It appears the root cause it not the upgrade, but a Captcha I am being presented with but unable to access.
To narrow down the issue (which was authentication for all my calendars) I turned off all my "Online Accounts" calendars and kept only one Google calendar that I had created manually.
I then disabled the calendar to keep it from prompting me.
Next, I went into the Properties and tried to retrieve the calendar list to stimulate a re-prompt for password.
What followed was a dialogue I have not seen before, which stated "A CAPTCHA must be filled out to log in".
I am not sure how to resolve this, as I don't require it when browsing in chrome as my session remains valid in my browser when looking at my calendar using the same username.
