This article was in the Calgary Herald on June 28th, 2011, about some leaky condos in Calgary. It quotes Calgary Liberal MLA Kent Hehr speaking out about this issue.

This article was in the Calgary Herald August 12th, 2011, about PC leadership candidates at a forum in Fort McMurray, about condo issues in that city. (this is not just a problem in Calgary!)

Of course, this is an issue for single-family homes too.
Yesterday and today, I emailed ALL of the PC and Liberal leadership candidates, as well as Calgary Liberal MLA Kent Hehr. I haven't heard back from any of them yet, but it has only been one day, so I am still hopeful that I will hear back from at least some of them!
I also emailed our MLA, Minister Lindsay Blackett, since we are in NW Calgary. I was pleasantly surprised to hear back from his assistant only 8 minutes after I sent the email!!! After she had the chance to actually speak to Minister Blackett about it, she was able to arrange for a phone meeting with us and Minister Blackett for Monday afternoon. So, someone from the government is actually willing to talk to us about this!
I would strongly encourage anyone else facing similar issues to also contact the government about this. Please let me know if you can think of anyone else I should email!
