Today, we remember the Canadians who left farms, classrooms, and city streets for Vimy Ridge, the beaches of Normandy, the hills of Korea, and the valleys of Kandahar.
Many of them younger than any of us were when we first thought about what we wanted our lives to be.
They didn't get to see the country they defended grow up. We did. The peace, prosperity, and freedom we take for granted each morning were paid for by people who never got to enjoy them.
The best way to honour that debt isn't only to wear a poppy or bow our heads for two minutes. It's to build a Canada worthy of what they gave.
Lest we forget. 🇨🇦
#RemembranceDay2026

Halloween decorations being installed. Our stated goal is scare about 1/3 of attendees to cry or scream. Some will giggle.
For 25 years we have enjoyed a lot of folks visiting. Last few years - more than 2,000.
A lot of candy eh?
Alberta Time is here! ☀️
Starting this weekend, we’re moving to permanent daylight time.
No more changing the clocks twice a year. More evening sunshine, less hassle, and one consistent time year-round!
Heartbreaking news out of Calgary this afternoon. A serious collision between two buses has left multiple people dead and many more injured.
My sincere thoughts are with the families of those who died and with everyone injured.
Our first responders were on scene within minutes and are still working. I thank them for their immediate response, and thank the doctors and hospital staff who are now caring for these patients.
Stan Grad chaired Alberta's air ambulance service for 14 years, on top of building Canada's largest seedstock cattle operation and selling an oil and gas company that made the TSE 300. That's what an Alberta builder actually looks like. Rest well, Stan.

In the past few years I have been to Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, PEI, New Brunswick, Saskatchewan, Alberta, and BC.
The best city to visit is probably Calgary. You can rent a car for cheap and see everything from mountains to badlands to river floats within a one hour drive.
Today, the Calgary Stampede proudly unveiled the 2027 Stampede Poster, ‘Best Seat in the House’, created by 23-year-old Alberta artist Keagan George.
Keagan’s electrifying artwork captures bull rider Hayes Weight of Goshen, Utah, aboard Judge and Jury during the 2025 Calgary Stampede Rodeo, bringing the power, movement and edge-of-your-seat excitement of the Rodeo to life.
Selected through the Calgary Stampede Youth Poster Competition, Keagan is the ninth Alberta youth to have their artwork featured on the official Stampede Poster since the competition began in 2018.
The 2027 Stampede Poster marks the beginning of the countdown to Stampede 2027, taking place July 9-18.

Calgary has the venues, the festivals, the songwriters and the audiences. Now it just needs a push to turn all of that into an even bigger industry.
That is what I went to Nashville to learn about. They did not become the music capital of the world by accident. They built it deliberately over decades, and the people who run it were happy to tell me how.
Calgary can be Nashville North. The talent is already here. Now let’s build it.

The Greatest Outdoor Show on Earth - where champions are remembered forever, and you're exactly where you're supposed to be.
Narrated by Taylor Sheridan.
The greatest outdoor show on earth kicks off this weekend.
Every year, Canadians flock to the Calgary Stampede to celebrate Alberta’s ranching heritage, Indigenous traditions, and the spirit of the West.
Looking forward to spending some time back home in Alberta next week.
