WATCH ABOVE: Mayor Jyoti Gondek on Tuesday announced that Calgary is “one giant step closer to returning to full water usage,” adding that residents can now return to “regular indoor water usage,” but would like residents to "ease into it."Nearly one month after Calgary’s water supply crisis began, the city’s mayor announced “much needed good news” on Tuesday, telling citizens they could resume normal water usage indoors but pleaded with them to “ease” into that usage.
While the city had never restricted indoor water use, officials have pleaded with Calgarians for weeks to conserve water indoors so that the city’s supply does not run out. Restrictions on outdoor water use and a fire ban remained in effect on Tuesday. McIver noted that Calgarians should remember “we’re not completely out of the woods yet,” even if Tuesday’s announcement offered a “bit of relief.”
McIver noted that the crisis has been “an unexpected expense,” one he expects to be “a large one,” and said he anticipates the city will reach out to the province to discuss the financial cost associated with the crisis.Chinese woman arrested after allegedly trying to smuggle 29 turtles into Canada
