The amount of misinformation in this thread is baffling and concerning if anyone is reading this thread for any sort of legal advice.
From the Calgary Herald article linked in the OP:

Are you disputing this point? If so, please provide a link to support your claim. I would also suggest you write to the editor of the Herald and ask them to print a correction if their reporting is inaccurate.
