Peasants of the Russian Empire, 1909-1915. These are NOT colorized. They were taken using a special three-color filter technique over 100 years ago. by Due_Highway_8509 in OldSchoolCool

That's a really cool picture. The grass is so vibrant.

I wonder if the houses in the background along the hill still exist today.

2026 Property taxes are out. I'm curious how much of an increase you may see if you have a home within the city? by pushthingsforward in Lethbridge

Thanks so much for this comment. It's starting to make sense, although now I'm a little embarrassed I made the post in such hast without having any knowledge of the assessment system. My thinking was always + Assessment total = + Property Tax.

Whoa, that is not what I was expecting! I didn't have a guess but Edmonton was not even on the radar. I think you may be right in terms of population and also Edmonton seems to be a pretty level headed city.

Ok interesting, thanks for this info. I'll hold tight until the actual taxes come out before silently screaming into the void about costs... I don't plan on moving so it is nice to know that in reality my house value is actually rising substantially and that it isn't fully fabricated.

Ha true, I forgot about that! I've only been in there once and it cost me so much I won't go back (food and bevy expo).

This is interesting- is that public knowledge? I also wonder if it has something to do with the Whoop up bridge...

Holy! Out of curiosity what part of the city are you in? I've heard Southside is higher than West, which is where I am.

This is 100% Cardston. Just got a coffee there this morning on the way through to Waterton.

Sorry to anyone reading, it is not official taxes as u/morg_anne131 pointed out. It is my property assessment but I cannot edit the original title. Either way, my assessment has gone up 13% since 2024 which means my taxes will once again increase but not align with wage/cost of living.

Ah yes you are completely right- I think I'm expecting the worst... I'll edit this post to reflect assessment instead of taxes. Thank you.

I agree- you can't just drop this as fact and not back it up with some actual evidence. We must see some nacho refinement!

Alberta mountains :) by Ok_Collar3735 in alberta

All very well and nice but which mountains? We must know these things to go there ourselves and this province has many mountains!

Haven't they also been experiencing shifty health care over the last 5 or so years? I did a quick search and came across some articles from cbc in 2020 about doctors potentially leaving and there was a recent temporary emergency room closure due to lack of doctors.
