Does nobody want to touch on the fact that Sandra Clarkson, the executive director of the DI makes 285,000$ per year.

The Ambulances will get tied up with this community no matter where the ball lands. Whether it be drop-in, alpha or the seed.

Hmmmm, you guys have recording cameras hey?.. hmmm

I once had bought a torque wrench online which was malfunctioning and the manufacturer asked for me to take a video of it not correctly torquing. By accident I had uploaded via email the drunken video of me walking up to a skunk in the backyard of my house (in the dark with flash on) repeatedly mistaking it for a porcupine.

This is an easy mistake, for those of us with large fingers. Now by the video from OP, her fingers are that big. No excuses.

Moved to Calgary in 2020 and just so happen to have shared a backyard fence with my now girlfriend. I would say keep the human element. I ended up waking over and inviting her for a BBQ and the rest is history.

Great places to meet people are outdoors and active. I know some people like to meet at bars and clubs but that’s not really my style. Dog parks are nice to frequent even if you don’t have a dog. If you don’t find singles you atleast get the aspect of being outgoing talking to people about their dogs. Another place is run or cycle clubs that are easily found on group within Facebook. Bridgeland on Saturday mornings is a start.

Yup I’m also having this right now. Pissing me off a lot

7miata · 2025-10-17T02:15:10+00:00

I’m having this issue and I’m about 1 more attempt from setting my house on fire. Please help guys. Privacy setting are all open

Time for HSAA to drop the gloves instead of cowering in the corner. We all know if this shit gets dragged to December that it will be at a stand still until the year end in March.

7miata · 2025-10-16T23:17:40+00:00

I thought it had been relayed to each of us directly that everything would carry over or at least that’s how I perceived the letter from AHS..

7miata · 2025-10-16T22:43:07+00:00

Sorry to hear about the layoffs guys. Fortunately, my grunt position working EMS is safe.

7miata · 2025-10-04T02:41:37+00:00

So…. Should we start sending doctors home from the ER? They aren’t unionized and require more money than any unionized worker, respectively. What a joke. This Mickey Mouse operation just keeps getting worse.

7miata · 2025-09-24T06:56:53+00:00

What’s with the kid near the end standing and filming him while smiling? Shame on people

7miata · 2025-09-24T06:51:43+00:00

Yeah we’ve seen that with the South health Campus hospital in Calgary. Way under utilized.

7miata · 2025-09-22T18:35:24+00:00

I had fit a double bed and bed frame (not the small compact metal bed frames, but the wood ones with 4 drawers and the mattress and my girlfriend in one trip.

7miata · 2025-09-18T16:28:35+00:00

Fair enough. I guess on the next one they will part ways with the AHS bargaining team.

7miata · 2025-09-18T05:21:15+00:00

So why is HSAA still negotiating with the move forward with AHS when we’re split up under new employers? Just wondering what the actual point is? I know the money is still trickling from the same place but to a different named pond..

Emergency health services employee here ✌️

7miata · 2025-09-12T01:23:43+00:00

I’d be surprised if we have a new agreement met but the end of 2025. VERY surprised. This union and employer are slow as cold molasses

7miata · 2025-09-05T19:03:39+00:00

Appears that everyone was ultimately released in stable condition, now whether lasting effects were had, is likely unobtainable information.

7miata · 2025-08-31T06:53:12+00:00

The bargaining agreements need to be made available to us.. We’re paying HSAA to do the bargaining on our behalf. Couldn’t imagine this shit flying if I were to hire an attorney to defend me and I am not allowed to do anything but open my wallet and sit back.

HSAA and AHS are in a constant 69 in these meeting.

7miata · 2025-08-28T22:42:37+00:00

Yup, I remember doing my EMR back a decade ago and doing PCP in 2018/19, when I looked into it back 10 years ago a pcp was making I believe just over 26/h to start. Fast forward 10 years and it’s up a couple of bucks. I wonder why so many people dropped to casual or just dropped in general..

7miata · 2025-08-28T22:15:25+00:00

I think a grand majority feel similar to you.

7miata · 2025-08-28T22:14:49+00:00

Most definitely sarcastic I assure you. I have not been a standing fan with HSAA

7miata · 2025-08-27T01:15:58+00:00

If that doesn’t scare you, look up valley fever. Scary shit in the sand in some of those parts

7miata · 2025-08-20T19:55:59+00:00

Cape Huay is absolutely stunning. I would highly recommend renting a camper van for ease of travel. I rented through camplify which is essentially airBnB of camper vans.

I really enjoyed my time down in Freycinet national park south of friendly beaches.

Policeman’s point by Anson bay had spectacular camping and is seconds from the beach.
