22 articulos hace 1 mes 251

🏛️ Gobierno y Política

  1. Estudio de oleoductos tensiona relaciones entre Alberta y Columbia Británica. Adrian Dix, ministro de Energía de Columbia Británica, criticó a Alberta por divulgar tarde las posibles rutas de oleoductos hacia la costa norte de B.C., descubiertas durante el Global Energy Show de Calgary. Dix desestimó las afirmaciones de haber sido 'tomado por sorpresa', indicando posibles tensiones gubernamentales a largo plazo.
  2. Nuevas fronteras electorales generan controversia. El Premier de Alberta nombró al exdiputado Monte Solberg para ayudar en el proceso de redefinición de límites. El NDP de la oposición lo califica de ilegítimo, sospechando sesgo en la creación de distritos, lo que ha desatado un enfrentamiento político.

El criminólogo Doug King advierte sobre los riesgos para la seguridad pública con potencial de lesiones a transeúntes.

🎨 Comunidad y Cultura

  1. Revisión de la ruta del Tren Ligero Green Line en el centro. La propuesta del concejal Dan McLean para reevaluar la alineación del Tren Ligero Green Line en el centro de Calgary gana impulso. Esto podría remodelar los planes de tránsito para ajustarse mejor a las necesidades urbanas.

🚑 Sucesos y Incidentes
