As such is sadly the case, the entitlement to infrastructure that allows one to live 45 kms from the city is all-too-often considered a right by suburban dwellers. I would much rather the entire cost of their habitation decisions was theirs to bear. That means toll highways, paying for the marginal cost of sewage and power lines instead of average cost pricing that hurts inner city dwellers disproportionately.
Infuriating sense of entitlement. rant...

Seriously. Who's living 45km from the city (core, I presume)? Christ almighty, Okotoks is 37km away from Prince's Island Park.
While I enjoyed living downtown well enough, the bums, criminals and pollution are deal breakers for me.
