Canada, Alberta flags fly high in town parade
Paraders waved both Canada and Alberta flags high as many in a crowd cheered louder for tossed candy than politicians at a stampede parade in the town of Ponoka. Premier Danielle Smith rode on top of a horse-drawn stagecoach at the parade. A pro-Alberta float later passed by, featuring a giant model grain elevator and an oil pumpjack. (June 26, 2026)
