Here are the most Googled things in Alberta today!
It's a big day, October 29, as Alberta schools see students return after a three-week teachers strike. Calgarians felt the impact, and the Calgary Board of Education expects a gradual return to normal routines, with extracurriculars potentially delayed. November diploma exams are even optional for students this year.
Sports fever is running high! Many Calgarians are glued to the World Series, with 56% of us cheering on the Toronto Blue Jays against the Los Angeles Dodgers. With the series tied 2-2, Game 5 is today. This excitement is already sparking a projected 10-15% jump in local youth baseball sign-ups. Alberta hockey fans also searched "Oilers vs Canucks" after Vancouver's recent overtime win on October 27.
"Gmail passwords" searches reflect ongoing digital security concerns. Google confirms reports of 183 million email passwords in infostealer databases are not a direct Gmail breach. However, they advise using 2-step verification and passkeys. This echoes CyberAlberta's October awareness campaign, urging Albertans to strengthen online defenses.
