Calgary could have to fully fund the Low Income Transit Pass (LITP) moving forward, as the Alberta government has pulled their contribution to the affordability measure.

“I don’t think there’s any way to explain this other than saying it’s just cruel. This is an absolute cruelty to low-income Calgarians who absolutely need this funding to be able to get through their lives,” she said, noting that it’s another example of the province offloading costs to municipalities.

“They’re expecting us to find the money somewhere to make this whole, and you also know what that means – that impacts your property taxes.”

The mayor said Calgary already foots 83 per cent of the $38 million – or $31.8 million.

If a health care worker did something like this, they would be facing discipline from their professional college and would face massive ramifications. If I, as a consulting professional, send unprofessional messages to a client and they contacted my boss, I would be out of a job instantly. 20 hours pay forfeiture is a joke in my opinion. The police need to be held to a higher standard than the general public, but seemingly face no actual discipline regardless of how egregious their behaviour is.

Anybody miss Lloyd's?

Probably a good thing. Seems like more and more parents are choosing to drive their kids to school and the chaos results in a lot of impatience.

Earthworm Jim did not answer the number.

Looking forward to visiting the new museum. They're going to open up the whole space to the public and only have 1 permanent exhibition.

A bear warning is in place for the West Bragg Creek Provincial Recreation Area after "a surprise encounter with a grizzly bear that resulted in a bluff charge."

This is in addition to a full closure of a section of nearby Moose Mountain, where a black bear had been seen feeding on a carcass in late September.
