ted on the Village Media platform. Our local coverage includes Mountain View County, Olds, Innisfail, Bowden, Sundre, Didsbury, Cremona and Carstairs. We break locally-driven news written by local journalists and cover all the important issues in your “Village.” It’s our top priority. We update throughout the day, so when you come back to visit, chances are you’ll find something new. In addition to hard news, we also provide information that is important to the community that you won’t find in most media. We like to write stories about new local businesses, highlight special events and bring you general information about anything that impacts the heart of the community. Although we are hyper-local in our approach, we also provide national news from The Canadian Press, editorial columnists, entertainment and special features. We’re independent and it shows in everything we do. And we promise that we’ll remain fiercely local. Let us know what you think at [email protected].
