With Covid restrictions gone, what’s next for Calgary protesters, asks Coun. Walcott

With few provincial public health restrictions remaining, Ward 8 Coun. Courtney Walcott wonders if there will be a protest through the Beltline this Saturday.

If so, he wonders further what the motivation is now.

Protesters have been clogging Beltline streets throughout the pandemic, forcing many to rethink outdoor plans on those days.  Late last month, Walcott encouraged area residents and businesses to file a complaint with Calgary 311 when protests happened.  

Numbers spiked.

This past weekend, there was another Beltline protest. Calgary 311 numbers spiked again, according to City of Calgary open data. This one included a counter-protest. A smoke bomb was set off.
