I'm not 100% sure either but it was probably due to extremely high sediment load, ie: the river was carrying large sized rocks and high impact collisions with rocks creating the falls eventually gave way.

Valid point. But there is no train there. They had to leave the area to get free transport to dealers. They are not high ballin' addicts. No dealer will make a trip to them. Dealers are by the train line.
Now they are a walk across the street to the their drug line. They are fucking loving it. The benches in front of the Kerby Center are very popular.
You think you have it rough. They are bulding temporary classrooms for the students from Elbow Park School in Mount Royal. Now the folks there have to live with less green space, screaming kids and their parents nice vehicles during drop-off/pick-up hours yikes!
Herald story and Global story - looks like this will take some of the heat off of the west-end nimby's.Originally posted by lilmira

Just think of the children.
Hell, bus them all up to my community as probably 97% of the kids in the two elementary schools here are already bused or driven into/out community (non-community kids). Another 220, that's only 5-6 buses or 200 of so cars - big deal. It was gridlock last year with 23 out of area buses, next year it's going to be 29, so what's another 5-6. And besides that, the portables will provide another place for some local grafitti artists to brush up on their mad skillz.
Really, I find it quite amusing that that some Mount Royal residents are so up in arms about a handful of buses or maybe some more vehicles and for my west-end buddy, if we could take your problem off of your hands, I'd surely offer - problem is that there is no facility in our community that can provide such a service. But just think, at some point they'll be gone and you'll probably have an art gallery in that place - something most communities don't have or will ever have.
Will fuck off, again.
Sorry, double post.

Yeah I found that funny that 200 kids made the news but not 200 drug addicts.Originally posted by speedog

And you are right, I'm sure that space will become something nice. I'm sure that the Alpha House stay won't be permanent like the knife wound that a guy waiting for the train got on his stomach when a group of Alpha House clients tried to rob him last week. That story did not make the news but I heard it from two separate business owners in the area. Would explain the ambulance and cops that were by the Good Earth café.
Apparently, Rod Love isn't even a spokesperson for Mount Royal Community Association. He just lives there and claims he's a spokesperson lol. So in defence of rich ppl there, I think it's just Rob Love being a douche.

Someday we may need to activate the halo structure off Deerfoot and destroy the North East.
Wonder if last night's stabbing had anything to do with Alpha House. Haven't seen a stabbing/murder here in a long time since Crack Mac's have been cleaned up.Originally posted by frizzlefry

I saw that earlier on the Environment canada weather site. Now it listed:Originally posted by Cos
So 100mm of heavy rainfall this weekend, 25% more snowpack than average in kananaskis. Are we in for a repeat?
SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT ENDED
Apparently they decided they didn't want more flooding and refused to accept the weather? Now they're calling for 5-10mm
I'm curious to see what happens this spring, there is a lot of snow in the mountains still

Last time Kay's grocery in the heart of the flood zone was open for business, lots of water, no one in the store. No mark-ups etc. All the while suburbanites miles away from the flooding were losing their minds and buying up all the water they could at marked up prices. They are a flighty breed...
The amount of runoff for the near future will be the usual amounts. Nothing extraordinary about rain in May or June, its not coming from the East like it did last year and the rain will likely fall as snow in the mountains.
People need to relax.
