Hillhurst, for example, has next to no community spirit left. When I was a kid, there were block parties, christmas caroling, and all that jazz. Now there's nothing, and the residents are getting old and complacent about the whole thing.

while that's a fair point that may be symptomatic of modern society (in every city) than a damnation of Calgary suburbs. heck Hillhurst isn't exactly suburbia (not that you are claiming it is)
I think its a fair point in response to the statement that all of Calgary's current suburbs are soul-less places where people don't know each other. that hasn't been my recent experience either
