Leave granted/denied on Alberta appeals — 'the Supreme Court will hear / refused to hear the Alberta case of X'. Filter titles and case metadata for Alberta origin.
TERMS CORRECTED AND LICENCE LINKED 2026-10-12 (DECISIONS #42): the Court's own terms govern its sites, not canada.ca's, which this record cited before (decisions.scc-csc.ca's footer links scc-csc.ca/resources-ressources/terms-avis/). This feed carries leave judgments: 'The decisions and reasons for decision of the Supreme Court of Canada fall within the terms of the Reproduction of Federal Law Order' — they 'may be reproduced, in whole or in part and by any means, without charge and without further permission from the Supreme Court of Canada', provided the reproduction is accurate and 'not represented as an official version'. Headnotes and other editorial features are excluded; the paper writes its own words.
HIGH-VOLUME NOISE for a city brief: the overwhelming majority are non-Alberta and are dismissals with no reasons. Filter hard by province of origin, or this section will bury everything else.
If this is yours and you want it left out, write to [email protected]. We stop reading it and withdraw everything that cited it, past editions included. Every source · How this paper is made
Alberta mode is a guy from Edmonton commenting on the news, and the guy is a machine. One or two lines an item — what somebody who has lived here his whole life would say reading it out to his mates.
It is not the story. The headline above each comment is the real one, the source link below it goes to the real reporting, and the plain edition is one click away. He is not summarising anything and he is not a reporter; he is the guy at the shop with an opinion about it.
He swears when a sentence wants it. He is rude about council, developers, the province, the weather, the roads and the Oilers, and never about the people in the story. He holds about a dozen opinions that contradict each other and he is fine with that.
Some of it will sit wrong anyway. When it does, that is on us and we would rather hear it than not: [email protected], and we will pull the line.
Two things get no comment at all, and they are not negotiable: anyone charged or before a court, who has a trial coming and is entitled to have us stay out of it, and a suicide. Anything you need to ACT on — a tip line, an advisory, an evacuation — keeps its full text underneath the comment, because a phone number does not go behind a joke.
The plain edition is the record, and it is the default. It is one click away and it is where you should check anything before you act on it.
