🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. Elections Alberta nagberipika ng 222,000 pirma sa petisyong separatista. Ayon sa ahensya, halos 223,000 pirma ang na-verify mula sa hindi kalayuan na 280,000 pangalan, lampas sa 177,981 na kinakailangan para umusbong ang aksiyon; ang petisyon ay pinawalang-bisa noong Mayo at kasalukuyang inaapelan ng mga petisyonaryo at ng pamahalaang panlalawigan.
  2. Pinangunahan ni Premier Smith ang pagtatanong sa pagdeklara ng mga donor para sa third‑party na 'Forever Canadian'. Sinabi ni Smith sa Global News noong Huwebes na nagulat siya na ayon sa mga opisyal ng Elections, hindi kailangang ideklara ng kampanyang Forever Canadian ang mga donor nito, na nagdulot ng matinding pagtutol mula kay Thomas Lukaszuk, kinatawan ng Forever Canadian, noong Biyernes; sinasabing sinusunod ng kampanya ang mga patakarang binago ng pamahalaang panlalawigan sa ilalim ng Elections Finances and Contributions Disclosure Act.
  3. Binalaan ni Mayor Nenshi ang tumataas na gastos ng referendum sa Alberta. Sinabi ni Nenshi na patuloy na tumataas ang halaga para sa panlalawigang referendum, bagaman hindi nagbigay ang artikulo ng bagong kabuuan, at ang planong tanong ng pamahalaan para sa 19 Oktubre ay nakatali pa rin sa mga desisyon ng korte ukol sa magkasalungat na petisyon.

🎨 Community & Culture

  1. Meals on Wheels Edmonton pinapalakas ang welfare checks habang dumadating ang init at usok. Ang Meals on Wheels Edmonton (serbisyong paghahatid ng pagkain para sa matatanda) na naghahatid ng mahigit 300 na pagkain araw‑araw, ay nagsasabing ginagamit ng mga boluntaryo ang paghahatid para kumustahin ang mga nakatatanda na 65 pataas sa inaasahang matataas na temperatura at usok mula sa wildfire ngayong katapusan ng linggo; binanggit ng ahensya ang hinihinging pamantayan ng Environment Canada (ahensya ng panahon ng Canada) para sa heat‑warning at mga panganib sa particulate.
  2. 'Buddy' ang Cayuga na pato hindi maaring ilipat sa bagong tahanan at malamang hindi mabubuhay sa taglamig ng Alberta. Dumating ang domestikadong Cayuga duck sa Lake Summerside mga tatlong buwan na ang nakalipas, natagpuan na may fishing lure sa tuka, at tumanggi ang mga rescuer ng wildlife na tanggapin siya dahil domestic breed siya na hindi makalipad at malabong makaligtas sa mga taglamig sa Edmonton.
  3. 57‑yard field goal ni Vincent Blanchard naghatid sa Elks sa 36–34 panalo, Edmonton 6–1. Natalo ng Elks (koponang CFL ng Edmonton) ang Saskatchewan 36–34 noong Huwebes sa Mosaic Stadium matapos mag‑pasabog si QB Cody Fajardo ng 510 yard at apat na touchdown; itinaas ng panalong ito ang rekord ng Edmonton sa CFL sa 6–1, ang kanilang pinakamahusay na simula mula pa noong 2017.

💼 Economy & Business

  1. Mga flight attendant ng WestJet bumoto ng 99.4% pabor sa welga; itinakda ang Agosto 2 bilang maagang petsa ng walkout. Iniulat ng CUPE Local 8125 (lokal na unyon) ang 99.4 porsiyentong boto para sa welga ng mga nasa 4,400 miyembro noong 15 Hulyo, at pinapayagan ng WestJet (kompanyang panghimpapawid) ang walang‑bayad na pagbabago o pagkansela para sa mga pasahero na nakareserba mula 30 Hulyo–4 Agosto habang inihahanda ang airline sa posibleng mga abala dahil sa hindi nabayarang mga paghahabol sa trabaho.
  2. Bahagi ng kalsada sa gilid ng Edmonton gumuho dahil sa erosion, nagtaas ng alalahanin ang residente. Iniulat ng isang residente sa kanluran‑hilagang gilid ng lungsod na gumuho ang bahagi ng lokal na kalsada dahil sa erosion, na nagtanong tungkol sa pagpapanatili at ipinahayag ng residente ang isyu sa mga awtoridad ng munisipyo.
