“It impacts the communities not only because they will be losing a good source of good-paying jobs, but as well it continues that centralization of services."

“The province has approved a new flood mitigation project for Canmore that will help ensure public safety and lower the risk of flood damage, like that experienced in 2013."

“I think it’s important that the safety of our staff and our clients is our number one priority.”

"It’s nice to have something that’s keeping us a little bit more sustainable – that’s why it started. Hopefully if anyone else wants to do it, they get into it for that reason.”

“It is a very difficult situation, not only for our community, but for a number of similar communities."

Many Canmore residents have walked along the pathway adjacent to Policeman's Creek past three parcels of residential property that sit tucked away along a laneway behind Railway Court. The owners of the land have requested the municipality sell them a portion of a nearby unused road allowance in order to develop three homes in that location.

“The key is to support students as they navigate their own paths."

The current heliport lease term ends on Nov. 30, 2021 and Alpine Helicopters Inc. has asked to renew that lease, however the terms of the lease are still to be negotiated and council will host a town hall for the community's feedback as well.
