Ottawa and Alberta Forge Landmark Energy Accord

Prime Minister Mark Carney, left, meets with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in Calgary on Thursday.   In a move that could redefine Canada’s energy landscape, Ottawa and Alberta have signed a new energy deal aimed at strengthening cooperation between the federal government and the province. The agreement signals a major shift in their often-contentious relationship, focusing on shared priorities such as clean energy investment, emissions reduction, and economic growth. The deal outlines commitments to expand renewable energy projects, modernize infrastructure, and support workers transitioning from traditional oil and gas sectors. Both sides emphasized that the accord is designed to balance Alberta’s economic reliance on energy production with Ottawa’s national climate goals. Observers note that this agreement could mark the beginning of a more collaborative era, reducing political friction and positioning Canada as a stronger player in the global energy transition.

Your lookahead horoscope for the week of August 11, 2024

 


HOROSCOPES IF TODAY IS YOUR BIRTHDAY

You will find yourself drawn to a cause or movement of some kind over the next few months and the more you get involved the more of a positive impact you will have and the happier you will be. Connect with something bigger and better.

ARIES (March 21 - April 20):

You will find it hard to ignore your emotions this week but that’s okay. It won’t hurt to let others see your vulnerable side and they won’t think any the less of you for it. Be careful though. You don’t want your rivals to think you’ve gone soft!

TAURUS (April 21 - May 21):

You don’t take risks for the fun of it but there are good cosmic reasons why you should take a risk or two now. The planets indicate there is much to be gained by backing your hunches, so trust them even if they seem somewhat illogical.

GEMINI (May 22 - June 21):

You may be in the mood to get things done but the earlier you start and the later you finish the more likely it is you will exhaust yourself, so be sensible and know when to take a break. Balance periods of intense activity with periods of relaxation.

CANCER (June 22 - July 23):

Family issues will weigh on your mind this week and there will be times when you wonder why you bother trying to be fair with loved ones. The reason, of course, is because it is in your nature to care and that isn’t about to change any time soon.

LEO (July 24 - Aug. 23):

The more the critics say your dreams will never come true the more determined you will be to prove them wrong. Anyone who thinks you will allow yourself to be affected by such blatant negativity clearly doesn’t know the first thing about you.

VIRGO (Aug. 24 - Sept. 23):

Even such a self-sufficient sign as Virgo needs help once in a while and if you are smart you will ask for assistance when a task starts getting too much for you. What seems such a challenge for one person will be easily resolved by two or three.

LIBRA (Sept. 24 - Oct. 23):

There is an air of excitement and expectation about your life at the moment and it will increase rapidly over the next few days. The upcoming union of Mars and Jupiter in the most adventurous area of your chart will see you at your very best.

SCORPIO (Oct. 24 - Nov. 22):

There will be a lot of sound and fury in your life over the next few days, so prepare yourself mentally and promise that you won’t add to it by getting worked up about trivial things. You are a serious individual with serious issues to deal with.

SAGITTARIUS (Nov. 23 - Dec. 21):

The more you do for other people the more the universe will do for you, so if you get the chance to assist someone in need don’t hesitate for a single moment, dive right in and do a good deed. They will never stop thanking you for it.

CAPRICORN (Dec. 22 - Jan. 20):

Changes on the work front may be unsettling but they are also exciting, so stop worrying about what the end result might be and focus on making the most of the opportunities coming your way. Change is good for you, so make it your friend.

AQUARIUS (Jan. 21 - Feb. 19):

You may be a nice guy by nature but sometimes you have no choice but to get tough with people who are rude for no good reason. You don’t have to put up with discourteous behaviour, so come down on them quickly and come down on them hard.

PISCES (Feb. 20 - Mar. 20):

The best way to get past a disappointment of some kind is to immerse yourself in an activity that requires 100 per cent focus. If both your mind and body are fully occupied there will be no room for negative emotions to get a hold on you.
