City approves on leash plan for Saamis Tepee site off leash area
Dog owners protest as Medicine Hat unveils final plan to protect archaeological resources beneath the Saamis Tepee south of Kin Coulee. The on leash and on trail approach aims to expand a formal trail network in the flood plain while keeping access to interpretive signs about Indigenous encampments dating from 3000 BCE to the mid 1700s, with heritage status since 1984.

The New Democrats ask Election Commissioner Lorne Gibson to review links between the United Conservatives and the Motor Dealers' Association of Alberta and Shaping Alberta's Future. They allege collusion and pay-to-play ahead of the spring election, citing a donor letter and a campaign push. Kenney's office denies promises.

Used car dealers seek Kenney pledges to reverse consumer rules
UCP spokesperson Christine Myatt released a statement after a board meeting with Kenney on September 6. The letter says the UCP promised to cancel NDP labour changes, roll back industry oversight reforms, and advance a bill banning right-hand drive Asian vehicles. Government House Leader Brian Mason claims dealers want to claw back consumer protections for buyers, including no false advertising, in exchange for large donations. Mason questions Kenney's commitments and hints at a bridge joke to critics.
