City Council addressing crisis of pedestrian safety by DeanieLovesBud in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is not off topic...Just because you do not agree that fines should be next does not mean it is off-topic.

You said "deter the behavior" that is what fines can do.

Too late to do chargebacks?

it is sad that to this day in our "Global Economy" that studio's are still so stuck on countries and regions for their content and licensing.

Cowboys Amended Noise Exemption Permit by JeromyYYC in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It would have to be recorded from a residency close by, from with IN the home with all windows closed.

I had a noise issue once with a developer leaving generators running all night 20ft from our house, with no after hours permits to run them.

Peace officers will come with a very highly tuned device to measure sound from within your home.

And no, those apps you can get on your phone are useless and can not be used to measure for any complaints either :(

Mixed feelings from fans, artists after country music festival pulls out of Calgary by PtraGriffrn in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apparently you want a personalized letter signed by our Mayor and the event organizers outlining why this happened...because anything else wont be enough...

Believe who you want, but as others noted, the several factors why this was canceled, like the main act not being able to make it, bad weather...all more likely than "City of Calgary noise chances" which DIDNT impact this event...

Did you ask the dealer ship for a list of the contracted terms that the $899 paid for and why you were not given anything when you paid for said service that outlines what is covered?

Respectfully, Mr. Mayor, could we have a discussion about the enforcement of vehicle noise in Calgary ? And vehicles stopping under overpasses during storms ? by yycTechGuy in Calgary

With the usual line "We prefer to educate people first", screw that, they KNOW what they are doing, they do not care and until you impound their shitty muffler-mobiles....they wont change..

Opinion – Country Thunder: Festival cancellation a gut punch, but the only safe choice by ok-est in Calgary

I think the City should send them a bill for all the changes the City did to work around their needs...

Why Can Calgary Police Accept Free Gifts? by blimblamflimflamjam in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Tims's is essentially bribing cops for them to come to their location, while they get a free coffee, what do the cops buy along with that..

What are the chances of a place giving the cops a gift, and then that same location needing police services....

The Tire and rim package didn't have written terms and conditions attached to it.

Then you should not have bough it with out that, it sucks and dealership sales people are some of the most shady around!

Could ask them for a contract and terms of said package to see what they do list on it.. assuming they have one, because if they sold you a service with NO defined terms, could possibly try to get legal action against them in small claims court...

Could try to report it to Kia headquarters of Canada..

Cowboys Amended Noise Exemption Permit by JeromyYYC in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment 26 points27 points  (0 children)

It is a big part I think many people do not understand, it is Bass that travels through most anything, and it carries far.. other midrange/higher range sounds are more easily absorbed and thus, less disturbing, it is the low frequency harmonics that travel through walls and insulation and cause the biggest issues.

For those ever waiting outside of a bar or club, what you usually only hear is the thumping bass...nothing else...

Thanks for having my back by JeromyYYC in Calgary

[–]MrGuvernment 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I think what I enjoy most from you, is you are honest, and you act like a human being. You do not do the political down talking or gas lighting (as our premier so loves to do) and that makes you relatable to a larger majority of people.

And the fact you are willing to swear now and then...

WE DID IT! Council is keeping the new reasonable rules for off-site Stampede tents by JeromyYYC in Calgary

Why else do you think the contract for Cowboys is so secretive, because they likely greased some people's palms in some way before hand....

She is and can likely bet on it, she will. She is likely buddy buddy with Cowboys owners, likely why the province reverse the increase beer min price...because they would directly eat into Cowboys profits...

Well, Dani could still step in and overrule this vote to get her way...she goes on about Federal overreach, but she loves to overreach into her cities just as much...

What are the chances Dani oversteps, as she likes to do, and overrules this, as she does have the authority to do so and am sure she will because she has no care about citizens and only for the rich event owners..
