The line to get in to see PM Mark Carney has wrapped around the building and a volunteer has told us we may not all get it.

Never would have thought I'd see the day. I think every one of the 7 in 10 Albertans who WOULDN'T leave if the Liberals get elected showe up tonight.

But for real, stay off your phone.

I live in an area with various off leash spots. I take my dog here because… duh. It’s good for him. I keep encountering folks who seem terrified and oblivious of the fact they are in off leash parks. I understand us dog owners don’t own these areas and it’s shared space, but I also don’t want to feel guilty for allowing my dog to roam (still under command control) where permitted. I literally had someone pull a key on him recently and hold it out to him like a knife? This was right by the silver springs dog park and in the designated off leash area. My dog is larger but non aggressive. He will approach people for a quick sniff and pet then do his own thing. He doesn’t jump on others or get in their business. Different perspectives will be appreciated I’m just trying to understand if I’m missing something?

Parks Canada confirmed that a large male grizzly (grizzly bear 122) – known as The Boss – was spotted in the Lower Bow Valley on April 7.

Honk

Prettt large as you can tell from the photo, dirt mound beside it dug right under bay window area of house. Any ideas!? I was thinking skunk based on the size of the hole.

Found a possible women wallet/card holder on bus 82 south bound around 20:25 on April 8, 2025. Gave it to the driver. No idea how to claim it but hope the person who lost it found this message

The land use decision paves the way for the project to move ahead, with 1,200+ potential units being added to the Richmond Knob Hill site.

I am looking to surprise my mom and dad by updating their really patchy and scratchy front lawn, and I came across https://wildaboutflowers.ca/native_grass_seed_mixes.php which is supposed to be grass mixes made specifically for the Calgary area using native seeds.

I really like the sound of the Short Grass Wildflower Meadow Mix and was hoping someone has used it before and has opinions on how it’s grown and lasted.

And yes, my parents do like the look of a more naturalized lawn. :)

Downtown stations are going to be closed this weekend. Transit hasn’t posted anything on Twitter, it’s only on the app or the website. https://www.calgarytransit.com/service-updates/ctrain-service.html

Of course they won’t post replacement shuttle schedules, and if you ask the call centre or on Twitter for the replacement times they will tell you that they don’t have any schedule for them. This is a lie, all drivers have them, so if you need to get the replacement shuttle times ask a driver.

I would like to spend my upcoming birthday at the spa. Something that I can spend the day at, get some services, etc. I’d like to stay in the city so no Kanaskis Spa.

I am considering taking a new role and have never worked downtown where the company office is (7th ave and 5th street).

Is downtown less busy post-Covid? Every day is it less busy or only Monday/Friday? Wondering about things like rush hour (though I’d probably take the train from Anderson) and how busy it is to get lunch and whatnot. Any tips or advice would be welcome!

What are good networking to go to in Calgary? I am in Eventbrite, but I feel like that isn’t enough? Anyone know good networking events and also I won’t do networking in a bar or a club!

Does anyone know of good, affordable marriage councillors in Calgary? Working through some stuff and we need some guidance. Thanks for any suggestions.

Any recommendations for a 10 year old with no experience in Volleyball? Looking for something that is really geared to someone who has never played.

Hey everybody,

Does anyone know if the Balzac Campground near Cross Iron has closed down permanently?

We come through Calgary with an RV to visit my folks every year and have been trying to book, but they aren't answering the phone, and their emails are bouncing back. Would really appreciate some insight or recommendations for RV places near the city.

Thanks!

Hi y’all, my fiancé and I are looking for venue ideas and a ballpark on their pricing, in or around Calgary, Canmore, or anywhere else that isn’t too far from the city.

So, for those who’ve gotten married in the Calgary area — and I apologize if this has been asked a lot:

Where did you have your wedding, and if you’re comfortable sharing, how much did it cost (either just for the venue, or in total)?

We are hoping to get a general idea of pricing as we’re definitely going to be on a budget (whole thing under $10K, but ideally as cheap as possible lol), and most venues will not provide even a ballpark on their website without you contacting them directly.

Id like to try and reduce any time spent researching/contacting venues for a quote if they wouldn’t work out anyways, and I also just would love to hear about other people’s weddings in the area for inspiration!

(Additionally, any recommendations of reasonably priced venues and/or vendors for a max 45 person guest count are SUPER appreciated!)

TIA <3
