Premier Danielle Smith says she is taking steps to keep Albertans warm this winter while keeping their utility bills low.

A new report says when the province deregulated electricity generation in 2001, it forced Albertans to pay billions more for their power.

Mikael Pyyhtia scored his first NHL goal, and the Columbus Blue Jackets whipped the Edmonton Oilers 6-1 on Monday night for their second straight home win.

The Edmonton Public School Board estimates a new Alberta government bill will drive up the price of its next election by $1.7 million.

The Alberta government introduced its promised amendment to the provincial Bill of Rights on the first day of the legislature’s fall sitting on Monday, a move Premier Danielle Smith said will “strengthen” human rights protections and “ensure our province remains one of the freest societies in the world.”
