Mayor Jeromy Farkas says the spring shut down is the first of two happening this year. He says the work is preventative. He says he understands the frustrations from Calgarians about another round of water restrictions.
City of Calgary reminding residents the Bearspaw feeder main will be shut down on March 9 to reinforcement repairs on 9 segments. Stage 4 water restrictions will be in place for 4 weeks. Pipe condition is worsening, city officials say.
DHS (once again) announces conclusion (within 3 hours) without any investigation.
- Conclusion about federal agent's intent
- Conclusion about individual's intent
- Implicit conclusion about timing of disarming the individual and shooting him
@StellaVellani@TheTorontoSun Danielle Smith is not a MP lol good one. She is a MLA for the riding of Brooks Medicine Hat and is the Premier of Alberta. Better get back into that Socials Study class you missed on how government works in Canada.
@TheTorontoSun Who fucking care what Elon Musk think . He should slam the Edmonton MP Danielle Smith,like him cutting benefits and services that ppl need
@peardonrules@MelissaLMRogers You are absolutely right! In Alberta it’s $850 without contrast and $1100 with. Tax write off for medical expenses on your taxes. I bet she bitches also about her sore knee when others are triaged faster for more serious issues. 16 weeks is actually not a bad wait time.
Let’s compare. If I needed an MRI, in Canada 🇨🇦 I would expect to wait 16.2 WEEKS (more than 3 weeks longer than the wait in 2023), but in the USA 🇺🇸 I could get one tomorrow at 1:15 PM 😁 Why do Canadians accept this?
@Cindycoombs4@MelissaLMRogers Perhaps look for a better primary care doctor who advocates for you. Sorry that happened to you however you are posting supporting this crap, go pay the money ..you can in private clinic and can claim medical expenses on your taxes. No ER in Canada would turn you away in a crisis
@MelissaLMRogers Yeah, the free healthcare left me disabled after years of trying to get a diagnosis unable to work they finally diagnosed me once my aneurisms leaked into my brain and even then I had to fight for an angiogram
I still don’t understand why about 40% of Canadians think healthcare in Canada is free. This is like Canada 101 🇨🇦 It’s NOT free. And it’s barely available either
@MelissaLMRogers You are very wrong. 4 months for an MRI is standard if it’s not a medical emergency and quite frankly that’s not much of a wait at all. You can book a MRI privately and it is $850 without contrast / $1100 with which then you can claim on your taxes. Wait < 2 weeks.
@cecile_shaw8@RpsAgainstTrump This was a poll completed by 1000 people who were sought out. Read it.. the poll clearly states that in its disclosure in the fine print. Hardly a snapshot of what a normal person would support and ages 18-34 lol! They are probably living in their parent’s basements.
Laura Ingraham: You’re tougher with Canada than you are with some of our biggest adversaries. Why?
Trump: “Only because it’s meant to be our 51st state…One of the nastiest countries to deal with is Canada”
Go ahead, MAGA—try to defend this.
@angela_nixon@mjfree You can’t be serious? Your 87 father still works because he wants too? Pull your head out of the sand. You’re an awful daughter to support and be proud of that.
@mjfree My parents are 85 and 87. They never filed to receive social security. They planned for their retirement. Oh and he still works full time, by choice, not because he needs to.
🚨 BREAKING: After it came out that Canada plans to target red states with tariffs in response to Trump, TEXAS Governor Greg Abbott has responded.
"Careful Trudeau. The Texas economy is larger than Canada’s. And we’re not afraid to use it."
@JustinTrudeau Take your gst savings and $250 dollars and f right off. Come April that money will be sucked right back up in a month or 2 with your hideous increases to the carbon tax. Axe the carbon tax.
In just a few days, essential items will be tax-free in Canada.
Takeout for dinner. Your morning coffee. Diapers and winter snow pants for your kids. All tax-free for the next two months.
That’s going to make life cost a little less.
@michelledrevant@cityofcalgary Genuinely, thank you for the tip.
So much yadayada on CGY website it's hard to find things.
The 'tell us what you think of website' popup is really annoying b/c it leaps in so fast. Plus they don't change anything even when given suggestions so why bother describing the problems
@cityofcalgary ARE there recordings of these Live events?
I keep looking for them and can't find them.
Because it isn't realistically possible for 1.4 million CGYians to be hanging around waiting for Live announcements.
Help me find them? Make recordings available?
Good day on the Bow River in Calgary, AB today. River is seasonally high & healthy with a canoeing family & a train going by.
Hard to believe we are on day 9 of being unable to fix a pipe, 2 wounded workers, water restrictions, new future water restrictions, fire bans, snitching
Gondek asks Calgarians not to shower or shave amid water crisis.
You should probably cancel your free trial of communism, Calgary.
Unless you love shortages, deficits & destruction that is.
