Or
The person that thinks the world of 8B people and counting will somehow suddenly agree somehow that growth is no longer a thing that should happen, people should no longer have kids, Canada should cease growth in BC / Alberta or accept that a hotel in Banff in 3 years will cost $4,000 a night, and never again allow any development in the hundreds of thousands of square kilometres of wilderness in the second largest land mass country on Earth and the least densely populated country?
To be honest, the anti-development rhetoric that comes from Vancouver / Vancouver Island constantly has me wondering what world they are living in.

Alberta is absolutely more diversified than BC now. I'm well aware of how ####ty my province is.
We need thinking about properly densifying our cities and making them more family friendly.
Or you can continuing building sprawling suburbs and strip malls.
