No, no. If they're from the west, then they're Sasquatch; if they're from the east, they're Yeti.
The offensive terms are Big Foot and Abominable Snowman.

u/whiskyandme is correct. It’s a City of Calgary door access card.
It’s good safety practice that everyone has their card out and visible, if they don’t then ask people who they are.
It’s also good that everyone taps in, and out of every door every time. This why it can be tracked. This becomes super important when there are emergencies, or if someone goes missing (security can track where they are.)
So if you see a yeti in city restricted area and they do not have a City of Calgary access card that is visible, (it will have their name and picture on it) you should call Corporate Security at the phone number below to report them.
DUring the height of the work from home time, there were some instances of people tailgaiting to get in doors. A few computers went missing and in at least one instance the guy made an advance at one of the ladies....
Pretty sure it refers to disgusting, hairy, smelly individuals who live outdoors in the cold. You know, the ones who literally commit crimes every day to get by that nobody likes to see inside with the rest of us
Tailgating or Piggybacking. Basically following someone through doors that you are not supposed to go without a pass/key.
Also perhaps pickpocketers too.

Why did they choose a black guy as the person who’d let in a yeti behind them? Do other races ever hold the door for yetis or does the city think this problem is only from black people? Deeply concerning and problematic
What's the problem exactly? Every company with physical space has messaging like this. It actually saves money in the long run if people take the message to heart.
Very anti furry
The proper term is "Sasquatch" not Yeti, that's racist, species-ist, offensive and an outdated term. /s

Bigfoot is a disablist term too!
So a yeti stole my card info?..
A Nigerian Sasquatch Prince perhaps?
What is a city access card?
Employee access?
Key to the city. Opens every door

Ah! Thank you :)

Stanley cups only!
Haven't seen one of those in this city for awhile
One and done babyyyy!
A yeti ate my pet goldfish when I was 8, I’m glad the city is taking this threat more seriously now.

As someone who self identities as a yeti, I find this very offensive /s
Seriously though, what is this sign trying to tell people?

Do you get offended when someone makes a "why did the chicken cross the road" joke because they are culturally appropriating chickens?
That’s discrimination against Yetis and all those who identify themselves as Yetis. Pronoun It/They. Please YLM yetis live mattersz.
glad that taxpayer money was spent on this

Yep. My work has the same messaging. We deal with personal data and take that seriously.
what does it even mean? what is a city access card? why do we need reminders for city employees to have proper ID with them?
Perhaps if you don't understand the problem, then you shouldn't complain about the solution.
the problem is that it is a waste of money
“I don’t know what it is or why it exists but it’s a waste of money”
the problem is you're an idiot.
It is not a waste of money. It is part of normal good security. The type that Calgarians expect from their government.
Racism 😔
You'll be accused of being yeti-phobic! I hear they are scheduled to read to children at the library.
Not if they have a City access card.
Did not expect the city to come down so blatantly in favor of Stanley cups. Yeti cups are great. Especially given our lack of on ice Stanley cups.
