Defence boost could mean good things for SE Alberta
Defence minister Harjit Sajjan outlined a 20 year plan with a $62 billion spending rise that would fund fighter jets, patrol ships, and unmanned drones. The southeast Alberta region, home to CFB Suffield and drone test facilities, could gain from private sector partnerships and local industry momentum, though MP Glen Motz cautions officials must deliver.

Slow land department year amid transparency push
The city land department reports one of its slowest years, selling only 25 residential lots in 2016, while meeting transparency targets. It notes a 54 percent city market share that year, up from private‑lot activity, as it seeks partnerships and bulk bareland deals with developers. Grant MacKay says city influence has waned since earlier years.
