City of Calgary ignored two decades of warning signs about water system, report finds
January 7, 2026

The panel of industry experts was formed to investigate a June, 2024, break along the city’s Bearspaw South Feeder Main, which carries roughly 60 per cent of Calgary’s potable water. The failure prompted a local state of emergency that forced residents to follow various levels of water restrictions for months.
