Four people have been charged in Calgary after thousands of dollars worth of clothing and merchandise were stolen from a Lululemon store.

Police say four people entered the downtown business last Thursday afternoon and left with items worth over six-thousand-dollars. They say witnesses were able to describe the getaway vehicle, which led police to a residence where the suspects were found and the stolen goods recovered.

Officers took five people into custody. Police released one of the men after learning that one of them was not involved in the theft. The stolen property has been returned to its owner. Police have charged Chantelle Bearhat, Miranda Nashcappo, Nicolas Wolfear and Gilbert Peace with theft over $5,000. Nashcapo and Wolfier are also facing charges of violating conditions of release. The suspects range in age from 20 to 46.

He said every $1-per-barrel change in oil prices can make a difference of about $680 million to the provincial treasury. Tombe estimates that if oil prices remain above $66 per barrel, Alberta could end up with a surplus of around $6 billion, instead of the previously projected $9.4-billion deficit. Alberta
