Calgary and Edmonton are the 2 biggest cities in Alberta, Canada. The question is which one is better to live in, Calgary or Edmonton? Why?
What are the pros and cons of Calgary vs Edmonton.
As someone who has lived in both cities for more than 3 years and is still living in Calgary:
- Weather: you have more sunshine and less harsh winter in Calgary with occasional positive temperature in the middle of the winter because of the Chinook winds: Calgary wins
- Cost of life: Edmonton rent, home ownership, food, clothing is slightly cheaper than same items in Calgary: Edmonton wins
- Job Opportunities: more blue collar jobs in Edmonton, more white collar jobs in Calgary: tie
- Education: Edmonton has one of the top university in Canada called University of Alberta. University of Calgary has a first class business school called Hayskane school of business. Edmonton wins.
- City’s architecture: Calgary seems newer, nicely architected and just more beautiful to me by far: Calgary wins
- People: just the same to me, no difference: tie
- Size and population: Calgary (1.3 million people, 825 km2) is larger and have more people than Edmonton (1 million people, 684 km2): I won’t call this a win
- Mountains and lakes : Banff National Park, Lake Louise, Jasper National Park, Waterton Lakes National Park, are all closer to Calgary than Edmonton: Calgary Wins
- Summer festivities: Both cities have great and similar festivals, but Calgary hosts the greatest western festival on earth in July called the Stampede. Calgary wins.
- Sunshine: Calgary has way more sunshine that Edmonton. In fact, Calgary is amongst the top city with sunshine exposure in the entire country. Sunshine is happiness. Calgary wins.
- Politics: Both cities are economically conservative. Edmonton is a little bit more socially liberal than Calgary. Who cares? Tie.
- Sports: Flames(NHL)and Stampeders(CFL)in Calgary, Oiler(NHL) and Eskimos(CFL) in Edmonton. Several amateur leagues, indoor and outdoor facilities for soccer, hockey, basketball, football and baseball in both cities; ShowUpAndPlay in Calgary, ShowUpAndPlay in Edmonton : Tie
- Bars and Pubs: Cowboys in Calgary, Black dog free house in Edmonton are the most populars. Cowboy culture in both cities but not violent, no guns. Tie ( The 10 Best Nightclubs in Calgary , The Best Nightlife in Edmonton – TripAdvisor )
- Downton: See Calgary Downtown inRealTimeNow.com. See Edmonton inRealTimeNow.com They are both vibrant and Nice: Tie
- Cleanliness: Calgary is one of the cleanness cities in the world. I am in awe myself whenever I walk downtown and in my neighbourhood of Walden. Calgary wins by far.
With all that in mind, I’ll choose Calgary any day.

Looks like a crew checking for unlocked vehicles, spotted Calgary Trail GoodLife Fitness parking lot. 5’5” male with short blue hair and beard walking around checking every single vehicle while shoppers/families are walking around and/or sitting in their vehicles. 3-4 other people sat waiting for him in the Ram truck and appeared to do a circle scoping the place out & then to go pick him up at the end of a row to start again at another.

I am wondering if anyone out there knows where I can get about 17 yards of landscaping wood chips for a competitive price. I am in the deep SE of Calgary I know Burnco has 1 yard bags.... yes Canadain tire has sacks... I am looking for a bulk deal, I want to cover our old dog run and plant some trees in there. I already have gravel down so I was going to cover the existing gravel with weed barrier and then chip. The barrier under the gravel is pretty old and isn't stopping much anymore. I really hate to spray for weeds and the size of the area makes picking them a neverending battle at this point. I am going to put in some elevated planters and trees to fill in the area. Any bulk price suggestions? KNow a guy with a dump truck? Know a guy with a dump trailer that wouldn't mind making a couple trips? submitted by /u/RootbeerEyedDog [link] [comments]

