20 artikulo 2 linggo ang nakalipas 177

🚨 Crime & Public Safety

  1. Driver charged over 2025 Temple crash that killed a pedestrian. Inireklamo ng pulisya ng Calgary (lungsod sa Alberta) ang isang 26-anyos noong Aug. 11, 2026 sa kasong criminal dangerous driving causing death at dalawang bilang ng causing bodily harm matapos ang aksidenteng naganap noong July 21, 2025 sa 52 St. NE malapit sa Temple Road na ikinamatay ng isang babae nasa 50s; nakatakda ang pagpapakita ng akusado sa korte sa Aug. 28.
  2. Masked, armed robbery at Canyon Meadows restaurant under investigation. Ayon sa CPS, dalawang naka-maskarang lalaki na may baril ang pumasok sa Austin’s Bar and Grill sa 11625 Elbow Drive SW bago maghatinggabi noong Aug. 10 at tumakas sa isang madilim na SUV matapos kumuha ng pera; hinihiling ng pulisya sa sinumang may CCTV o dashcam footage na makipag-ugnay.

🏛️ Government & Politics

  1. City stops running Home Services for Seniors; many Calgary seniors lose eligibility. Itinigil ng City of Calgary (lungsod sa Alberta) ang lokal na pagpapatakbo ng Home Services for Seniors pagkatapos ng mga pagbabago sa eligibility ng lalawigan na epektibo July 1, at inililipat ngayon ang mga kliyente sa Alberta’s Special Needs Assistance for Seniors (SNA); sinabi ni Mayor Jeromy Farkas sa Global News na itinigil ng lungsod ang serbisyo dahil pinalala ng mga pagbabago ng lalawigan ang pagiging kumplikado at tumaas ang gastos sa munisipyo.
  2. Alberta RCMP to begin wearing navy blue shirts in detachments Aug. 15. Sisimula ng Alberta RCMP (Royal Canadian Mounted Police sa lalawigan ng Alberta) ang pagsusuot ng navy blue shirts sa mga detachment simula Aug. 15 bilang bahagi ng pambansang pagbabago na nagsimula noong Oktubre; nagbabala ang Mounties tungkol sa posibleng pagkalito habang nagpapatupad nito at pinapayuhan ang publiko na humingi ng ID mula sa mga opisyal o tumawag sa non-emergency detachment lines kung may alinlangan.

💼 Economy & Business

  1. Wet summer has Alberta pumpkin growers behind schedule after 33 cm of July rain. Nag-ulat ang Somerset Farms sa Parkland County na mga pananim nila ay nasa humigit-kumulang isang buwan na huli at nanganganib ang karaniwang ani na mga 25,000 pumpkins matapos masobrahan ng ulan noong July na umabot sa 33 cm, na nagtakip sa bunga ng mga dahon at nagdulot ng pooling water.
  2. Alberta seeking proposals for gambling addiction services funded by iGaming revenue. Gagamitin ng lalawigan ang 1% ng regulated iGaming revenue para sa social responsibility at kukunin din ang 20% cut mula sa mga operator; naghahanap ang Mental Health and Addiction Ministry ng mga serbisyo na lampas sa Recovery Alberta, kabilang ang bed-based programs.

🏈 Sports

  1. Stampeders host B.C. Lions Thursday as Calgary sits 4-5. Maglalaro ang Calgary Stampeders (koponan ng Calgary) laban sa B.C. Lions (koponan ng British Columbia) sa McMahon Stadium (stadium sa Calgary) sa Huwebes; ang Calgary ay may 4-5 record habang ang B.C. ay 3-5—naghahangad ang Stampeders na pagandahin ang home record matapos isang panalo lang sa sariling bayan; sinabi ng coach/GM Dave Dickenson na kailangan ng koponan ng panalo sa McMahon para umakyat sa West Division standings.
  2. Justin Rankin’s rushing drop tied to reduced carries, not form. May 651 rushing yards si Justin Rankin sa 101 carries na may pitong TD ngayong season, at apat sa kanyang limang 100-yard games ay nangyari kapag nagkaroon siya ng 10+ carries—nagpapakita ito na ang workload ang pangunahing dahilan ng kamakailang pagbaba ng kanyang totals.
