I scootered around downtown Calgary for two hours. I was assaulted on four occasions, accosted twice, asked for chance three times (one asked for 20 bucks, can you believe it) and looked at seven times by scary looking people. Someone even had their shirt off walking around even though it was hot. It absolutely ruined everything I know about Calgary and now I know it's a violent hellhole that needs saving and probably a walk around it too.
Actually that may not have happened, but I was consuming copious amounts of national post newspapers and truth bombs from X on my phone that morning.