Disclaimer: I do not condone crime and I believe that every crime deserves an appropriate punishment both to teach the criminal right and wrong as well as to ensure victims get justice. A young person I know from volunteer work was recently arrested and will likely end up there. It’s incredibly hard to find good information online on what Canadian prison facilities are like, particularly youth prisons. I was wondering if anyone here has any experience with EYOC (as an inmate, employee, volunteer, relative of any of the above, etc.) they’d be confortable sharing that I can pass on to him to prepare him. submitted by /u/Silent_Potential_241 [link] [comments]

- Rehoming a 14y/o senior cat in YEGby /u/CatThrowAway12345678 (Stories from in and about Edmonton) on June 26, 2022 at 6:52 pm
Hello, I tried my best to give a full picture here of why I am in need of rehoming this cat and not to leave out any important details. I recently took in a senior cat from a family who was moving in 2 days and needed to find a place for her. The cat is 14.5 years old, orange Tabby. The family had to relocate homes and could not find accommodation to take the senior cat along with their 3 other pets and other belongings. I did not do my due diligence and request medical records. The exchange was quick and I was home with the cat the next day. Turns out I am allergic to the cat which was a surprise as I have catsit and fostered for 1 month+ at a time. I live in a small 1 room condo so cannot isolate her (and I would feel awful if I did anyway). Had normal move stress symptoms which resolved, but after about a week, the cat was throwing up, lethargic and was leaking fluid (I now know is urine). As I was concerned I asked the previous owner who let me know that she hasn't taken the cat to a vet in years, and stated a few times that the cat has never ever been sick. I took the cat to the vet, and all the bloodwork/urinalysis came back showing nothing exceptional. The culture test returned no indication of a UTI which was initially suspected. The good thing is she has now been fully checked by a veterinarian and everything is within normal levels regarding her health. I do not have the vaccine or deworming history. The cat has Urinary Incontinence which the previous owner says was not present before the rehoming. More tests can be done to figure out why, but I cannot afford them. They prescribed Prion which I picked up, but I cannot for the life of me get her to take it, either through wet food, treats or straight-up pilling (I am not experienced with pilling but am trying). The urinary incontinence is at the point where I am sick and my allergies have worsened. It is not a behavioural issue, her sphincter just cannot hold it in and drips when she walks/pools when she sleeps. My small condo cannot accommodate a cat with urinary incontinence, and my own health is taking a hit. I do not want to isolate her in a cage, but also cannot let her free roam in my apartment any longer. Other than incontinence, the cat is lovely. She likes to be around you, sleeps by your feet at night, and is all around a chill cat. She is not aggressive whatsoever. She is declawed so cannot be an outdoor cat. She is spayed, and medical records are available showing everything is normal. She does have gum disease but the vet said it is not an issue now. I am wondering how the incontinence began all of a sudden. I am not aware of stress-induced incontinence. Would environmental factors play a role here? Would the stress of the move after living in the same house for her whole life with the same people and pets (dog is 13 or so) cause incontinence? I am not sure if the issue would resolve if she is in another home, and not sure if Prion would need to be administered for the rest of her life or not (or if it will even work as I have only gotten her to take the meds once). I have contacted many shelters and everywhere has a waiting list. My friend made posts on facebook groups/her page (I do not use facebook), and the previous owner says she is waiting to hear from others. The humane society said she was not approved for surrender and would be euthanized if taken there. I have been looking for a new home privately for about 10 days but nothing yet. Sorry for the long post. I am just hoping someone can help or give some advice. Please DM me if you are interested in hearing more about the cat and I will do my best to provide that information. submitted by /u/CatThrowAway12345678 [link] [comments]

- We need the 4th car back on the CTrain!by /u/TotoMac1 (Calgary: Onward) on June 26, 2022 at 6:16 pm
Ive been taking Calgary transit throughout this whole year and I’ve been noticing that its been getting more and more busy, which only means that the train gets more packed full of people. For anyone who has noticed, since Covid, they removed the 4th car on the trains, so there were only 3 cars per train. But now that things are picking up again, I really think that the 4th car really needs to be back. Not sure if anyone else is feeling like this needs to happen as well, but I think its ridiculous how many people are squeezed into the train during rush hours. submitted by /u/TotoMac1 [link] [comments]

