We are excited to share this new @HistoricaCanada#HeritageMinute celebrating
Normie Kwong. Born & raised in Bridgeland, sports and friendship with other immigrant kids was a big part of his early life. We are proud that one of our local parks has been named Normie Kwong Park.

We are very excited to be partnering with @CalgaryPolice launching a Community Engagement Link at the BRCA community hall. Residents can stop in to chat with officers, ask questions, and chat about concerns. Wednesdays 10am-3pm.
The initiative in Bridgeland is in direct response to a survey that revealed community members had significant concerns over crime and social disorder in the inner-city neighbourhood.
