City crews continue search for source of 'catastrophic' water main break

Source of break could take days to identify, mayor says

In this case, the affected water main is called the Bearspaw South Feeder Main, which Mackay called the "most critical" in Calgary's water system as it moves water to east and south parts of the city, away from the city's largest water treatment plant in north Calgary.

"If we are being very, very optimistic, and they can remove the water from the site and actually get in there and have a look at what's going on, it is possible that within the next day to two days they can identify the problem," Gondek said.

Seems like Australia is finally waking up!
One Nation sure sounds a lot like Canada’s PPC. Wouldn’t it be great if Canadians could wake the hell up and figure out that they could vote for a party that actually shares their values like Aussies seem to be doing.

Alberta’s future belongs to Albertans—not Ottawa.

That’s Maxime Bernier’s message on his Alberta tour. He’s calling for radical decentralization: getting Ottawa out of provincial affairs and putting decisions back in the hands of the provinces — and closer to the people who live with the consequences.

MAX’S MESSAGE: OTTAWA, GET OUT OF PROVINCIAL AFFAIRS.

Tonight, Max makes his case live from Calgary, joined by Isaias Nolasco of New Generation PPC, Nadine Wellwood Autor of Alberta Rising, and Madison and MayCee Holmes, co-hosts of At Home with Holmes.