I’m working out of town and I had to call EPS for a wellness check on my significant other last night. They responded immediately, detained him (it was involuntary) and brought him to a nearby hospital. I feel awful and guilty. I felt like I had no other options. It's been years of instability with zero support from his family. Does anyone have insight on what might happen next? I've already informed my supervisor that I have a family emergency. They are supportive and will help me get home as soon as possible if necessary. I was able to make contact with the hospital, they said they are waiting on an assessment right now. I’m not familiar with the process, if anyone has an idea of what might happen next, it would be super appreciated. Thanks! submitted by /u/okaythisisreallydumb [link] [comments]

Friend in Shawnessy has been victim of multiple vandalism / attempted b&e(?) over the last two weeks, her house has been hit three times but she got wise after attempt two and installed cameras. The guy keeps trying to get in the front door by kicking it and has done a drive by throwing things at the windows and breaking them too. Unfortunately there's no clear face shot in the footage, but it might be enough to trigger someone's familiarity just to see the way the guy walks, the clothes he's got on etc. Any insights anyone has, would be greatly appreciated. She said no one in their home recognizes him... I will add a link for the video and still frame.. It's giving me issues at the moment. Edit : I can't seem to get imgur to upload the video and freeze frames. Any recommendations for a site to post them on would be really great. As for a few questions - she's lived in the house for over a decade, so it would not be something like a mistaken identity or wrong address etc. She has video and stills, and she does not recognize the guy, nor do any of the other people who live in the house. It's not a disgruntled ex. submitted by /u/Resting_burtch_face [link] [comments]

- My first day in Calgaryby /u/Filda_Dilda (Calgary: Onward) on June 26, 2022 at 12:52 am
Hey, I just moved to Calgary from Czech Republic few days ago for WH and I want to share the wholesome story of my few first hours here. I arrived at the airport, went for my work permit and then I had to find a way to my place where i stay. I jumped onto bus 300 and I was supposed to take off at a certain bus stop, but because of long travel (24 hours), I was exhausted, didn't pay attention and ended up downtown. I had no internet on my phone, so I was quite lost (I could walk tho, but the place is located in NW and it was a 1 hour walk). I found a bus stop and went there, looking for some information. Then a Guy noticed me and asked me where I'm from so I told him why I'm here and that I got lost. He then asked me where i'm supposed to go and together we found on his phone how to get there. I had no ticket and no app, so he kindly explained situation to the bus driver and the bus driver took me in without ticket. I had to change buses in one bus stop, so the guy waited there with me until the bus arrived and explained once again my situation to the bus driver. Then he said that this bus will take me to my place, we said farewell and i took the bus. I talked with the bus driver for the whole time and he was wholesome as well. He told me where to take off and then, I finally arrived at the right place. Is it normal here that people are nice here or was it just a lucky coincidence ? Because Iam not used to it and was quite shocked that anyone can be so wholesome and helpful Guys name was Farid and he was more than 70+years old submitted by /u/Filda_Dilda [link] [comments]

Two weeks ago today, I decided to drive up to Calgary from Glacier National Park. I had never been to Canada before but figured it was only a 3 hour drive from my campsite. I had a blast exploring your beautiful city by day and partying by night. I wanted to write this to thank everyone that showed me kindness and great Canadian hospitality. I really enjoyed my entire trip, from having an amazing dinner to the people that showed me a really amazing night in Calgary. Hell, I even got to see some of that sunshine and clear skies that are hard to come by there. I never thought that this underrated city could show me an epxerience I would only expect a city like Vancouver or Toronto to provide. All of my expectations were blown out of the water and I will be returning very soon. Thank you all so much for everything. submitted by /u/crateofpotatoes [link] [comments]
