This episode originally aired on August 10, 2020: This week on Terra Informa, Sonak Patel and Skylar Lipman, joined by Morrigan Simpson-Marran from the Pembina Institute and Daniel Schiffner from the University of Alberta, discuss orphan wells in Alberta.The evidence of oil and gas development on Alberta's landscape appears in various forms across the province. Much of oil and gas extraction requires drilling a well into the ground to reach subterranean fossil fuels. Under provincial regulations, these wells are supposed to be reclaimed once they reach the end of their productive lifespan. But in some cases, reclamation doesn't happen, leaving a substantial number of wells dotted across the Albertan landscape.How many orphaned wells are there in Alberta? How does a well become 'orphaned', and why are they a problem? We find out the answers to these questions in this week's episode.Download program log here. ★ Support this podcast ★

Ahead of the Jets golf tournament we hear from the Albertan as he gets set for a big 2025-26 campaign.

Prime Minister Mark Carney's first five “nation-building” projects are out — but there's no oil pipeline, at least not yet. Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's unusually upbeat response raised eyebrows, suggesting she may know something the rest of us don't. Both she and Carney hint that bigger announcements could come by year's end.West of Centre host Kathleen Petty is back to dissect the politics behind the nudge-nudge, wink-wink with Zain Velji of The Strategists podcast, conservative strategist Amber Ruddy, and Toronto Star journalist Alex Boyd.Together, they dig into what Carney's cautious list means for Alberta, the federal government, and where it leaves Conservative leader Pierre Poilievre.In the second half, Parti Québécois leader Paul St-Pierre Plamondon joins the conversation to explore why Alberta and Quebec may be more alike than different when it comes to their battles with Ottawa. Plamondon, who hopes to be Quebec's next premier, has pledged to hold another referendum on separation by 2030 if his party forms government. After all, what's more Albertan than obsessing about Quebec?

How do we build stronger, safer, and more prosperous communities across Alberta? In this special episode of The Brief, guest host Lily Dupuis sits down with Murray Cunningham, President & CEO of Scott Builders, and Michael (Mike) Brown, President & CEO of Trico Homes. Together, Murray and Mike co-chair the Business Council of Alberta's Task Force on Business Priorities for Alberta's Local Governments, which provided a foundation for BCA's newest report, Municipal Matters, focusing on bold recommendations for the future of our cities, towns, and communities. Murray and Mike share their own career journeys to the C-suite, what inspired the creation of this task force, and the most pressing challenges businesses say are holding Albertan communities back. From big cities to small towns, this conversation unpacks the report's three foundational pillars for thriving communities: tackling crime and social disorder, improving permitting and planning processes, and rethinking municipal tax systems and business–government relationships. As Alberta heads into a municipal election cycle this fall, Murray and Mike also offer their advice to future mayors and councillors on how to work with business to create places where people and communities can truly flourish. About the Business Council of Alberta The Business Council of Alberta was founded on a simple idea: to make life better for all Albertans. We believe that business has an important role in improving society, and that when business does well, we all do well. We work with the chief executives and leading entrepreneurs of Alberta's largest enterprises to understand the big, long-term challenges that Albertans are facing and work with industry, government, and civil society to solve these problems and build shared prosperity for every person who calls Alberta home.

James Bauder is an Albertan truck driver and co-founder of Canada Unity, a group opposing public health measures during the COVID-19 pandemic and was a key organizer of the 2022 Canada Freedom Convoy protest in Ottawa. Arrested in February 2022, Bauder faces charges including mischief, intimidation, and obstructing police. He is currently seeking political asylum in the United States and has since had a Canada-wide warrant issued for failing to appear in court.

When SportsGrid made the decisionlast month to let go several of its sports wagering personalities, Jo Madden was among the departures. Being a free agent hasn't stopped the hosts of a Cup of Jo from continuing to churn out the content on her on her Instagram and X accounts, especially during the countdown to the start of the NFL regular season in four weeks. The Australian-born, long-time Albertan (and former member of the province's netball team) is our guest on the latest episode of the Gaming News Canada Show. Madden talked about her departure from SportsGrid and what's next for her. As is the case for all of our GNCS guests, Madden's path to the gaming industry is of the more-than-interesting sort as she discussed her transition from the worlds of accounting and liquor imports to provide sports betting advice during the COVID-19 pandemic. Madden told us about her daily routine, being a woman in the sports betting space, and how she's dealt with the online abuse that's sadly all-too common with personalities and athletes, as we noted in last week's edition of the GNC newsletter involving tennis star Elina Svitolina at the recent National Bank Open tournament in Montreal. Finally, Madden offered some advice for anyone wanting to take the plunge into the sports media/betting business, and we wanted her thoughts on the 2025-26 Calgary Flames, too. Hosted on Acast.

