Have there ever been proposals for the Safeway site? It's probably a high traffic store, yet didn't receive a redesign like the North Hill and many other locations. I wonder if they're holding off because of redevelopment? Something similar to the Marc and Marda would be perfect for this location.

The city did something like that in the Balmoral Circus Park redesign and quite a few of the Kensington streets are deadended. Agreed the city should be doing more of these.

There was mention of a Beltline Sobey's (they own Sobeys, Safeway and FreshCo) from this article, but I think the author may have confused the West Hillhurst Freshco, with the Beltline. "Sobeys is also following suit, with plans for a 12,000-square-foot urban format store in the Beltline area...

Anywhere other than Fanfirst to get pre-season tickets? Have some visitors that aren't hockey fans, but would like to see a game for the experience. So doesn't really matter who's playing.

This side is supposed to be the main entrance of the W, it'll probably be completely redone.

It's actually pretty cool to have a tower that is shorter than many of the buildings. It's a good reminder of the history of the city and just imagining how different it looked when the tower was rising above the rest.

I went through the booking process and was unable to find the link. I disagree with this vaccine policy but it's not some MAGA/Trump conspiracy. https://myhealth.alberta.ca/Topic/Immunization/pages/book-appointment.aspx https://bookvaccine.alberta.ca/vaccine/s/preorder

It's hard to get any traction as opposition leader. Most people in other provinces probably can't even name their opposition leaders. Rachel Notley spent her career building her name recognition, Nenshi has the benefit of Calgary knowing him, but hard to do much this far from an election...

It's just the reality of the city we live in. There's a budget for bike lanes and street modernization and there's probably better ways to spend it than on parallel 12 and 15th Ave connections into Sunalta. I agree it makes sense for the Beltline because 12 to 15 may seem short, but in reality...

I don't disagree, but I think a N/S connection would be more useful than a parallel cycle track on 12 and 15th

It's funny how the complaint in the article is that there's no parking so people would park illegally. The solution to that is probably parking enforcement rather than allow a single person to take up so much public space for free, in fear that they will park illegally otherwise. People that...

Do you have a source? Seems like these sources are all citing Health Canada. https://www.alberta.ca/coronavirus-info-for-albertans https://www.albertahealthservices.ca/cdc/Page17314.aspx

In this case the parties will probably end up helping McRae, since she'll have more mobilization behind her as the progressive candidate. Joining Communities First will probably also hurt Wong, he's probably more centrist within that party, but will now be the "conservative" candidate.

With Truman projects, I assume the timing is also driven by their other projects and how they shift trades from one project to the next because they do more of the work in house than contract, that's why I've heard anyways. From a friend that works at a pretty large builder with a presence in AB...

I've listened to their podcast and find him a bit annoying. Especially the most recent one where he's clearly trying to defend the Feds in the Air Canada strike but not in a "I believe this" kind of way, but a "this is my team and I defend everything they do" kind of way. Opposite him was...

I'm in the same ward. I've seen signs for others but I guess only those two have officially registered. I like Wong personally and he's pretty responsive whenever I raised concerns. But he's not progressive enough to win such an urban riding without a vote split.

I got the vaccine last year and plan to this year, and I do support vaccine mandates when we are in a health emergency. But the recommendation from NACI is far less strong and they only recommend the access, rather than the giving of the shots to healthy individuals not at increased risk. I...

There isn't really a progressive party. Many of the progressive incumbents aren't running for re-election and none of the ones that are wanted to lead a party, or are popular enough to, including Gondek. Curious how the parties do, outside of Communities First, most are brand new. It's funny...

I'm all for containing waste, but the way to do that is have people sign up, pay a $100 deposit, which they get back once they receive the shots. The government gets to order only shots that are needed, and people that want the vaccine can get it. Win-win. It's also ridiculous to hear the...
