캘거리 주간 다이제스트 (2026-03-30 ~ 2026-04-05)

48 기사 생성됨 1일 전 9
  1. 베어스포우 남부 공급관(Bearspaw South Feeder Main) 9곳 수리가 완료되며 캘거리의 물 사용 제한이 해제되었습니다 — 이 관은 도시 수돗물의 약 60%를 공급하며 교체 사업비는 3억8,100만 달러입니다.

  2. 또 한 번의 봄 눈보라로 캘거리 도로 큰 혼잡 발생: 자정부터 정오 사이 163건의 충돌이 보고됐고 22명이 부상했으며 기상청은 운전자에게 주의 경고를 발령했습니다.

  3. 캘거리 주택 소유주의 재산세가 총 8.1% 오릅니다 — 대부분 주정부 몫 인상(주거 19.8%) 때문이며, 평균 단독주택(평가액 $706,000)은 한 달에 약 $32.25를 더 내게 됩니다.

  4. 캘거리 경찰청(CPS)이 향후 4년치 예산에서 "상당한" 증원·자원 요청을 준비 중입니다 — 예산상 830자리 중 현재 653명 충원, 향후 4년간 약 660명 채용 목표.

  5. 캘거리 남아시아 커뮤니티를 표적으로 한 갈취(엑스토션) 수사에서 1명 기소 — 2025년 1월 이후 41건의 시도 보고, 경찰은 추가 피해자 제보를 촉구합니다.

  6. 스토니 트레일(Stoney Trail) 보행자 사망 사고: McKnight Blvd 인근에서 보행자 사망, 이후 현장 바리케이드를 고속으로 통과한 운전자가 체포돼 위험운전·방해 혐의로 기소(공판 2026-05-13).

  7. Marlborough Mall 부근에서 ‘주의 분산’ 수법으로 노인 여성의 결혼반지·목걸이가 도난 — 경찰은 모르는 사람과 지나치게 가까워지지 말 것을 권고합니다.

  8. 국제 정세로 유가 상승(WTI 약 US$114)·캘거리 휘발유 약 $1.75/L로 치솟자 연료세 완화 요구 재점화 — 알버타 주 유류세는 보통 13¢/L이며 세율 조정은 모니터링 기간 기준으로 결정됩니다.

  9. 알버타 주가 공공도서관에서 15세 이하 아동이 성적으로 노골적인 이미지를 보지 못하도록 규제하는 법안을 발의했습니다 — 해당 자료는 카운터 뒤에 보관하거나 직원 통제로 접근 차단될 수 있으며, 동시에 교사의 정치 중립성 의무를 강화하는 내용도 포함됩니다.

  10. 알버타가 임시 외국인 근로자를 고용하는 사업주 등록제를 도입하는 법안을 제안(2027년 초 시행 목표) — 위반 시 개인 최대 $1,000,000·법인 $1,500,000 벌금 가능.

  11. 주(州) 판사 임명에 대해 주정부의 발언권을 확대하려면 헌법 개정이 필요하다는 알버타의 요구 — 연방과의 갈등 소지.

  12. 알버타 분리(독립) 청원 주도자들이 투표수 10%인 약 177,732건의 서명을 모았다고 주장 — Elections Alberta가 5월 2일까지 확인; 정부는 선거 전후 1년 동안 시민발의 청원을 금지하는 법안도 제안했습니다.

  13. 연방-주 간 MOU(탄소 정책) 합의가 4월 1일 마감에 맞지 않을 가능성 — 탄소가격과 Pathways(탄소포집) 프로젝트 협상이 계속되고 있으며 약 $400억(캐나다 달러) 규모의 친환경 투자 기회가 걸려 있습니다.

  14. 캘거리의 ‘citywide rezoning’ 공청회가 더 길어질 전망 — 현재 526명 발언 신청, 결정은 부활절 이후로 연기될 수 있으며 통과 시 2026-08-04 발효 예정.

  15. Scotia Place 공사로 3월 30일부터 도로 일부 통제 시작: 14th Ave S.E.가 차량·보행자 통행 금지, Stampede(7월) 기간에는 도로 개방 예정.

  16. 캘거리에서 노년층의 식량 불안 증가: 푸드뱅크 이용 노인의 64%가 처음 이용자이며, 노인은 전체 이용자의 약 5%를 차지합니다.

  17. QEII 고속도로 총격 사건으로 Barinder Singh이 사망(3월 14일) — 용의자 두 명(18세 Jimmy Gassner, 23세 Deon Libsekil)이 투옥되어 2급 살인 혐의로 기소되었습니다.

  18. RCMP가 St. Albert에서 발견된 어머니의 시신 사건과 관련해 아기 Braylee의 유해를 계속 수색 중 — 아버지는 체포되어 기소되었습니다.

  19. Lethbridge에서 역사적 규모의 펜타닐 압수: 2.25kg(약 $450,000 상당), 약 22,000회분에 해당 — 49세 여성 체포, 4월 23일 다음 법정.

  20. Artemis II 발사 예정(4월 1–6일): 캐나다인 Jeremy Hansen이 임무전문가로 달 주회 비행에 참여할 가능성, 캘거리 출신 Jenni Gibbons는 예비 승무원으로 대기합니다.

  21. 스포츠: Edmonton Oilers가 시카고를 3-1로 꺾고 연승을 이어가며 신인 Matthew Savoie가 결승골을 넣었고 Connor McDavid는 연속 득점/포인트 행진을 이어가고 있습니다.

  22. 플래그 풋볼이 2028년 올림픽 데뷔 예정 — 쌍둥이 Tyson·Jalen Philpot와 Nathan Rourke 등 CFL 선수들이 캐나다 대표 자격을 노리고 있으며 세계선수권(여름)이 예선 전초전입니다.

  23. 3월 23일 Highland Park의 가정 화재/폭발로 한 어머니가 집과 모든 소지품을 잃었고, 돌아가신 아들의 유골도 소실되어 지역사회의 지원 요청이 이어지고 있습니다.
