Weren't both Calgary and Edmonton on record setting paces in 2008 for murders.
I guess Calgary jumped out of the gates quick in 2009.

What a drag about Bolsa. I go there with the wife and kids once a week. Must have really freaked out the husband and wife who run the place.

No, it is just north of Rona on Macleod. Shares the same parking spot as the Regal Beagal.

The scary thing is how brazen these are becoming - this was a triple murder executed in broad daylight just off one of the busiest streets in Calgary. Its' only a matter of time until someone innocent gets killed. We already had that one young man from Brazil lose his eye sight.
