I'm just surprised there's actually people around here who think a step in the right direction for a size of a million people and growing steadily is to let high school kids design a signature bridge as an integral part of our infrastructure.

Well ladies and gentlemen, if you're going to do that, you may as well let them design our interchanges, causeways, LRT lines and flow lanes while you're at it. And all because we have to do it for the children!

This isn't sarcasm coming from snobby elite architect; this is coming from a normal Calgary citizen who knows that leaving architecture to the architecture professionals IS THE INTELLIGENT THING TO DO.
