On Sunday, 28 June 2026, a 24‑year‑old woman from the town of Canmore was killed following her vehicle crashed west of Banff National Park in the early afternoon, one location that has been that subject of several news reports published earlier this evening and that prompted one immediate response from local authorities. Authorities say the single‑vehicle collision occurred on a rural highway near the park’s western boundary, and the fatality was confirmed by CBC, CTV News and CityNews Calgary, all of which reported that the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
