I've heard little to nothing of either. If they're world class, don't you think I should be hearing more about them being in such close proximity?
I've heard more of Edmonton's failed imitations of the Stampede than those. And I still don't know what K-days is.
Perhaps you need to get out and travel a bit to really determine whether they're world class. Seems most Edmontonians don't get out a lot, but look at something in their city and just proclaim it's the best there is because it's the best that's available to them and that's what the people in the TV tell them.
Thing with Calgary is the hordes of tourists come through and actually tell us the area is world class. Do you hear such things from first timers that go through Edmonton?
