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 that early afternoon, one location that has been the subject of several news reports published earlier this evening and that prompted an immediate response from local authorities. Authorities say that 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 said that the woman was pronounced dead at the scene.
