Apparently, it's now open with only 4 stalls.
The utility company has a hosting capacity map that shows less than 150kW available in the whole town, so this site may have an artificial power limit below the 350kVA that a v3 cabinet can nominally supply. I wouldn't be surprised if the utility is doing some upgrades and the site is already engineered for 8-12 stalls to be added at a later date.
Not showing in my phone app or the car yet, but I'll check again later tonight (I might also be slightly too far away for it to show).

Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but that seems awfully low for a town of 800+ residents. Less than 200 watts per person?? Or is that just the spare capacity? I guess we'll know if the whole town goes dark when 1 Tesla plugs in!
I have no idea how to read this.
But, it says last update April in Milk River and all neighbouring towns.

Yes, spare capacity. I think they provide the map for exactly this purpose - If you wanted to install a supercharger, or build an industrial plant of some sort, it's handy to know if the electrical grid can handle it before you start buying land and applying for permits.Maybe I'm misunderstanding something, but that seems awfully low for a town of 800+ residents.

Awesome! This was the missing link in my mythical Powder Highway odyssey. I was planning to do that in 2024, so there was plenty of time for gaps to fill in, but the earlier, the better, I guess.
Wow, didn't even notice this was happening. I was just noticing nothing happening between vancouver and brantford, then I was like what the heck? When did this pop up? This will do nicely when a powerwall hits a billion (or megamillions) and I'm bored and go down for some tickets.
EDIT: Yeah I know you can get em online, but I am not sure I trust em.
