Park to practice biking

My wife wants to practice biking as we haven't really biked and probably need to brush up. Any recommendations? Plus points in the NW

What free stuff can you get on your birthday in Calgary?

Here's what I know of:

  • Starbucks drink (requires registration)
  • Chicken on the Way - 2pc chicken meal
  • Denny's - $12 worth of food

Anything you can add? I'll edit OP with updates

Good quality salmon that isn't expensive

Hi, I'm trying to make salmon sashimi or at least tartare. Anyone know where I can get some here in Calgary?

Wild caught salmon quality
  • There was a thread on this on the alien site a couple of years back. These are farmed salmon of lower quality (and is dirt cheap). Costco has a higher quality salmon that they sell, but it's more expensive.

  • Will Canada remain an attractive destination for immigrants?
  • As an immigrant myself, yes. It is very attractive just by the fact that Canada's government isn't 100% corrupt and it's honestly very family friendly. Sure, there are problems, but they pale in comparison to a lot of other countries'.

    It took me 5 months to find a good job (that wasn't service) - so competition is tough and the initial steps are ridiculously expensive, but it's all good. Infrastructure and systems are suffering right now, but in the next 20 years, I'm confident it will catch up.

    The Community search box doesn't find other communities

    Hi, I noticed that the community search function doesn't work that well. Sometimes I can find communities I'm looking for, but other times I can't; even when I know they exist on other instances. Are these just part of the growing pains?

    • Arkham Horror LCG - excellent narrative and great deck construction
    • Frosthaven - epic battles with clever cardplay
    • Terraforming Mars: Ares, Crisis Expansion - engine building in the TfM world
    • Skytear Horde - tense back and forth card battler with a good AI system
