Sorry, but I live in Sunnyside. IMO, This proposal will turn the best community in Calgary into an over crowded shanty town. 2x/3x the noise, over crowded street parking, views from a park turn into views of a building, and more "less than desirable" tenants. Meanwhile, the distant suburbs continue to live life on their giant lots, with none of these hassles. Sunnyside is a gem, and I firmly believe this will destroy it.

Sorry Nenshi, I may have to vote for Ric. Although he stands for next to nothing I want, he does have my side on the most important issue to me. Kind of sad, but it is what it is.
How are you sure that secondary suites will do that to your neighbourhood? I live in Inglewood (which I think kicks Sunnyside's ass) and it's not particularly a concern of mine.

Not everyone in Sunnyside is going to apply to have a secondary suite.
