“The need has been established and accented by the numerous residents who have had to leave Banff at vulnerable times in their lives to find care with suitable accommodation," said Councillor Ted Christensen.

“We continue to approve these residential units out there, which I think is a fabulous use of space. I’ve called it the Bushwick of Banff before – it must be so cool to live in an industrial compound – but there are services that are likely lacking out there for the residents who are living there," said Mayor Corrie DiManno.

“I think we really need some good news… when you have a big vision and you are operating at the scale that wildlife needs, it does make a difference,” said Jodi Hilty, co-author of the paper and Y2Y’s chief scientist and president.

Canadian Pacific (CP) Rail’s 23rd annual Holiday Train will be hosted virtually again this year, considering ongoing government restrictions on public gatherings due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Emergency services have been responding to a multi-vehicle accident on the Trans-Canada Highway east of Lake Louise. Earlier reports suggested there may have been three tractor trailers involved, with one of fire.

“Safety has to be the top priority…We’ve heard from the expert CP that they need to be able to have that whistle so that folks know that the train is coming, particularly at that illegal crossing," said Mayor Corrie DiManno

“This gift is going to have a huge impact on our patients and it’s going to have a huge impact on our staff and feeling they are giving the best possible care.”
