“Intended to do this some time ago, better late than never. I adopted -this- silly hairball March 2025. He is my second bunny, but my first son. We started out slow and gently, and in time Sugar has made himself very comfortable! He loves his fox plush, raspberries and personal space very much, doesn't mind some love between his ears every so often, but shys away from the brush which we are still working on! His favorite lounge spot is my swivel chair which I have been forced to surrender to him. We call it his throne! A massive thank you to CHS for giving important information and care advice during the entire process, and even more so for letting my socially awkward self adopt this anxious king. I've learned a lot in the past ten months about rabbit care, and I can't wait to help another bunbun in need from here specifically when I have a bigger place!!”

“We dropped off donations at Samaritan’s Purse Canada in the NE, back in early December and we couldn’t be more grateful for the kindness and accommodation we received. We had unfortunately missed the posted deadline because things had been incredibly busy on our end, but the staff were still so welcoming and understanding.
They took the time to assist us without hesitation, and their positive attitude truly meant a lot. It’s not just about accepting donations — it’s the way they treat people with warmth and appreciation that really stands out.
We deeply value the work they do every year for communities in need, and seeing their dedication firsthand makes us appreciate their mission even more. Thank you to the amazing team for being so kind and accommodating — it does not go unnoticed.”

“Amazing store for an amazing cause. Best prices on unique pieces, and items I wouldn't buy otherwise. The book room is my favourite part, with hundreds of books for a dollar or less.”

“Nice lake, huge rainbow and brown trout but they are so picky that they wouldn't bite a 5 course meal if it was in front of them. Please stock some new kinds of fish to spice it up.”

“Nice place to work and have fun time with cats. They are all very angelic. If you are only a cat person and not a dog person, then this place is not for you. Cat room is all surrounded by dog kennels. Some staff are also careless while hoovering around with dog they forget the cat room and volunteer in cat room. There is a possibility that you can be cornered by a distressed and aggressive dog.”

“Very convenient and one hall can be booked for less than $500 but this place needs some serious renovation/restoration. Sometimes they don't mention that if you wish to have Alcohol served at the party it can only be by the person designed by them and the alcohol they provide. Which can add to the cost quite a bit. Good enough room for Gathering of up to 80 people. The kitchen is included in the price and you can bring your own food.”

“The society was very helpful when my husband passed away. Service was great and the price was very reasonable. My mom's funeral cost over $12K in Lethbridge (not including casket she pre-purchased, and no including funeral plot. This was not through the Memorial society).”

“Calgary Pride celebrations have come a LONG way in just a few years! The 2024 Pride Festival was amazing: best location ever, actually "something for everyone" and great attention to detail to meet the needs of a diverse group of people!
My suggestions of "areas to improve" = Pride Guide was difficult to read. I wish the Pride website included unofficial Pride events like the Dyke & Trans March. Thank you to all the Pride volunteers!”

“One of my favourite Value Village locations in the city, I never leave empty handed! Always a great selection of stuff, the store is much cleaner than some other Value’s, and the employees are awesome! My only issue, as with every other thrift store nowadays, is that some of the prices can be crazy sometimes when you remember that these are used, donated goods at the end of the day. But you can still find tons of good deals if you look hard enough!”

“SMALL SELECTION, A BIT OVERPRICED
Not very much to choose from, I suggest calling ahead. They do have lots of art and clothing. Store wasn't too busy but you may have to make multiple trips to find specific items.

Many items were broken, be sure to check the back of artwork for damaged frames. One particular g had the while backing and hanging wire was destroyed and they offer 1$ off the 12$ painting...”
