Calgary-Peigan MLA Tanya Fir has apologized to a constituent after leaving a voicemail punctuated with profanity, which was shared online.

In the voicemail, which was posted to Substack by columnist Doug Firby, a voice that sounds like the MLA's can be heard referring to somebody as the "next motherf----r" toward the end of the message.

The message appeared to be one of multiple calls and voicemails Fir was making to constituents.

Firby told CBC News the voicemail was left on another constituent's phone on Nov. 10. He said the message mentioned Firby's name and phone number, which prompted that person to forward the recording to him.

"My MLA had left a voice message with this other person ... and didn't realize that she hadn't hung up the phone when she finished," he said.
