Yes in general terms that is a valid answer to why we dont have late night eats now. But I highly doubt that if there was no labour shortage, things would be any different.

Calgary has always been like this, long before the current labour shortage. We have never had much in the way of late night options in this city. Our labour shortage has been like this only for the last couple of years. Calgary has been limited for late night eats even 10-15 years ago.