Alberta has more measles cases than the ENTIRE United States this summer. Seventy people are sick with E. coli after eating at a popular Calgary restaurant. Pistachios are being recalled due to salmonella concerns. Young people are drinking less...but vaping more. A surprising number of Canadians are dying from melanoma (skin cancer). And the Alberta government is continuing its fight against gender-affirming care for transgender youth.  1:00 | Drs.

Faisal and Leanna dig into a major blind spot in many retirement plans: health care. From out-of-pocket medical costs to the rising need for long-term care, they explain why planning for your health is just as important as planning for your wealth. Then, Tegan Hill from the Fraser Institute joins to unpack Alberta’s pension proposal, the potential $334 billion transfer, and how it could impact your retirement income. Whether you support it or not, this is a debate every Albertan retiree should be watching. Next, economist Moshe Lander explains how Canada has stayed resilient amid rising tariffs and global trade tensions and what retirees need to know about how it affects your investments, household costs, and financial plan. To wrap up, Faisal and Leanna tackle the questions they hear most often: Can I afford to retire? What happens if things don’t go as planned? They share personal insights and real-world scenarios to help you navigate uncertainty with confidence.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

How would you describe what it means to be Albertan? Do the people of the province have a collective identity? The Bloc leader says we don't really have a culture, the premier disagrees. What do you think?

One of the Canadian godfathers of AI launches a non-profit, with some 40-million dollars in funding, to protect people from the technology he pioneered. A Manitoba chief is urging anyone who hasn't left his community yet to flee the out-of-control blaze that's approaching -- before it's too late.On the eve of a potential doubling of tariffs, an Ontario mayor braces everyone who works at the local steel plant -- and everyone in the city who doesn't -- for extreme economic pain. A Montreal tour guide shares the story behind a new Canada Post stamp depicting a 1977 police raid on one of the city's most historic gay bars -- and the fight for equal rights that followed. He's an Albertan, and he works at a big hockey bar -- but despite his Canadian pride, a Calgary Flames fan tells us he just can't bring himself to cheer for the Edmonton Oilers. Residents of a UK community resort to some very colourful -- and disproportionately dramatic -- language, when a section of local road is painted red for safety. As It Happens, the Tuesday Edition. Radio that figures the problem is just a pigment of their imagination.

We talk about the election & Albertan and American oil policy. Kristen Pue of the Pullback Podcast interviews refugee expert Evan Easton-Calabria about climate migration and displacement.

Today, we're looking at Prime Minister Mark Carney's expected first in-person meeting with President Donald Trump, following the U.S. leader's continued comments about making Canada the 51st state during an interview with NBC's Meet The Press this past weekend. Plus, one in four Albertans identify themselves as Albertan first and Canadian second, according to a new poll. Will another Liberal victory drive even more Albertans to see themselves as Alberta firsters? And finally, Canada has experienced another decline in its freedom rankings, this time for press freedom — something that isn't likely to come as a surprise to regular Rebel News viewers, given the way the government treats independent press outlets.

