A mother from Spruce Grove, Alta., had a simple idea to make Easter brighter for children during the coronavirus pandemic: a socially distant Easter egg hunt.

On the same day provincial officials announced the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases had reached 419, the City of Spruce Grove announced new measures it is taking to try to tackle the coronavirus pandemic in its community.

The communities include Beaumont, Devon, Fort Saskatchewan, Leduc, Leduc County, Morinville, Parkland County, Spruce Grove, Strathcona County, Stony Plain and Sturgeon County.

A Spruce Grove man has been charged with murder after the body of a Kelowna woman was found just north of the city in Parkland County.

More than a week after the body of Saladina Vivancos was found near Spruce Grove, her friends say they still have no idea what happened to the 33-year-old Kelowna woman.

RCMP have charged a man and a youth more than seven years after two antique cars were stolen from a farm west of Edmonton and vandalized.

Charges were laid after RCMP said an "unfounded bomb threat" led to Spruce Grove's Tri Leisure Centre being evacuated on the evening of Thursday, Oct. 17.

Spruce Grove has become the latest municipality in Alberta to explore a ban on conversion therapy.

The rain may be putting a damper on the summer plans for many Albertans, but it is proving magical for mushrooms — including near Devon, where a massive puffball has been discovered.
