RED DEER — Prime Minister Mark Carney is coming back to Alberta today. Carney is set to make a joint announcement with Alberta Premier Danielle Smith in Red Deer. The two are expected to outline a new joint program to accelerate homebuilding in the province. Carney’s schedule says he will also tour a housing site, visit a canola farm and meet with farmers. Housing is a priority for Carney’s government. Ottawa announced Tuesday it would work with the Northwest Territories government to build at least 560 affordable housing units.
