Family seeks return of .22 rifle in Ludwig case
The Ludwig family may reclaim a .22 calibre rifle seized after the fatal 1999 shooting on their Edmonton area farm. A .30-30 rifle remains with police to aid ongoing investigations into Karman Willis's death, which left 16 year old Willis dead and another teen hurt. No charges have been laid. Defence argues predators in the area justify the larger gun.

Alberta judge finds federal election spending law unconstitutional
An Alberta Court of Queen's Bench judge rules that federal rules capping third party spending in elections are unconstitutional while upholding provisions requiring lobby groups to identify themselves. National Citizens' Coalition president Stephen Harper calls the ruling a partial victory as the act still mandates registration for ads over 500 dollars and advertiser identification.
