My taking on this is if they force us all to move into apartments and crowd us in, isn't that telling us where to live and how to live, isn't that a form of communism?

Nobody is discussing forcing anyone to move anywhere, and nobody is suggesting we bulldoze the suburbs and replace the single-family homes with high-rise condos. What is being suggested is that future community developments in Calgary are designed to combat sprawl, have a greater amount of higher-density housing, and that neighbourhoods are built to be "walkable", meaning residents can live, work, play, and run their errands (such as grocery shopping, etc.) without having to use their cars. Oddly enough, this is exactly what Calgary's urban planners are already doing.
