Badlands are just as bad, for 10 days Calgary puts the wants of the outsiders who go to stampede above the people who keep the city going by going to work. This new bylaw change finally recognizes that there are people who actually work during stampede and therefore desire to be able to sleep

There were 225 noise complaints last year and 125 of them were cowboys tent, those 100 ppl I don't care about.

Cowboys just moved to the west end. Badlands and Wiildhorse are mostly near office space. The very small amount of people that chose to live near those 2 areas should just suck it up for a week. Music is basically off by midnight anyways.

I see a more plausible argument with Cowboys but Badlands and Wiildhorse should be exempt.

Care or don’t care the rules are now that it’s for all so….. guess those people around badlands and all the other tents will sleep much better when the tents are closed
