In Calgary, you can put up something for a maximum of a year, and it may be removed by the city before that if it poses a hazard. They also aren't allowed on roads with a speed limit of 70 km/h or higher.

You can get a discreet marker installed on a streetlight location near the site of the incident or have a permanent marker placed on a bench or something nearby.

Tell that to the memorial on southbound Deerfoot at the Southland overpass. That memorial has been up for 25 years. It's totally obnoxious and selfish.
