Calgary's Thunder Run water slide is gone after decades of freezing walkups, flashing green lights, and a climb that always felt endless. Before its final closure, the city gave it a proper send-off, with the mayor himself showing up to mark the moment.
That closure opens up a wider search through Canada's lost attractions, including a water park connected to a political scandal that ended a former BC premier's career entirely. Some of these places lasted decades. One ran for over a century before it disappeared and became a gated neighbourhood.
A few listeners text in their own version of a lost hometown landmark along the way, the kind of place that never made national news but still gets brought up years later.
