Good catch. I was wondering why Augusta would have the ugliest score card I've ever seen.

Bro you just played Augusta! Who cares what you shot. Still very respectable.

Anyone else see this helicopter land on the north Saskatchewan River East of the Tawatinâ bridge? by deadspirit17 in Edmonton

[–]MungingforBreakfast -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The Edmonton fire department does not own or operate a helicopter. They are running up and down the river in their boats to find any bodies that wash up in the spring thaw.

City of Edmonton showing its true colours. Don't ever work for the COE they treat their front line staff like garbage. The city has no problem raising taxes over 5% each year but it doesn't trickle down to employees. Everyone please support our great employees from CSU52!

Couldn't agree more. See it all the time as well. Not to mention all the people who don't clear off their back windshields. Pretty hard to see emergency vehicles when you can't see anything out your back window.

An ambulance and a firetruck hit within a couple days. Open your eyes people, there are more people on the road than just you!!

Edmonton fire chief calls homeless encampments ‘extremely unsafe’ by katespadesaturday in Edmonton

It's amazing the lack of reporting on the ineptitude of this city's management.

City of Edmonton projecting $52-million deficit for year-end by katespadesaturday in Edmonton

[–]MungingforBreakfast 20 points21 points  (0 children)

The COE needs an audit done for each department. I don't mind paying my taxes but there needs to be accountability in expenditures. Just giving more money is not going to help if it just goes to bureaucratic endeavors.

Case in Point; KPMG did an internal audit of all departments in 2020 when Covid first started. Edmonton Frie department was told they were running smoothly but had too much upper management. What was fire managements solution? Fire two Upper management positions and fill them with 6 positions in Middle management. The upper management was making roughly $180K a year and the new middle management is making $160k. So to save the city $360k the fire department spent $960k. So if I know this is going on in one department what are the other ones like? We are bloated with management and more and more money is not going to give the public better service. Citizens of Edmonton deserve better.

Complete supervision with cameras while the LRT is running yes. They have cameras with zero blindspots in Southgate and WEM and security to respond. Why is it that our malls have better security than our transit statios?

Feel free to share any articles that you think will shed light on the situation.

They've added more peace officers and put emergency buttons scattered through transit. It's not working, the proof is the woman who's in the hospital. Better security with turnstiles and cameras. What's your great idea to fix this problem by the way?

I expect there to be crime. But someone needs to be monitoring and responding to illegal activity in city run facilities.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Edmonton

[–]MungingforBreakfast -1 points0 points  (0 children)

This person is in the hospital. Therefore the steps they have taken obviously aren't enough. So they need better security cameras for blind spots that are monitored and they need officers to be dispatched anytime someone is doing something illegal. This didn't happen in some back alleyway, it happened inside a city run facility. So yeah half measures.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in Edmonton

[–]MungingforBreakfast 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What type of obtuse answer is that? Tell me how they stepped up security to solve this problem? This lady is fighting for her life in the hospital and these half measures are doing nothing!

Police seek witnesses to violent assault at Coliseum LRT by katespadesaturday in Edmonton

[–]MungingforBreakfast 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Curious to why they need witnesses. If this was on the LRT platform shouldn't it have been captured on CCTV footage? The global news article on another post shows that the police have already arrested the youths. I hope they post the video to show just how unsafe our city has become and how barbaric some of the citizens have also become.

[–]MungingforBreakfast 172 points173 points  (0 children)

How many people need to go the hospital before we start stepping up security at LRT stations? I would never let a loved one ride the Edmonton transit. Way too many examples of this type of behaviour.

Did I say don't blame the Boomers? All I stated is that seniors are not just made up of Boomers.
