About this episode
A break in the city's main water pipe has left Calgary under severe restrictions for over two weeks, raising concerns about water usage and the potential impact on the city's premier summer festival, the Stampede. Calgary Herald reporter Scott Strasser joins Dave Breakenridge to discuss the cause of the pipe failure, how the city is handling the situation, and whether there is a risk of the taps running dry.
