Thank you to Kevin Allen, who runs calgaryqueerhistory.ca, for the background information provided from Calgary Gay History Project’s archives and for the connections with Nancy and Leslie. Thank you to Nancy Miller, who was very helpful in recalling early eighties queer Calgary. And thank you to Leslie Wilkins for the spur-of-the-moment chat recalling the Womyn’s Collective and Lesbian Information Line, which was such a great service to so many Calgary women back in the day – so much was clarified for me in our short conversation. Thank you to Sharon Stevens, who has kept and gathered historical Calgary information and passed it on to me like a champ. A shout-out to my brother Mike for helping me get the beer brands right and for consultation on the kind of work a man like Jimmy Murray mi
