Show Notes

Medicine Hat, a city in Alberta, anticipates stagnant population growth, unlike the provinces projected boom. Mayor Linnsie Clark aims for a hundred thousand residents to optimize infrastructure without tax hikes, citing recent developments and potential for the city power plant. However, challenges persist, including more deaths than births, school consolidations, and loss of commercial flights, fueling election debates and local concerns. Experts suggest new factories could alter the trend, as the city strives to attract businesses and workers.
