Was just approved for an apartment in Mission, moving in on August 1! My first solo apartment, so stoked! Alllllll the Mission photos to come.

Enjoy the neighborhood. I used to live in Mission back in the day. Loved it.

Way to go urban warrior! Although I'm surprised you gave up the fraternity, you'll enjoy the energy like I did when we moved from Haysboro!! ?

Thanks man. I'm not giving up the fraternity though, I'm just moving out of the frathouse. I'm 6 years older than the next oldest guy here and I'm sick of cleaning up after these kids. It's just time to have my own space, I've earned it

I don't blame you, hope it's got a great view!

Nah, it's just the top floor of a 3 story building, living room/bedroom is south facing, but there might be a decent view from my kitchen, I didn't think to look when I did the walk-through.

Fair enough. I face south too.

New bilingual stop signs are up in Mission (Rouleauville)

That is about the only bi-lingual signage I have seen in that part of Mission. I know the history but why bi-lingual stop signs?
Actually it's pretty ironic they would choose a stop sign to show off the bilingualism, since most stop signs in the world actually use the word 'Stop', even in France they use the word 'Stop', however Quebec is one of the rare places they don't, so I guess it's a nod to French Canadians.
Personally I'd rather see them go back to using some of the original French street names.

The stop signs were recently funded by a local community group. Here's an article from back in June after it was debated at Council. https://calgaryherald.com/news/loca...itch-to-bring-bilingual-stop-signs-to-mission
