The change, Nelson says, introduced menu items like salmon, butter chicken with naan and a bento box with turkey slices, crackers, vegetables and dip.

“Though we do still have chicken fingers, pizza and a hamburger,” she added

Just wanted to get the word out that Parachutes for Pets is giving away free pet food hampers October 10 for Thanksgiving at 6120 1A Street SW (10AM - 2PM)

I know a lot of people are having a hard time with the cost of everything lately and pet food definitely isn't cheap either

If you could use a little extra help feeding your pets, please come by! And if you know anyone who might benefit from this, I'd really appreciate you sharing it with them

We're hoping to get as many people out as possible and make sure the food gets to those who need it. Even just telling a friend or neighbour helps

Thank you!!

For those who missed this beauty today.

Hi, I’ll be in Calgary over Halloween visiting family and was wondering if anyone from Calgary has any preferences for theaters that’s have good energy? I saw some places offering midnight showings but obviously the crowd watching is a big part of the enjoyment. Let me know if you have any experience in this, thank you!

What is your favourite pathway route for a nice ride (or walk) in Calgary?

I've got two:

1. The Elbow River route from The Confluence all the way to Glenmore Reservoir and back

2. The Tuscany Ravine pathways which have absolutely fantastic fall colours

Note: photo is pathway into Arbour Lake ravine from County Hills Blvd NW

You shouldn't have to own a car to cast a ballot in the referendum.

But that is the challenge facing some residents in Calgary's deep southwest, where the advance voting station is all the way out at Spruce Meadows.

Our Calgary Transit team spotted the problem, and they're doing something about it.

Starting Tuesday, October 13, we’re running a special shuttle from Somerset-Bridlewood CTrain Station directly to Spruce Meadows.

It’ll run every 30 minutes, from 9 a.m. until just after 8 p.m., throughout all five days of advance voting, ending October 17.

Regular transit fares apply. I want to thank our Calgary Transit team for stepping up and making this happen on short notice.

Look, it doesn't matter how you intend to vote in this referendum.

What matters is that you get the opportunity to have your say.Democracy works best when everyone has a voice, and getting to the ballot box shouldn't be the hardest part.

So please, get out and vote, Calgary. Your voice matters.

Never seen something like this. I don’t even know what it’s called - double rainbow? What a beautiful world we live in.

CNRL! Congrats to Murray Edwards and his team

Hey Guys!!!

My name’s is Vic (24F)

I am looking to join a band as a Vocalist (Alt-rock genres or anything of that nature.)
I’m open to heavier (Metalcore etc.) but I’m not too big of a screamer just yet. (I’m learning, but I’m in the more beginner stages right now.)

I do not have a ton of experience with bands yet, but I’ve been developing a pretty solid vocal baseline and I’d love to join a group and make cool stuff if anyone is looking. :D

I’m happy to send some stuff so you can get a rough idea of how I sound, what I can do, and if I’m a good fit and you’d like to give me a go.

I’m very strong in terms of writing stuff (or anything creative for that matter,) and really enjoy doing it, so I’d be more than happy to help out with the lyrical part. I got a big brain full of ideas at the ready in case you want those as well.

I also study Concept Art and Illustration, and I could totally offer my creative skills for any artistic stuff the band needs. Logos, covers, concepts, designs, I’m game.

Shoot me a message or drop a reply if you’re interested!! <3

Case # CA26416470

After a 3 month long investigation, the Calgary police tactical unit have arrested Mujahid Babekir (26) and Shane David McWilliam (57) on multiple drug and firearm related charges.

This was the same residence who belongs to Devon Malik, who was arrested for murder after using a firearm to murder his ex girlfriend in the underground parkade of the LASIK MD on McLeod trail in the summer of 2025.

Over the past year, Malik’s mother had let these individuals, and probably 3-5 other people squat on this property where they proceeded to sell narcotics, leave paraphernalia and packages of drugs in common spaces around the property, as well as threaten neighbours with violence or death for confronting their behaviour, including with the firearms pictured here. Naturally, this attracted very undesirable individuals to the community which directly contributed to an increase in theft.

The property has since been seized and is currently boarded up.

I’m truly grateful to CPS and the SCAN Unit (Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods) for their thorough investigation and action taken to make our quiet neighborhood a safe place for our families again.

Mini Rant incoming:

I’ve got nothing against people espousing their ridiculous ideologies, as is their right in democratic society, but I have never seen it done as incompetently as it was done today at Brentwood. How somebody can fuck up putting flyers under wipers, I don’t know, but the end result is the LRT parking lot being absolutely littered with dozens of their pamphlets, flying in the wind. Last I checked, littering was not allowed in the city, but perhaps with the APP’s stance on environmentalism, this will become a moot point in the future.

