Calgary Stampede says screwworm situation shouldn't impact programming
The Calgary Stampede says it doesn't anticipate any disruptions to its Western Events programming due to the screwworm situation in Texas. Last week, the Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) temporarily banned livestock from Texas after two confirmed cases of New World screwworm were found in two calves in the southern U.S. state. It says all livestock, including horses, originating from or present in Texas within 21 days before crossing the border, will not be accepted into the country.

Alberta service aims to address mental health needs of farmers and ranchers
For many farmers, the workday doesn't end when they leave the field, park the tractor or finish chores in the barn. The farm is often their home, workplace and livelihood all at once.

That is one of the reasons Counselling Alberta offers a farm-informed counselling program designed specifically for agricultural producers and their families.
