Alberta Premier Danielle Smith and Calgary Mayor Jeromy Farkas traded barbs this weekend with Smith criticizing changes to some Stampede-related noise permit conditions and Farkas hitting out at Smith over a “last-minute” beer price hike.
In a post to X on Saturday, Smith charged that “ fun police have struck again in Calgary” after the city made adjustments to noise exemption permit times and allowable decibel levels that would restrict noise at the Calgary Stampede and require events to end earlier.