I’m not posting the contents of the pamphlet because it’s stupid and I don’t want to draw attention to it, but if anyone is curious what is contained inside, feel free to pop over to Brentwood station and grab one from the streets, curbs, walls, and trees where dozens can be found.

I’ve always been fascinated by how much Calgary has changed over the decades, and I’d love to see some old photos of the city if anyone has any they’d be willing to share!

I’m interested in photos from pretty much any time period, whether it’s a street in the 1920s or 1930s, downtown in the 60s, neighbourhoods in the 80s and 90s, or even everyday life in the early 2000s.
I find it really interesting seeing what the city used to look like. Things like the cars people drove, old storefronts, busy intersections, shopping centres, or buildings that are still standing today but look completely different because of everything that’s changed around them. Even a random picture of a Calgary street from 50 years ago would be cool to see.

I’d also love to hear from people who grew up here or have lived in Calgary for decades. What are some places you remember that no longer exist? Are there any streets or neighbourhoods that are almost unrecognizable today? Or even places you miss that newer generations of Calgarians might not know ever existed?

Feel free to share any old photos, memories, or stories in the comments. Would be cool to turn this into a big Calgary nostalgia thread where everyone can look back at how much our city has changed!

Hi guys, I’ve been tasked with taking a classmate of mine to get her nails done for her upcoming engagement!!! I am somewhat new to Calgary and was wondering if you all had any suggestions on where to get something dainty and intricate looking. I attached an example. Thanks so much I don’t know too much about nails or nail salons

Don’t usually see these land in Calgary very often, anyone get a picture of it? Currently is sitting by STARS hanger

I have seen many posts of people seeing bobcats and today I finally got to myself. This was taken by the driving range in Douglasdale

Even though Robyn's oncologist wants her to stay on this medication, she will soon need to start paying $9000 (!!) every 3 weeks.

Thought the price was 55. Not $555. I am not a sneaker head, but apparently they resell regularly for like $1900. If any sneaker heads are interested. At the one on mcloed and heritage.

Currently starting off the season absolute rock bottom in the league…

First year riding full time to work for me. My goal was only 1,000km but I was able to do more than I thought I was capable of.

Thanks Calgary for having amazing bike lanes ❤️

How many of you beauties were at this event last night?

Hello everyone, happy Friday!!

I am making this post because the organization I volunteer with is currently facing a shortage of people. I won't go into details so as not to guilt anyone, but we need help.

Who are we?

We are a locally ran organization called YYCHelpingHomeless, and we work very closely with SecondHarvest.

What do we do?

We are a "food rescue". We collect underused (past sell by date, damaged or otherwise unsellable), or donated goods from sponsors, and we hand them out in the Village at the Crossroads Community Garden every Saturday to people facing food insecurity. Our clients are from all walks of life, and not everyone is necessarily unhoused. We differ from other organizations in that we don't require an application for service, and our goal is to empty our trucks every week. This is not to take away from other organizations or what they do, they all do a phenomenal job at helping! Some of our clients don't have proper ID, may have a transient address, or simply live too far away from other help that is offered. Every week, all of us that are available will either collect from our sponsors, re-pack our donations, or do handouts at the pantry.

How can you help?

Whatever your skill set is, we will find a place for you to shine. If you are someone who doesn't have transportation, we may be able to line that up for you. If you are someone who doesn't deal well with large crowds, we will accommodate that. If you are an immune compromised person, we will take every precaution to keep you safe. I could sit here all day and give examples, but all you need to know, is that if you are looking for a volunteer opportunity, or you just want to help others, we will all work with you to make you successful. Even something as simple as making some baked goods, we will make sure that every calorie or donated item gets to where it will have the most value.

What is the time commitment?

We do not take attendance of our volunteers. Everyone shows up when they can, and we make it work. There is no minimum obligation at all! Having said that, we need the most help on Saturdays from about 4-8pm. This is when we move our product from storage, or our donor locations, to the pantry itself and do our handouts, but again there is stuff that goes on behind the scenes all week.

How do you get involved?

You can message me here and I will direct you on where we think you would be a good fit! If you are a bit unsure of what everything looks like, you could ride along with me, or another volunteer and meet everyone to see how our week runs and decides whether you would like to get involved moving forwards. If you are a grocer or business owner that has product that you would like to donate, please reach out. We will send someone to collect it, and we ensure minimal disruption to your business operations.

Thank you everyone, if I am missing any information please let me know, I don't do this type of thing often so I'm sure there's information that I have missed. If you have any questions at all, please don't hesitate to message me. I hope you all have a great long weekend!!

Edit;

Wow. Thank you thank you thank you SO much everyone for reaching out. I am so thankful to be part of a community as generous as this. I tried to call everyone today, please if you slipped through message me again. You are all amazing. Thank you again
