There is an "us vs. them" history there clouding things, but I'm sure if you sat down and went through all the issues that are important to you, you'd have more in common with Toronto Cowperson than you would with Didsbury Cowperson.
I often think Toronto is what Calgary will turn into eventually.

The bolded portion is a huge difference between Toronto and Alberta. Calgary consistantly polls lower on all of those questions.
