Have you heard about the new Alberta signs? What are your thoughts, do you like the new look?

The UCP announced the new 'welcome to Alberta' roadside signs design today. Replacing Wild Rose Country with Strong and Free.

Instead of using what looks like Helvetica font, it'll now have the Alberta government logo for the word Alberta.

From what we've read, the Wild Rose Country signs have been used for 40+ years.

With gas prices continuing to climb, many drivers are looking for ways to squeeze more mileage out of every tank. According to a NAIT auto technician, improving fuel efficiency comes down to two main things: proper vehicle maintenance and smart driving habits.

Keeping up with regular maintenance — like oil changes, replacing air filters, and checking fluids — can make a major difference in how efficiently your vehicle runs. Even something as simple as a dirty air filter can force your engine to work harder and burn more fuel.

Tire pressure is another big factor. Underinflated tires create more drag on the road, meaning your vehicle has to use more energy — and more gas — to move. Even being a few PSI low can noticeably affect fuel economy.

Driving habits also play a huge role. Rapid acceleration and hard braking waste fuel because all the energy used to get your vehicle up to speed is immediately lost as heat through braking. Smoother acceleration and gentler braking can significantly improve mileage, especially in stop-and-go city traffic.

Cruise control can also help on highways by keeping your speed steady and avoiding unnecessary fuel use.

As for the debate between air conditioning and rolling the windows down? Modern A/C systems are actually fairly efficient. At higher speeds, driving with the windows down creates extra wind resistance and drag, which can end up using more fuel than running the air conditioning.

Another common mistake drivers make is topping off the gas tank after the pump clicks off. Modern fuel systems are sealed and need space for fuel expansion. Overfilling can push fuel into emissions components and potentially cause expensive damage over time.

At the same time, constantly running your tank nearly empty isn’t ideal either. Fuel helps cool the fuel pump, and repeatedly driving on empty can shorten its lifespan.

Bottom line: regular maintenance, proper tire pressure, smoother driving, and avoiding fuel system mistakes can all help save money at the pump and reduce wear on your vehicle.

There’s a story about a construction worker who would sit down every day for lunch, open his cooler, and lose his mind.

"Not again!" he’d yell to the whole crew. "A ham and cheese sandwich? I hate ham and cheese! Every single day it’s the same dry bread and the same cheap meat. I can’t take it anymore!"

This went on for a week. Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday—same drama, same lunch.

Finally, one of his buddies, tired of the daily rant, snapped. "Dude, for the love of God, just tell your wife to pack you a taco or some leftovers! It’s not that hard."

The guy looked at him, dead serious, and muttered, "What does my wife have to do with it? I pack my own lunch."

Silence on the job site.

But here’s the thing: that’s exactly how most of us live our lives.

We complain about the soul-crushing job, the toxic relationship, the bank balance, or the way we look in the mirror. We act like we’re victims of some cosmic prank, completely ignoring the fact that we’re the ones packing our own lunchboxes every single morning.

You’re the one who signed the offer letter for that job.

You’re the one who accepted those terms.

You’re the one who built the habits that led to where you are today.

If you don't like what's on the menu, stop whining and change the recipe.

Stop waiting for a "rescue mission"—no one is coming to save you. If you want a better life, you have to raise your own bar. Learn the skill. Make the move. Do the work.

Here is the hard truth of the marketplace:
You aren't paid what you think you’re worth; you’re paid exactly what you’ve proven you’re worth in the current market. Not a cent more, and not a cent less.

If you want a better life... you have to become a better version of yourself.
