WS VIEWS: The city that forgot fun — Calgary’s midnight curfew on Stampede concerts
Calgary used to know what it was. A fun city. It was not a place where the first instinct of city hall was to reach for the sound meter, the clipboard, and the stern little memo. It was a place of oilfield grit, Western swagger, pancakes at dawn, and music after dark. It was the city that threw a party big enough for the world to notice.