The ‘bone collector' caterpillar covers itself with body partsIt's like something from a horror movie. A creeping, carnivorous creature that in a macabre attempt at disguise and protection, covers itself with the dismembered remains of dead insects. This super-rare caterpillar is one of the strangest insects in the world. It lives on spider webs inside of trees and rock crevices in a 15 square kilometre radius on the Hawaiian island of O'ahu. Daniel Rubinoff, from the University of Hawaii Insect Museum, found about 62 of these caterpillars over the past 20 years. Their research was published in the journal Science. If a dolphin pees in the water, does anybody know it?Researchers observing river dolphins in Brazil were first surprised to see the animals turning on their backs and urinating into the air, and then further amazed to see other dolphins sampling the falling stream. The Canadian and Brazilian team, led by Claryana Araújo-Wang from the CetAsia Research Group, believe this aerial urination may be a way to communicate dominance among males. The research was published in the journal Behavioural Processes.How the snowball Earth made life bloom on our planet700 million years ago our planet was frozen from pole to pole during a period known as snowball Earth. Glaciers at that time scoured deep into the continents below like a giant bulldozer, grinding the rock into fine sediments. In a new study in the journal Geology, scientists found that as the glaciers melted, a lot of that loose material was injected very rapidly into the oceans. Branden Murphy, from St. Francis Xavier University, said this chemical cocktail fertilized the oceans, and set the stage for rise of multicellular complex life on Earth.  How a team of microbiologists use cars to sample air across the countryUnderstanding the distribution of bacteria that might be a concern for human or animal health across an entire country is a huge job. But a team from Laval used a very clever shortcut to gather their data. They collected car air filters from vehicles across the nation, and looked in them to see what they sucked up. They found regional differences in the antimicrobial resistance genes specific to the agricultural activities and environmental factors at each location. Paul George, from Laval University, was the lead researcher on the study published in the journal Environmental DNA.Albertan obsidian artifacts are the end point of a widespread Indigenous trade networkObsidian — volcanic glass used to make super-sharp tools — is found as artifacts from chips to blades to arrowheads at hundreds of sites across the Rockies of Alberta and B.C., dating back thousands of years. However, there are no volcanos in the area so archaeologists are using this volcanic glass to chart Indigenous trade routes through North America. New research, led by Timothy Allan of Ember Archeology, has traced the obsidian's point of origin to a site nearly 1,000 kilometres away, suggesting the material travelled over long distances and passed through many hands. The research was published in the Journal of Field Archaeology.Do his gills ring a bell? Fish can recognize humansScientists at a Mediterranean research station kept noticing that particular fish would follow them around whenever they would try and do experiments. To find out if the fish were actually capable of recognizing individual humans, a team from the Max Planck Institute of Animal Behavior in Germany decided to turn this annoying behaviour into a scientific experiment. They found that the fish were indeed capable of remembering which humans had shared tasty treats in the past. The research was published in the journal Biology Letters.

Today, we're looking at Premier Danielle Smith weighing in on the topic of Albertan independence as a recent push for the province to separate has been picking up more support. Plus, Bloc Quebecois Leader Yves-Francois Blanchet accused Prime Minister Mark Carney of copying the Conservatives policies, a talking point that has been circulating in political circles following the Liberals shifts on several policies, including the party's flagship carbon tax. And finally, with U.S. President Donald Trump declaring April 2 “Liberation Day” as he prepares to unveil a sweeping set of tariffs on international goods, Pierre Poilievre has pledged a Conservative government would reinvest money collected from tariffs into modernizing and expanding Canada's military. Special Guest: Lise Merle.

George, originally from Hungary, has embraced his identity as a proud Albertan after spending decades in Canada. He is the owner of Old World Flooring.

We also look back at Pacific's two latest additions, the current quiet time at Vancouver FC, and look at an interesting year for York United, both on and off the pitch, as we chat with Mexican owners the Pasquel brothers about their first year in charge. Plus we get the thoughts of Bobby Smyrniotis, James Merriman and Tommy Wheeldon Jr about the need for some kind of VAR in the CPL and look at the stadium issues that plague Canadian soccer.

In 2022, a convoy of truckers angry with COVID-19 measures staged an 18-day blockade, shutting down a busy border crossing with the U.S. in Coutts, Alberta. It ended with the RCMP arresting 13 protesters and finding a stockpile of guns, ammunition and pipe bombs.Now, two men are standing trial for possession of a weapon for a dangerous purpose and conspiracy to commit murder in connection with their involvement with the blockade. The prosecution says the two men believed they were preparing for “war”.Bill Graveland with the Canadian Press has been covering it from the beginning and takes us through the details of the trial so far, and the lasting impact that the blockade has had on a tiny southern Albertan community.For transcripts of this series, please visit: https://www.cbc.ca/radio/frontburner/transcripts

An unlikely cycling revolution is happening in one of the coldest big cities on the planet: Edmonton, Alberta. Despite freezing temps, lots of sprawl, big trucks and an economy built on pulling oil out of the Albertan tar sands, the Western Canadian city is in the midst of a four-year, $100 million CAD investment in active transportation that will connect far-flung neighborhoods with a network of safe, high-quality, protected bike lanes. Many of these bike lanes will even get priority over roads for cars when it comes to snow removal. We traveled to the home of the NHL's Edmonton Oilers to attend the Winter Cycling Congress, where we talked with the people pushing for this transformation, including the city's former mayor, Don Iveson. Plus, hear our appearance on drive-time radio in the heart of oil country. *** Support The War on Cars on Patreon and receive access to ad-free versions of all our episodes, exclusive bonus content and stickers. *** This episode was sponsored by Bullmoose Soft Goods and Cleverhood.
