Three Metro Vancouver men are paying the price for some boorish behaviour at a Port Moody restaurant.

Police say the three were issued multiple tickets totalling about seven hundred dollars in fines on Saturday night.

Staff called police when the three, who police say were impaired, violated COVID-19 rules, refused to sit at their table, entered a staff-only area, shouted, vomited on their table and spat on it when asked to leave.

A statement from police says their first step is to educated the public about respect for COVID-19 rules, but the actions of the men left no choice but to impose fines.

Calgary city councillors are set to receive and discuss a long-awaited independent report examining repeated failures of a major watermain that supplies drinking water to much of the city. The report focuses on the Bearspaw South Feeder Main, a critical piece of infrastructure that delivers treated water to roughly 60 per cent of Calgary residents. The line first ruptured in the summer of 2024, triggering weeks of mandatory water restrictions across the city. Concerns intensified again late last month when the same watermain ruptured for a second time on Dec. 30, forcing the city to reintroduc
