After a days-long search spanning kilometres around the hamlet of Bragg Creek, Alta., a championship endurance horse was reunited with its family. Owner Rosalynn Peschl said she and her husband, Houston Peschl, felt "tremendous relief" upon seeing Flex standing in a forest clearing. While he was saddling Flex, a bee sting spooked the horse, causing him to break his halter and run off. Houston eventually turned Flex into a champion endurance horse, and together the pair has competed in competitions across the prairies and the U.S., including winning a Canadian national championship in endurance horse riding. "These are friends I haven't met, even though they've been so tremendous and pivotal in this whole whole crazy journey."

Community effort to have CBC Olympic CoverageField Hockey Canada is disappointed that the CBC will not be broadcasting the entirety of the Olympic field hockey competition in Canada.

Hazy smoke can be seen from wildfires originating in the Northwest U.S. and Canadian Rockies (circled in yellow). (Imagery courtesy of College of DuPage)It's summer again, so that means many in the Canadian Prairies and U.S. have noticed smoke filling the skies. That could be due to a heightened prevalence of social media and a more sensitive forecast and response from governments. But hot and dry conditions during the last month have caused a lot of that vegetation to go dormant, building fuel and creating the perfect conditions for wildfires. While local officials and first responders do their best to control the more than 70 fires in the Canadian Rockies and dozens more in the northwest U.S. and northern Canadian woodlands, fires are best controlled by Mother Nature.
