- Description
- Calgary’s free fare zone evaded derailment on Tuesday night, for the second time since last fall. But city council is scheduled to again debate its future early next year.
Councillors narrowly voted 8-7 to keep the free fare zone alive, at least for now.
Council agreed instead to push debate over the zone's future to early 2027, when it discusses updating the city's overall transit fare strategy.
In the meantime, CTrain users can still ride for free between the downtown platforms along Seventh Avenue S.W. while the city further engages with residents and businesses downtown about the free fare zone.

- Description
- Manitoba Premier Wab Kinew is urging Premier Danielle Smith to press pause on her fall separation referendum.
Kinew, speaking directly to Smith at the western premiers meeting in Kananaskis, Alta., says with all provinces signing and building megaprojects now is not the time for such uncertainty.
Smith didn't respond and wasn't asked by reporters to respond.
She has said she wants her province to remain in Canada but that many Albertans are unhappy with Ottawa and deserve a chance to express their opinion on staying in Confederation.
Smith has announced Albertans will vote Oct. 19 on whether to stay in Canada or start the process for a binding referendum on leaving the country.
All premiers at the meeting say now is the time for unity and certainty in order to get things done for Canadians.

- Prime Minister Mark Carney said Monday that Alberta Premier Danielle Smith's referendum question on whether to hold a future referendum on separation is "not helpful."
Speaking to reporters at an affordable housing announcement in suburban Ottawa, Carney was asked if he had counselled Smith against holding such a divisive vote.
"The premier doesn't always take my advice," Carney said in response.
Carney, who was the governor of the Bank of England when the U.K. crashed out of the European Union, said he has firsthand experience of how referendum questions like this can spiral out of control.
He said the results of a referendum on whether to hold another referendum can be interpreted as the final say on whether to leave or stay.
Carney said the federal government is also reviewing Smith's question to see if it triggers the Clarity Act.
Under that law, the House of Commons decides whether a provincial referen...
