Graph showing the number of deaths pending investigation from 2019 to 2024. In total, there were 3,244 deaths pending investigation as of January 2026 – without counting 2025. 2023 and 2024 contained the highest numbers at around 1,200 each.

Albertans: your premier is lying to you.
I’m going to ask my MLA Jason Stephan if he agrees with this. I honestly think he won’t answer me.
"Trump in some respects is an unimportant figure. He is the frontman for overlapping criminal networks. It is those networks, working for decades, that need to be examined most."
