Alberta announced on Wednesday that it would send Alberta Sheriffs to help the Edmonton Police Service (EPS) “deter and respond to crime and social disorder.”
Earlier this week, Premier Danielle Smith and Public Safety Minister Mike Ellis retweeted pictures of a bus reportedly destroyed by a man high on meth. Other pictures and videos have circulated on social media of needles left in public places in Edmonton and of a homeless man making a fire inside a bus shelter.
