🚨 How to search for Parker on your property 🚨

Many people have asked what we mean when we ask residents to "check their property." In this video, Sergeant Chris Martin demonstrates how to properly search areas where Parker may seek shelter.

What might not make sense to you could make sense to Parker.

Please thoroughly check your own property and any public spaces you are permitted to access. Do not enter or search private property without permission.

Parker is known to enter accessible buildings and can lock doors behind him. Check homes, garages, sheds, vehicles, trailers, RVs, storage areas, under decks, between fences & hedges, & anywhere a child may seek shelter from the heat.

Parker is neurodivergent & non-verbal & may become frightened if approached by strangers. If you see him, do not approach. Keep him in sight & call 911 immediately.

@RogersHelps When I log on to Roger Xfinity, it allows me to log on, sends me the 2-part validation to text and then says whoops something went wrong and won’t access the account

[SMB🇨🇦 @boomrs]

@Rogers I recently upgraded my plan, and now can’t access subscriptions through Roger’s due to what you are telling me is a software glitch and there is no work around. I have spent hours with your help desk! Anyone else??

[SMB🇨🇦 @boomrs]

@RogersHelps Not working and not helpful!! There is a glitch and no one at Rogers can help!!

[SMB🇨🇦 @boomrs]

@RogersHelps Yes I can log in to Myrogers

[SMB🇨🇦 @boomrs]

@RogersHelps It was an upgrade to faster internet that included Disney, Netflix and Apple, but the log in for Xfinity won’t work, can’t add a new email as one is already associated to the account. Your advisors said it’s a software issue.

Dear Fellow Albertans,

This letter is written not as a partisan, but as an emergency physician who has cared for more than 100,000 Albertans, a former MLA, and someone who has devoted a working life to this province.

Across Alberta, the strain is obvious. Housing is scarce. Emergency rooms are overcrowded. Schools are stretched. The cost of living weighs heavily on families. Anxiety about the future is real and justified. This is not anger. It is concern, because moments like this demand leadership.

When people are under pressure, leadership is not just about solutions, but about direction: an honest explanation of what is actually going wrong, and reassurance about who we are as a society while we fix it.

In recent weeks, Alberta’s challenges have been framed by the Premier, Danielle Smith, in a way that has left many people angry, not at systems or long-standing policy failures, but at immigrants and other governments. That is deeply troubling.

The frustration people feel is understandable. But much of that anger is being misdirected at immigrants. With the exception of Indigenous peoples, all Albertans come from families that arrived here seeking opportunity.

Immigrants did not break Alberta’s healthcare system or tear up family doctor contracts. They did not close hospital beds or cancel planned hospital capacity. They did not under build housing, assisted living, long-term care, or schools. They did not dismantle community care. Politicians did.

Every day in emergency departments, the consequences are visible: acute-care beds occupied by patients who should be at home or in long-term care; ERs functioning as inpatient wards; and population growth encouraged without matching investments in primary care, continuing care, and hospital capacity.

In 1992, Alberta had approximately 11,700 hospital beds. Today, with nearly double the population and a much older demographic, we have roughly 8,800. This is not an Ottawa or immigration problem. It is a planning and capacity problem.

Many of the people caring for seniors, staffing hospitals, and holding the healthcare system together today are newcomers themselves. Blaming them delays real solutions and divides communities.

That lesson is personal. Growing up as a newcomer involved violence, black eyes and broken bones, and learning early what happens when fear is tolerated and adults look away. Home was not always safe either, shaped by alcoholism and domestic violence. Those experiences leave marks.

What mattered most was a mother who taught that anger shrinks a life, while forgiveness, discipline, and service strengthen it, and that opportunity carries an obligation to give back. That belief led to decades in emergency medicine, the training of thousands of doctors, and public service at personal cost.

Those experiences lead to a clear conclusion. Albertans deserve leadership that lowers the temperature, not raises it. Leadership that fixes systems, not finds scapegoats. Leadership that takes responsibility for planning failures and invests in capacity to match growth.

For these reasons, Alberta needs a change in direction and ultimately, a change in leadership, so the province can unite around practical fixes rather than division.

This is not about racism. It is about judgment, competence, and the ability to govern responsibly during difficult times. Alberta needs leadership that brings people together and focuses on solutions, not blame.

Premiers Lougheed, Klein and Stelmach have led through very difficult times and would not take our province to this sharp edge.

Albertans are much better than this.

I am a Canadian, an Albertan and I am an immigrant.

God bless Alberta.
