How about asking City Planning department to actually enforce by-laws in place and quit and hic relaxation biased in favour of developers?

The mayor and city council of Calgary actively promote population growth.

YYCCC view seems to be a combo of construction-jobs-are- sustainable (?) & property-tax- pyramid-scheme. So no big surprise.

Sonya Sharp in particular is pumped about gowing Calgary population. She's into sprawl.

Using humans (cyclists) as a traffic calming measure seems risky.

Are you talking about a protected bike lane, or just painted lines?

Pre-season records are indeed meaningless.

If Alberta NDP is selling it's soul before getting elected, what will it do once in power?

More pipelines????

What's next Naheed? More coal mines on the eastern slopes of the Rockies?

Naheed,

You want MORE pipelines?

You just lost my vote.

The planet is on fire, our air is foul, toxic cleanup is going to crush future generations.

Too bad...I had high hopes for you.

☝️This is why I will never buy a 50/50 ticket at a Flames or Oilers game.

If you want to donate $ to charity, cut these (sleazy) middlemen out.

Flames Foundation:

Admin costs are 8% of revs (excluding investment income). Fundraising costs are 59% of donations. This results in total overhead spending of 67%. For every $ donated, 33 cents go to the cause.

πŸ˜„yeah, but never heard the Canadian Pacific Railway called the Trans-Canada railway.

Not sure who is heard asking the question, but was irritated to hear opponents of this proposed pipeline described as "activists".

That's a subtle way to undermine the regular folks who don't support this hair-brained scheme.

The looks and body-language of the 3 standing behind her is telling...They are thinking: uh, oh the boss is having another "episode".

BTW, what's the trans-Canada railway?

Is there not a loading dock for this business at the back of the building?

As I recall, the original putrid new Flames arena deal (championed by then-councillor Jeff Davison) was opposed by only 2 members of YYCCC at the time: Farkas and Farrell.

The current new Flames arena deal is even more lopsided in favour of billionaire tax-expat Murray Edwards.

And the Alberta landowners where these O&G assets are located are also going to refuse to pay. I assume many of those landowners are part of the AB UCP "base".

Alberta UCP plan is to dump the costs this massive environmental cleanup of Albertans taxpayers (present and, mostly, future).
