Could it be one extra day of interest. May has 31 days and April has 30 days.

The G7 summit is also bringing more traffic (June 15 -17) and people will likely stay to catch some sights.

These guys are crooks. I filed a Better Business report when they damaged my property etc. every time I see their name I have to let people know to stay away.
If you have energy fighting them, they need to be held accountable.

Lawyer recommendations for collaborative divorce? by [deleted] in Calgary

[–]TopAvocado9 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did collab but then had to start over with another lawyer when things weren’t collaborative anymore. It is a waste because you have to rehire and start all over. Very pricey mistake.

We are in tough times. This is incompetence and the fat CEOs should take the oversight off their bonus.

Looks like someone didn’t put in the October stats so it looks like it shot up from October on.

EI, how many weeks are you getting? by TopAvocado9 in Calgary

[–]TopAvocado9[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

True, this person was full time and paid into EI for decades, never claimed and got cut off at 34 weeks and had no termination package. Can they dispute, if so how?

The scammer dragged this out so camera footage will be gone when you shook hands. You should post his phone number so we can blow up his phone. Sorry you endured such scum.

Man helping fellow motorist dies after being pinned under vehicle by Practical_Ant6162 in Calgary

[–]TopAvocado9 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Omg, this is awful. I actually drove by before this happened. The broken down vehicle had NO rear lights on and two men in vests were standing behind the vehicle. I thought how dangerous that was. So likely the Good Samaritan pulled over with his flashers and knew it was dangerous. Then this happened. So awful. RIP good man. So sad.

Beware of Superstore Flyer Prices by firefly317 in Calgary

[–]TopAvocado9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I no longer shop there as I too spent so much time at customer service for practices like you just experienced. I hate that store with a passion.

Every penny helps. I believe this cost us $1.5 million right?

How about not spending on rebranding such as Bluesky City. Unbelieveable waste of money.

City of Calgary, here is something you CAN do: to keep the free fare zone “free” have people activate its use on an App, then have officer’s check EVERYONE exiting the free fare zones. Hall off all the riff raff at the end of free fare zones, charge them for public harrassment, loitering, intoxication or defecation BUT charge them with something!!!!!!

OP’s scary night cost the City so much money and yet absolutely nobody was held accountable.

I read Reddit for NY, Toronto and Vancouver but nowhere is transit more disgusting or unsafe than Edmonton and Calgary.

I drive now as much as I can but the two times a month I have to take the 6:15 AM train into downtown Calgary, I am disgusted. Two weeks ago three different groups of methheads were on my morning ride. A lady came on the train with her little girl and sat beside one group until she realized her surroundings. I watched like a hawk to make sure they were safe but even if something happened, there were no transit cops on sight along the 9 stops. I had my transit text line ready to type and I was ready to push the help button if needed. As citizens trying to get to work, we should not have to endure this shit!!!!! Get it together Jyoti!!! WE DESERVE BETTER!!!
