As world leaders and government officials gather at the UN Climate Change Conference in Glasgow (Oct. 31 to Nov.12), the City of Edmonton is keeping a close eye on developments.

We sat down with two experts from the City of Edmonton, Howaida Hassan and Chandra Tomares, to talk about COP26, what to expect from the conference and how it will impact Edmontonians and the City’s climate change strategy.

COP26 & YEG2021 - Transforming Edmonton Climate Change Conversation

Former City of Edmonton Ald. Gerry Wright envisions a neighbourhood-style LRT that uses the existing street layout as the pathway for trains. Wright is speaking in an oral history recorded on September 14, 1983. In context, he is defending his opinion that LRT development need not lead to high-rise developments along the line. The excerpt is from  RG-200, Series 7, File 52 and File 53 at the City of Edmonton Archives.
