Water is something we don't take much time to think about each day; we use it for drinking, cooking, washing, cleaning, playing and more but not much thought is given to how it arrived to our taps or how much we're using when we water our lawns or run through our sprinklers. Water is a valuable resource in any community and Calgary is no different, how much do you know about water conservation?

Calgary isn't exactly a hotbed of possible emergency scenarios. Short of the unlikely yet surprisingly popular zombie invasion, our city is well insulated against disaster. That doesn't mean however that we shouldn't be diligent in our preparation. In conjunction with Emergency Preparedness Week, CREB® Now offers the following suggestions to help make it through that earthquake, tornado, explosion, outbreak or downpour.

With the Calgary Fire Department responding to several home and garage fires over the last few weeks, it might be a good time to brush up on some fire safety trivia to keep you and your family safe. CREB®Now takes a look at some of the facts and figures surrounding fires with an aim at ensuring your house and home remain safe this winter.
