In Calgary personal e-scooters can only be used on the pathway system. Only rental e-scooters can be used on sidewalks as well as pathways. So you technically have to carry or push your personal e-scooter from your private property to the nearest pathway. Glad I went the pedal assist e-bike route.
I actually double checked that yesterday haha I was extremely surprised to see they were not legal. Basically no restrictions other than speed and where you ride them where I live.
