A Calgary councillor is hoping to revive a pilot project that would allow those of legal age to imbibe in city parks. "We just finished a very successful program where during the winter months we had bookable fire pits in different public spaces. I actually have a Notice of Motion coming forward to pilot open consumption in parks as a Covid response. If #yyccc approves we’ll treat picnic tables like this winter’s bookable fire pits as a start for this season. A 2019 city survey found a slight majority were in favour of allowing public consumption.
