Police in Airdrie, Alberta (just north of Calgary) say this driver hit a 17-year-old girl in a marked crosswalk, got out of the vehicle, and appeared to get upset at the teenager before driving away.

They released this video and are now trying to identify the driver.

There's currently an #Instagram bug that prevents feed posts from working. You can't see your own posts or anyone else's lol

Many posts on reddit where people are experiencing the same issue as I am.

Web still works, it's just the in-app feeds that are broken.

I’ve covered dozens of protests at the provinces’s southern office at the McDougall Centre, but today’s teacher rally was by far the largest by a measure. Truly massive turnout for teachers to express their anger at the government.

The AB teachers rally in Calgary today, at McDougall Centre

I tried to get pics up close but it was way too packed to get a good spot. Biggest rally at McDougall I've ever seen.

#Alberta #abpoli #AlbertaTeachers

A lot of people standing outside of McDougall Centre, a provincial government office and meeting space. They're holding signs and most people are dressed in red.

In Canada it's best to purchase your fireworks from a bear. Don't ask why just do it.

#Alberta

A bear stands in front of a store section selling fireworks. He is a fancy bear and wearing a nice hat.
