https://www.linkedin.com/feed/update/urn:li:activity:6932666939492237312/ While its eternally frustrating to see the success of the province being synonymous with the success of Calgary touted by the UCP again, the data in these reports is not even close for Edmonton. $18M VC capital raised in...

As an investment banker, I'd love to get a look at his project cash flows and returns just given how long it takes him to accomplish anything. At a very high-level, if he were to speed up his projects at a more comparable pace to what other similar developments take, I can only imagine how much...

https://globalnews.ca/news/8822300/edmonton-city-council-property-taxes/ Here is a thought, instead of relying on the everyday person, photo radar, or transit for revenue, why not actively try to recruit more business and corporations to the city? I read somewhere (I cannot find it) that...

Hey, but we got Swoop to Ottawa 👏👏👏 I understand that WestJet and Onex's strategy is to pump as much out of Calgary as they can. But to have both Air Canada and WestJet stuff 16 weekly flights to London while Edmonton cannot secure one is a real testament to why this has absolutely nothing to...

My addition in bold

I truly believe and would be willing to bet that there are more attacks on a daily basis than what you see in the news. What you see reported in the news are only attacks that are actually making headlines but if you filter through Twitter you can see everyday transit users that have documented...

With all do respect to Tom, I hope the successful candidate brings more clout and experience than having previously worked at the Halifax airport. YEG seriously needs to step up its air service game (and I am not talking ULCC routes) to destinations like ORD, London, DFW, New York, etc. and work...

I've said this before but I really hope these agreements and all this activity is also leading to companies looking to relocate in the area to support their hydrogen projects and activity. We obviously have the inputs, the infrastructure, the raw materials, but we also have the human capital and...

The premier also spoke about a $50 million investment over the next four years to create the Clean Hydrogen Centre of Excellence. The centre will be a “pillar in Alberta’s Hydrogen Roadmap” and “will bring together industry, researchers and small businesses,” according to a government release...

What an unfortunate attitude. If Rome or Boston or London had that attitude those cities would've turned over their historic stock 10 times by now. Your argument is flawed because more often than not in Edmonton nothing a lot more exciting replaces these historic buildings. Look no further than...

Thats too bad because they should both be redirecting their energy towards Regency and Raj Duhnna

Edmonton has had a very consistently unfortunate history when it comes to air service. Stretching back to the demise then acqusition of WardAir, which was acquired by Canadian Airlines based in Calgary, which was acquired by Air Canada and has maintained that base in Calgary ever since, the...

I'd argue we do have the market. JW and Le Germain serve a similar market and the JW has proven that there is that market in Edmonton that was/has been underserved. And Le Germain hotels are typically smaller in size than JWs. Either way, even an ALT or other boutique hotel would be welcome...

Perhaps Edmonton will finally get a Le Germain or ALT branded hotel since Edmonton is literally the only major Canadian city without either of those hotels. But as said above, the track record, or lack of track record, of this developer does not demonstrate any previous success of developing a...

Have these pictures been tweeted to Sohi, City of Edmonton and DBA? The more that pictures like these are tweeted out, perhaps repeated exposure will finally get the attention of some one who cares to make a difference at the top.

I agree and by extension have noticed that some Edmonton companies arent even portrayed as Edmonton companies. For example, I have seen AIMCo advertisements with the picture of downtown Calgary...they dont even have an office in Calgary. Likewise with Capital Power, and I recall reading an...

I will never for life of me understand the concept that any provincial conservative party which has typically been rooted in Calgary would always favour Calgary and rarely if ever have considered Edmonton a serious candidate for driving the province forward. But an NDP party which arguably is...
