What you did was prove my point exactly. Because some elements of society are terrified of the word "traditional" they try to dismiss each and every tradition with ridiculous stereotypes and extreme examples.
Certain traditions have value. To Calgarians and southern Alberta, the Stampede and rodeo are one such tradition that sets out the identity of the city and region. It is based on efforts used to settle the land and region and is embraced by the corporate and personal culture of the city. This is a tradition that has value.
