Open coverage, for every reader

No account and no cost. Open coverage is the public layer of the monitoring behind every Damocles Edge product: what is moving in Western Canada policy, energy and business, credited to the people who reported it.

The Feed

A running record of the region’s news

The Feed gathers posts and articles from reporters, economists, analysts and official sources covering Alberta, British Columbia, Saskatchewan, Manitoba and the federal decisions that land in the West. New items appear through the day, newest first.

Narrow it by province or by topic, read it on the page, or follow it in any RSS reader. Each entry keeps its author, outlet and time, and links back to the original.

Weekly Top 3

Three items, chosen for consequence

Once a week, the three Western Canada policy items that matter most for business that week are pulled from everything that moved. Each one comes with a short note on why it matters and the next formal step on the record, such as a vote, a hearing, a deadline or a decision date.

It arrives as one short email, signed by Michael Dabels, and every edition is kept in the public archive.

Analysis, inline

Each item, read in full on one page

The weekly Top 3 page carries the analysis for all three items: the development in plain language, why it matters for Western Canada business, the date or decision to watch, and a link to the original reporting. Each week keeps its own page, so earlier items stay easy to find and share.

Going further

When open coverage is not enough

Open coverage follows the whole region. If you track one sector closely, or need to know where specific bills and decisions stand, the member subscriptions go deeper. If the question is about your own organization, see Engagements.

Open coverage is general information, not legal, tax, financial, investment or other professional advice.
