A new bridge may have to factor in future use for high speed and/or regional rail. Not sure how this affects the cost or funding for it.

Really, you don't say younger = less boomers? However, a reputable poll in January 2026 had the UCP and NDP within 2%. So, I suppose it depends on which poll you choose.

This is very good news. Interesting how we have stealthily considerably surpassed the previous 2015 high levels while Calgary has only got back to around them. I suspect some of the companies in Edmonton are smaller, so do not get as much media attention and of course Edmonton in general gets...

Whatever the cost is now, does any one really believe the price will be lower in the future? I doubt it.

It would be quite a boost for St. Albert, which is one of the oldest communities in the Edmonton area, to also be the first one to get LRT.

As our late esteemed QE II once said, some recollections may vary. I feel they likely did initially intend to build towers, but at some point realized it did not make sense except to keep it to help move the rest of the project ahead.

I also have to wonder about this, the Mayor usually seems more articulate and sensible or at least did before the election.

You have a very good point. Obviously, most people who have jobs downtown are there during the day, people who live there may or may not be there during the day, depending on where they work or go to school. So it may not be 24-7. Although, I feel the people most likely to want to live...

Yes. I happened to talk to an employee of one of the businesses in this area and they said something about temporarily relocating near to their existing space, not sure exactly what that means or if others will also be doing this too.

Unfortunately, a lot of what the city does is at cross purposes with improving downtown or not helpful. For instance, they extended paid parking days and hours, then got rid of the machines that were easier some people to use. There are no regular police patrols in the parts of downtown I...

Yes, we are so badly treated and doing so poorly that many people elsewhere in Canada apparently still want to move here. Go figure.

They also used to have a location in City Centre around a decade or so ago. I realize retail is a tough business these days, but this doesn't seem to be their first bankruptcy. I wonder about the people running some of these companies which took over from the original ownership.

It is not that, he is overall a very good business person and seems successful with what he takes on, even quite different things from his initial business, like development and sports. Before he took over the Oilers, they were not doing so well financially but they have really become one of...

Interesting. Lest we forget he also served under a PM who had no experience in elected politics before he became party leader. Also that PM integrated Canada much closer to the US, which is leading to some of the problems we have now. So perhaps his cheap shots about errors by a rookie PM...

They should. I have a feeling they will be outed, whether they do it themselves or by someone else.
