One of Edmonton’s most recognizable landmarks is officially 50 years old.

The Muttart Conservatory opened in 1976 and has since welcomed generations of Edmontonians through its iconic glass pyramids. From family outings and school trips to weddings and unforgettable exhibits, the Muttart has remained a special part of the city for five decades.

Edmonton riders can now call, text and use mobile data inside the city’s underground LRT stations and tunnels.

The first phase currently supports TELUS, Bell and several affiliated providers, with more carriers expected to be added. City officials say the long-awaited service could improve safety by allowing riders to contact Transit Watch, share their location or stay on a call while travelling underground.

Do you feel safer riding the LRT now?

An Edmonton startup is developing a portable MRI machine that could plug into a standard wall outlet, weigh about 550 pounds and cost roughly 90% less than a traditional scanner.

Created by Magnetamr, the technology aims to make medical imaging more accessible, especially for rural Alberta communities where patients often travel long distances and wait months for appointments.

The prototype is expected to be showcased next month before undergoing regulatory testing.

Edmonton Fire Rescue is taking emergency response to the skies.

The department has expanded its drone program from a single drone and pilot in 2023 to providing 24/7 coverage across all six Edmonton districts.

Equipped with thermal imaging and live video capabilities, the drones give emergency crews an “eye in the sky” during structure fires, River Valley searches and water rescues helping firefighters locate people faster while keeping frontline crews safer.
