[Rural Municipalities of Alberta @RuralMA]

What is rural, really? This question is not necessarily simple to answer but it is a vitally important one.

While wide open spaces and low population density are indeed characteristics of many rural areas, we lose so much context and understanding when those alone anchor our definition.

In conjunction with our spring convention, RMA launched our new “Rural Is…” campaign that seeks to broaden the scope of the definition of what it means to be “rural.”

We’ve focused our lens on seven key characteristics that we believe help define rural, including: local solutions, planning, perseverance, grit, foundation, connection, and resourcefulness.

Winter or snow tires are specially designed for low temps and snowy/icy conditions we experience in Alberta. They provide better traction than regular or all-season tires.❄️ 🚗

Winter tires are a sound investment. Learn more at: https://t.co/oFc9aOfxdA

REMEMBER: Fire bans can happen at any time of year – not just during Fire Permit season. Please visit our website (https://t.co/Jq2CSFa7Xy) or https://t.co/E80AGjh2WM for the current information.

FIRE BAN LIFTED | Thanks to the moisture from the recent snow, we have removed the Fire Ban and all fire restrictions in Lacombe County. While this change reflects improved conditions, residents are urged to exercise extreme caution and prioritize fire prevention at all times.

[Lacombe County @LacombeCounty]

Effective Nov. 3, a complete fire ban is in effect, and no fireworks permits will be issued. We have upgraded the current Fire Advisory to a Fire Ban due to several recent large fires, a continued lack of moisture, & persistent windy conditions.
