Border delays push Alberta to rethink cattle cull plan
Alberta feedlot operators ranchers and politicians weigh a possible cull as U S border delays extend for live Canadian cattle. Herd sizes rise Alberta's herd up 6.9 percent to 5.7 million while a mass cull remains opposed though contingency plans grow more likely. Local industry leaders warn the border may not reopen soon and call for planning ahead.

Royal Bank glitch prompts patient praise in Medicine Hat
After a week long bank computer outage delaying millions of transactions since May 31 Royal Bank customers in Medicine Hat reported mostly smooth service. Branch staff cleared irregularities while officials said some payroll and other files remained unresolved and would be processed in days as backlogs were paid. The bank will reimburse fees and overdrafts and urged customers to contact local branches if still affected.
