Funny thing about that. Seems like it's been an ongoing problem for a while.

Calgary loses billions of litres of drinking water a year due to leaks, according to a new report.
The report from the City of Calgary indicates that 22 per cent of its water was lost in 2022 — and 88 per cent of it was because of water leaks.
The unaccounted for water that year alone equates to approximately 31.6 billion litres.
In Edmonton, only 5 per cent of the city’s water was lost from leaks in 2022, according to the same report.
The CEO of Build Calgary says he’s been writing the city about the problem for some time and highlighted the number in a recent letter.
