    The Edmonton Elks - CFL

    EE/Sask is the only game on Saturday so they could easily move it to the afternoon. But this is the CFL, so........ They'll be happy with the 1200 people in attendance and the 4500 watching on tv.

    Churchill Square

    ^ It's okay, I had the exact same thoughts. But I don't hate myself. Just too much scar tissue built up over the years not to think that way any more.

    Edmonton Oilers

    Coming back home with a split. That's what the road team shoots for. Now to take care of business in games 3 and 4. Hopefully a raucous crowd at Rogers can give the lads a huge advantage and provide the edge that we need in such a tight series.

    Jasper Avenue New Vision / Imagine Jasper Avenue

    There was a similar situation a couple years back at Jasper and 99 St. with the ugly wooden poles and overhead wires still sitting there after all of the "beautification" work had been completed. I called 311 and sent pictures and got a call back a week or so later. The lady who called me said...

    Edmonton Oilers

    A good chunk of the team haven't pi$$ed a drop yet in this series.

    Wasn't it the Prospects that moved to Spruce Grove?

    Beaverhills House Park & Michael Phair Park Refresh

    ^ I could be wrong but I thought there was a major rebuild in the 1990s. Beaver Hills Park used to have a number of hills, especially fronting 105 St and Jasper Ave. There was a lot of shady activity happening within the park because these hills, which made the park quite attractive and gave it...

    Downtown Real Estate

    I would love it if Norquest took the Women Building Futures (WBF) organization under its umbrella and then pressed forward with Dub's incredible WBF expansion project.

    Edmonton | Exhibition Lands Redevelopment | ?m | ?s | City of Edmonton

    Fantastic letter @kcantor. I agree with everything you said. I am going to follow up with my own note to Mayor/Council and would love to see as many like minded Edmontonians do the same. We need to take a another long, hard, honest look at this before even one dollar is spent on demolition.

    Edmonton Oilers

    All references of this need to be removed/destroyed before the team sees it. If they do, we're doomed to a first round sweep.

    Edmonton | Rogers Place | ?m | ?s | Katz Group | HOK

    The Hlinka-Gretzky Cup returns to Rogers Place this summer. Multiple games are scheduled daily on Aug 5, 6, 7, 9 and 10. Hopefully this is well attended and a boost to downtown businesses in an otherwise soft spot in the event calendar for Rogers Place/Ice District. Hlinka-Gretzky Cup

    Churchill Square

    How about if we just leave it as Churchill Square and find other parks/places to honor Gomberg/Decore/others?

    Old Strathcona / Whyte Avenue

    ^ Now to turn that building into something special.

    Municipal Politics

    I would be in favor of selling off surplus land/buildings to pay for SPECIFIC high priority or city building type capital projects, like the redevelopment of the Rossdale Power plant and surrounding area, for instance. Perhaps that could be done through a Municipal Development Corporation as...

    Edmonton | Rogers Place | ?m | ?s | Katz Group | HOK

    I think this was posted in another thread, but Rogers Place is hosting a WNBA exhibition game on Sunday May 5; the Los Angeles Sparks vs. the Seattle Storm. This will be only the second time a WNBA game has been played in Canada. I am wondering if this is a test game for the WNBA and the OEG to...

    Edmonton Oil Kings

    The Oil Kings finished off the 2023/24 regular season this past Sunday with 17,720 in attendance; their largest crowd of the season. Despite a rather unsuccessful season on the ice (they finished 27-37-3-1, a 0.426 points % and 18th place in 22 team league) they had an average attendance of...

    Alberta Politics

    $103M to Calgary's Arts Commons from the AB gov't. Announced earlier today. Add this to the $300M + for their new "Events Center". And treatment of the two large cities in the province by its government gets even more lopsided. 🤬🤬🤬 Arts Commons Announcement

    Edmonton Oilers

    For the life of me I just cannot understand why this team refuses to take that next step forward to being top tier NHL team. Win against Minnesota and last night against the flamers (both VERY winnable games) and we are all alone in 2nd place 1 point ahead of Vegas and 8 behind Van with multiple...
