Mount Pleasant Community

🚨 🚨 The Bow and Elbow rivers are above safe levels, and the Calgary Fire Department has issued a boating advisory that is now in effect. Please stay off the river for your safety and for emergency responders.

High, fast-moving water, cold temperatures, and debris are creating dangerous conditions, with poor visibility making hazards harder to spot. Pathway and underpass closures along the Bow and Elbow Rivers are expected to begin this weekend.

Visit https://brnw.ch/21x2WVg for more information as well as https://brnw.ch/21x2WVf for the latest information on river conditions.

If you love them, don't leave them! As temperatures climb, so do the calls for dogs in distress left in vehicles. The temperature inside a vehicle can rise to dangerous levels in as little as a few minutes. A partially open window does not effectively lower a vehicle’s interior temperature, nor does the availability of water. 🛑 Never leave an animal unattended inside a vehicle on a warm or hot day, even for a short time.

☎️ If you see an animal alone in a vehicle on a warm or hot day, call 911 immediately. Be prepared to provide your location & the vehicle’s licence plate number, make & model & a brief description.

🗣️ You can also report an animal left inside a hot vehicle to the Calgary Humane Society by calling 403-205-4455.
