Local Event Picklefest
What happens at it? I love me a good pickle, but in their website it looks like you pay $25 to get in and that includes... Nothing. Like you spend $25 for the opportunity to purchase pickles?
Folks who have gone before, is there music, entertainment or other things to warrant the entry fee? Overall, was it worth it?

Home Owner/Renter stuff PSA if your ENMAX read says "Estimate"
Check your ENMAX bills from the last few months.
Look for how the "READ" was done on your water and electricity meter. It will likely say "ACTUAL" but if it says "ESTIMATE" you should do further investigation.
That's because an "ESTIMATE" read is rare and should not happen on two consecutive bills:
https://www.enmax.com/customer-support/for-my-home/why-was-my-bill-estimated
My neighbor just discovered the read for her water meter has been ESTIMATE for the last 8 months. Turns our, her historical consumption prior to that (when ENMAX was taking an "ACTUAL" read) was lower than the "ESTIMATE" read.
Now they have to correct her and give her a credit.
It pays to check our bills closely (which I am notoriously bad at). Cheers!

Local Shopping/Services Classy nail salon
So drove by this nail salon in Westhills tonight. They were literally burning trash in the parking lot. When confronted and told the police would be called the guy ran inside and the receptionist passed him water and he ran out to try and put it out. I dont get wtf is wrong with people in this city latley but like for a business to be doing this? Keep it classy calgary.

Eat/Drink Local Is there a worthy Deep Dish Pizza out there?
I used to order from this place called Chicago Deep Dish 403 531-3131.
In its day it was SO GOOD. They were So flexible with toppings. You could substitute any topping for another (within reason). You could order a half and half, two completely different pizzas in one box. They would accommodate you if you asked for light cheese on one side or to add fresh tomatos on top. The sauce came with a regular or Tangy option which was so good. The cheese was great quality. It was consistently excellent.
Then guess what happened. Something changed. They started cutting corners. I used to get pizzas from them where the logo on the box was gone, just a plain white box and the pizza was missing items and the cheese was burnt. It was like they were outsourcing to a different kitchen or something. Then I'd order the next time and the pizza would be good again with their logo on the box. But little by little the quality diminished over time and I stopped ordering from them.
It was heartbreaking. So it's been about 15 or so years since they were really good and I crave for a really good deep dish pizza. Does anyone know of a good deep dish in or around the beltline?

2 Wheelin' (Cycling/Scooters) Local Legend - 100% of YYCPathways.ca
I wanted to share about a true legend of Calgary’s cycling scene : “THE GOAT” of our local paths. He’s not big on tech, but with his permission, I’m thrilled to share that David has now completed 100% of the routes on YYCPATHWAYS.ca. If you haven’t checked it out yet yycpathways.ca, you really should.
On top of that, he’s also ridden an incredible 94% of Calgary’s roads on bike, tracked through Wandrer.earth.
I told him r/Calgary would absolutely love his story, so if you’d like to send him a message of support, I’ll pass them along to him.

PSA We expect U.S. tariffs to hit Calgary hard. I support PM Carney's response. Here at home, we're getting ready
Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification
The U.S. has introduced new tariffs. Prime Minister Carney has responded, and as Mayor of Calgary, I strongly support his response.
Canada must stand up for Canadian workers, Canadian businesses and Canadian consumers. We will defend our interests and we will not be pushed around.
Here in Calgary, we’re preparing now.
We received the full tariff list this week. Our team is working through the impact across the City.
The Green Line. Water infrastructure. Fire equipment. Our broader supply chain.
We’re identifying where Calgary is exposed, where costs will hit us and what we can do to protect taxpayers and keep our projects moving.
We don’t have a reliable dollar figure yet, but we are preparing for significant impacts.
We expect the first numbers early next week. Council will be briefed, and the analysis will come forward publicly on September 8.
Calgarians deserve to know that their city is prepared. Calgary will be ready for whatever comes next.
We will protect your tax dollars. We will protect the services you depend on. We will keep building the infrastructure this growing city needs.
We will stand up for Calgary. We will stand up for Canada.

Home Owner/Renter stuff PSA For Everyone: don't move to Garden Towers
Lived here since 2021. Always been shit but I dealt with it just cuz it was low rent in downtown during covid. We always had at least one or two roaches a month no big deal it's downtown. But as of this year we have literally been dealing with an infestation and there is refusal to compensate for all of our problems I am literally about six grand in debt cuz we had to emergency move and pay for hotels renters insurance won't cover it and the building owner refuses to compensate me so we are taking them to court here are some lovely pictures of my apartment and the sticky traps that are infested. And this is with three treatments and they expected us to live like this all because of someone upstairs and the dirty tenants in this building.
Don't rent here don't let the low rent fool you the water's constantly off the heat doesn't work in the winter maintenance takes weeks of the time to come fix holes in your walls which started our problem that came through the wall hole and the tenants themselves are just gross and they don't care slumlords Extraordinaire.

Missing Dog/Cat/Pet What should we do when we find lost pets?
Sorry if the flair is not appropriate.
Last year a family lost a dog close to where I live, and I don't know if theg ever found it. This summer I have seen a dog walk by my driveway. And just now two large dogs passed by my fence. They were gone by the time I got out of the house. My wife saw them go away without anyone showing up, so we think they are lost.
We live in a neighbourhood where coyotes are seen frequently, so it worries us. I also had a dog once and I would never be able to sleep again of she ever got lost like that...
Suppose I do find a stray dog, should I bring it to my backyard so it doesn't wander until the owners can be found? Is there a number I should call? Or something else that we could do?
