The @CityofEdmonton is only opening outdoor pools this summer for two months because of budget cuts. @OCLYEG has had to fight almost every budget cycle to keep our outdoor pool open, and in 2020, I decided to compare #yeg to other cities in Canada 🧵

Edmonton has almost a million residents, which means each of our outdoor pools serve 200,000 residents.

Calgary has eight outdoor pools managed by a non-profit association (rare in Canada). They charged $5 entry in 2021, compared to $9 in Edmonton. Ratio: 160,000/🌊.
