Emily Murphy Park

The Famous Five were a group of suffragettes who did more than just advocate for women's rights. One of the best known is Emily Murphy, an Edmonton resident who took up the cause of getting women named as "persons" under Canadian law. This accomplishment should not overshadow some of Murphy's more controversial, anti-immigrant views, however. Emily Murphy Park, along the North Saskatchewan River, connects to the Alberta Legislature Grounds via walking trails.

PARTING SHOT: Alan Cumming
AFTER THE MASSIVE SUCCESS OF THE TRAITORS LAST YEAR (STREAMING now on Peacock), host Alan Cumming knew this third season had to be bigger. “There was a pressure to not just repeat ourselves, it actually upped the ante.” And they did just that, with a more explosive cast and even wilder twists. “It is bigger. I’m sort of a cult leader. I’ve gone from just a dandy lord of the manor in his castle to official cult leader. I’m fine with it.” Cumming hosts a castle full of reality TV stars who all play a game of murder in the hope of winning upward of $250,000. But Cumming says their TV background has little to do with their success on The Traitors. “Everybody has this sort of myth that you have to be in one of those gamer shows to do well at this game, and it’s not true. Sometimes it’s actually good to have better social skills.” Last year, Cumming’s Emmy win ended RuPaul’s historic 8-year winning streak for RuPaul’s Drag Race. “I saw Ru and I went up to him and I just went, ‘I am so sorry.’ And he just went, ‘Con-drag-ulations.’ And I was like, ‘He said it!’” [laughs]
