When reached for a comment, the City of Calgary stated it is committed to safety for all Calgarians.
“We want to ensure that all who live, work, and visit Calgary feel safe. We have zero tolerance for this type of graffiti. It has no place in Calgary, and we condemn this in the strongest possible way,” reads the statement.
“The City as an organization will never stop its efforts in making public spaces hate-free for all Calgarians, including removing posters such as these whenever we come across them.”
