Airdrie

Shortly after the release date for My Life With the Walter Boys Season 2 was announced, a trailer for the upcoming series was released earlier this week.

Over the weekend, it was shared that season 2 will premiere on August 28.

Watch below to see the trailer:

Rocky View County (RVC) is letting residents know that any white daisies you see in Alberta are not a native plant species and could pose a threat.

"While some varieties are available in gardening stores, it’s important to be cautious about what you plant. Two highly invasive species, Oxeye daisy (Leucanthemum vulgare) and Scentless chamomile (Tripleurospermum inodorum), are both listed as noxious weeds under Alberta’s Weed Control Act, shared RVC."

Ottawa says it will work to align its flight security regulations with those in the U.S. after Washington dropped a rule that required passengers to remove their shoes during security screenings.

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem announced Tuesday that passengers at American airports no longer need to remove their shoes because officials have found other ways to keep travellers safe.

Canada does not require passengers flying domestically or to non-U.S. destinations to take off their shoes for screening, unless a security officer decides it's necessary.

Six Republican lawmakers have sent a letter to Canada's ambassador calling for action on the wildfires sending smoke billowing across the international border into their states.

In a Tuesday letter to Ambassador to the U.S. Kirsten Hillman, representatives Tom Tiffany, Brad Finstad, Tom Emmer, Michelle Fischbach, Glenn Grothman and Pete Stauber of Wisconsin and Minnesota said their constituents are coping with suffocating smoke from Canadian wildfires.

A tornado watch issued earlier Wednesday evening for Rocky View County, including Airdrie and Crossfield, was lifted just before 8 p.m., according to Environment Canada.

The watch had been issued at 5:25 p.m., when the agency warned that “conditions are favourable for the development of severe thunderstorms which may produce tornadoes.” Forecasters also noted the potential for strong winds, large hail and heavy rainfall.

A man listed as a referee assignor with Airdrie Minor Hockey Association's website has been removed from his role after being charged with multiple sexual offences.

In a written statement to Discover Airdrie, AMHA President Pat Stachniak confirmed that 47-year-old Rodney Reisner — previously identified by RCMP as an Airdrie resident — “has served as a referee assignor for several years,” but clarified that while his name appeared on the AMHA website up until Wednesday mid-morning, he did not hold an official position within the organization.

Red Deer Minor Hockey says it is conducting an internal investigation after a video surfaced showing one of its coaches, former NHL player Nick Tarnasky, involved in a fight at a golf course.

The incident took place recently at Alberta Springs Golf Resort, just outside Red Deer.

Cochrane RCMP have laid additional charges against a former Springbank Community High School teacher following an ongoing investigation that began in January.

On July 8, 2025, Timothy Bailey (49), a resident of Calgary, was arrested and charged with the following:

• Accessing Child Pornography

• Possession of Child Pornography

Airdrie residents and businesses are being asked to take extra steps to reduce outdoor water use.

According to the City of Airdrie, even though recent rain and snowmelt have temporarily boosted river flows and reservoir levels, demand is rising as summer temperatures climb.

"The long-range forecast remains hot and dry, and with the Bow and Elbow Rivers supplying drinking water to more than 10 municipalities—including Airdrie—it’s essential we manage our shared supply carefully. Airdrie’s year-round watering schedule remains in effect."

Alberta has the most measles cases in North America on a per-capita basis, worrying experts who say summer events could push case counts even higher. 

The province’s former chief medical officers of health Dr. Mark Joffe says that’s twice the rate of confirmed cases in Ontario.

Ontario has been deemed Canada's epicentre of the outbreak in absolute case numbers, reporting 1,910 confirmed infections since its outbreak began in October, but with a population three times the size as Alberta.
