In keeping with the holiday spirit, Alberta’s health agencies are once again offering Albertans a chance to turn parking tickets into joy for children.
The Toys for Tickets campaign returns from November 17 to December 19, 2025, allowing people who’ve recently received a parking ticket at facilities operated by Alberta Health Services (AHS), Primary Care Alberta, Acute Care Alberta, Assisted Living Alberta, or Recovery Alberta to donate a new, unwrapped toy instead of paying their fine.
