Well, the road design would be fine if it didn't go from 80 on Crowchild to 30 over the bridge with a bottleneck of people merging off Mt. Royal Gate immediately before, then back to 80. Course, there isn't much they could do better with the space they have.

And yes, they build that nice 1KM merge lane and idiots slow everything down trying to merge within the first 50m.

As far as freeways go, Deerfoot Tr. and Stoney Tr. are the two legally designated freeways by the province. Glenmore definitely is the next closest to being a fully free flow highway.
