FROM THE EDITOR

One driving force in our psyches is that relentless pursuit of excellence. Without argument, it’s the ideal way to realize the fruits of your labour, from hitting the pinnacle in your field of competition to ensuring your family is happy and safe.

It’s no different for businesses and services in St. Albert, which is why we dedicate pages to such endeavours in our annual Best of T8N survey, determined by readers like you. Find out the folks and establishments who are No. 1 this year.

Speaking of the best, St. Albert has been no stranger to receiving top-spot recognition from several authorities on municipal rankings. On page X, you’ll find out how highly this city has been praised by those experts, not only nationally, but globally as well.

Given the threats of tariffs and annexation of late from the U.S., consumers up here have responded by buying Canadian. We take it a step further by showing how to cook Canadian-style. While on the topic of annexation, we also look at how it’s affected St. Albert’s growth over the years.

Elsewhere, we highlight the greener side of St. Albert, from citing 10 of the city’s most popular parks (page X) to profiling local baseball haven Legion Memorial Ball Park. Then we go from green to something darker by showcasing products adorned in mocha mousse, Pantone’s shade for 2025.

Being the best we can be has always been our motivation. After you check out this edition of T8N, we hope you’ll agree.
