Alberta’s government says it has a suite of legislation coming this fall to protect Albertans, their pocketbooks and their personal information. Speaking to reporters Friday, government house leader Joseph Schow said the province will soon table new bills to lower the cost of auto insurance and give Albertans new protection when it comes to their utility bills. New consumer protection rules around ticket resales and used vehicles are also in the works, Schow said, as are stronger rules around the development of artificial intelligence data centres. Alberta’s politicians are set to return to the legislature Tuesday just as Premier Danielle Smith’s government enters the final calendar year of its mandate. The next general election is set for Oct. 18, 2027. Schow said helping Albertans, not the looming election, is driving the legislative agenda. “Each of these initiatives I’ve laid out are addressing some of the very real concerns that we have heard from Albertans,” he said.

Alberta’s government has announced new rules on when, how and what flags can be displayed at schools starting in 2027. The government said in a news release Friday that the flags of Canada and Alberta must be flown outside schools during the school year. “Let’s teach our children to celebrate our amazing country and province,” Premier Danielle Smith said in a social media post. The new rules also permit some other flags — including the Franco-Albertan flag, municipal flags, flags related to sports teams and the Vatican City flag — to be displayed on school grounds. Others, including First Nations and Métis Settlement flags, foreign national flags and the Royal Union Flag, can only be displayed on specified days or on official occasions and must not stay up for more than 14 consecutive days.

A 19-year-old woman from Haverhill is facing driving and vandalism charges for allegedly doing “donuts” with her car on the lawn of the Nahant Country Club Wednesday, police said. Destiny Cintron is charged with destruction of property, driving without a license and negligent operation of a motor vehicle, police said in a statement. She received a summons to appear in Lynn District Court. A court date was not yet set on Friday. At around midnight Wednesday, police received a report of a person in a white Kia doing donuts at the country club on Nahant Road, police said in a statement. A donut maneuver is when a car spins in a tight circle as one set of wheel is locked. Donuts are done celebratorily, or to show off a driver’s skill. They can produce smoke and leave behind skid marks. Photos posted by Nahant police on Facebook show multiple large circles on the country club’s lawn. As officers responded to the scene, they received another report that the car had left and was traveling down Valley Road, the statement said. Officers saw the white Kia and initiated a traffic stop, according to officials. Police said they saw mud and grass on the tires of the car.
