Kind of torn here, the world needs more bees and they don't seem to be aggressive (yet) but I'm really not interested in dodging a swarm everytime I go out the front door.
Might sound stupid but is there any service that will remove a hive and relocate it?
And no, I'm not going to kill it with fire.

There are several. Most of the ones I'm familiar with tend to do swarm removals, though that doesn't sound like it's your problem here. You have a hive, not a swarm.
However, I'd still start with the folks at https://calgarybeekeepers.com/ Calgary and District Beekeepers Association. If they can't help, they ought to be able to point you in the right direction.

Not stupid at all. If you’re on Facebook or know someone who is, post an inquiry on one of the Calgary chat groups. I guarantee there are beekeepers who will come for them. Edit: just saw the type of bees. Now I’m not sure.

How many marked sedans does Calgary Police Service have left? It seems I only ever see Ford Explorers or F-150s now. I think I've maybe seen a ghost Charger somewhere in the last while, but no sedans.

Every police vehicle in north america requires the option to install a 50 cal turret, or so I assume. That's just future proofing, and good economic policy.

I was clearing out a closet and found a box way in the back that had a bottle of Crown Royal. Okay I said until looked closer and saw the ALCB date stamp of 1973. I was wondering if anyone could tell me if there is any extra to this 50 year old bottle whisky.

That's cool as hell, Dion. Crazy how they've kept the bottle the same for so many years.
