Calgary ‘at risk of running out’ of drinking water if usage not reduced after water main break

Emergency officials issued a dire warning to Calgarians on Friday as a water supply emergency — brought on by a massive water main break earlier in the week — still has no timeline to be resolved. “This current level of water use cannot continue, … [or we will be] at risk of running out,” said Nancy Mackay, the City of Calgary’s water services director. “We must all further reduce our water use to effectively use our remaining water supply.”
