Calgary residents are getting a happy diversion from their water woes, as its annual Stampede summer festival begins today with a downtown parade.

The parade comes a month to the day after a major water main broke in the city’s northwest, flooding streets and turning off the taps to 60 per cent of the drinking water for the city and surrounding communities.

Crews scrambled to repair the line and, in the process, found five more weak spots to fix.

Saskatchewan Justice Minister Bronwyn Eyre announced Thursday the province has filed for an injunction to stop the federal revenue service from going after the province's bank account.

The application, filed in Federal Court in Vancouver, argues it's unconstitutional for the agency to take from the province's consolidated revenue fund, Eyre told reporters.
