na data-centre land-use district pagsapit ng Marso, habang pinag-aaralan ng lungsod ang epekto sa municipal na imprastruktura.

  4. Nagbukas ng imbestigasyon ang komisyoner ng privacy sa paglabag sa tip-platform ng Crime Stoppers. Inilunsad ng Office of the Privacy Commissioner ang pagsisiyasat sa Navigate360 matapos iulat ng kumpanyang Amerikano ang pag-access sa data mula Nob. 21, 2025 hanggang Mar. 5, 2026 na posibleng naglantad ng mga pangalan, address at social-security numbers na ginagamit ng mga programa ng Crime Stoppers.

  5. Ginagamit na sa mga linya ng harapan sa Ukraine ang wound gel ng kompanyang Calgary na NanoSALV. Sinabi ng NanoTess na ang NanoSALV, na inaprubahan ng Health Canada noong 2022 at nadevelop na may pondo mula sa DND, ay mula Hunyo nang ginamit para gamutin ang humigit-kumulang 6,000 sugatang sundalo at sibilyan at maaaring ihatid ng drone at gamiting ng mga gumagamit na may minimal na pagsasanay.

  6. Pamilya ng sundalong malubhang nasunog sa sunog sa CFB Wainwright nagsalita mula sa publiko. Inilarawan nina Cheryl Ramage at mga kamag-anak ang pagkaantala sa abiso matapos ang sunog sa base noong Okt. 17 na pumatay ng apat at nagsugat ng 39; ang kanilang anak na si Liam ay nagtamo ng malalang paso at inkwento ng pamilya na sinabihan sila tungkol sa detalye ng next-of-kin sa kalagitnaan ng gabi.

🏈 Palakasan

  1. Oilers winasak ang Flames 4-0 habang nagtalaga si Tristan Jarry ng 24-save shutout. Naputol ng Edmonton ang dalawang-laro nilang sunod-sunod na talo sa mga goal nina Joseph, Ekholm, Kapanen at Formenton; nag-ambag ng dalawang assist si Connor McDavid para palawakin ang kaniyang streak ng points sa pagbubukas ng season sa 13 laro at nanguna sa NHL na may 36 points.

  2. Pinalawig ng Elks ang kontrata ng head coach Mark Kilam hanggang 2029 matapos ang pinakamahusay na season mula 2015. Pinamunuan ni Kilam, 47, ang Edmonton sa West Division-best na 13-5 record at 8-1 home mark noong 2026, kaya pinirmahan siya ng GM hanggang sa CFL season ng 2029.

  3. Tatlo ang itinanghal bilang CFL Most Outstanding Player finalists: Alexander, Philpot, Fajardo. Inanunsyo bilang finalists para sa George Reed award sina Davis Alexander (5,257 yards, 35 TDs), Tyson Philpot (124 catches, 1,809 yards) at Cody Fajardo (4,788 yards, 25 TDs).

  4. Hindi makalalaro ang winger ng Leafs na si Kirill Marchenko nang hindi tiyak ang panahon dahil sa lower-body injury. Umalis si Marchenko, 26, sa laro ng Toronto noong Okt. 26 sa Calgary at mawawalan siya ng hindi bababa sa isang linggo; nakalista rin ang Maple Leafs na si John Tavares ay week-to-week matapos ang pinsalang natamo noong Okt. 15.
