Calgary police probe a series of sexual assaults dating from April 26 and Sept. Al Menzies says a single pattern eludes them. Two officers are off duty to study trends while a command centre with about 20 officers works the cases. The suspect is believed to be linked to at least seven attacks with no indication of timing.
Calgary psychiatrist Dr John Devries says the Alberta Mental Health Services restructuring, moving services from a central clinic to four regional offices, harms patient care and questions managers' medical suitability. Four Edmonton clinicians resign over the changes.
CHUM Ltd and Dinosaur Broadcasting clash at an CRTC hearing over Dinosaur's plan to increase CKDQ Drumheller to 50 000 watts and relocate its transmitter 75 kilometers southwest of Drumheller. Dinosaur seeks licence renewals for CKDQ and CIBQ Brooks while CHUM argues the move targets Calgary.

NDP Leader Grant Notley says Alberta’s $12 billion Heritage Savings Trust Fund survey is pre election manipulation. Treasurer Lou Hyndman defends it as a search for information gaps, with results to be tabled in the fall.

U S energy official Harry Johnson warns that planned U S budget reductions could wipe out enhanced oil recovery research at Bartlesville Oklahoma. The cuts would create a void for Canada where heavy oil deposits in Alberta and Saskatchewan rely on U S work. Johnson says $23 million is needed to sustain the Bartlesville program and its 300 researchers, or risk losing critical university partnerships.
Ted Drabick, a 51-year-old inmate in Drumheller, seeks up to three days of unescorted leave to visit his wife and three sons.

Alberta Social Credit clears the way to return as a real party with an Edmonton reopening attended by interim leader Martin Hattersley and former figures.
