As for needing Calgary, don't make me laugh, Silver. If It wasn't for the 2 specialists I have to see, there's nothing in Calgary that I can't get in Okotoks. 
You also might want to talk to the 4 young enterprisng guys from Calgary who have been going up and down my street rebuilding people's decks. They are making a very good income in High River. |
People are flocking there because they pay nothing for property taxes and get much larger houses on a larger piece of land for far less than you could ever dream of in Calgary.
They will also tell you at every opportunity that they can make it downtown in 20 minutes despite the fact that every time they utter the words a part of their brain feels hot as they remember the 2 hours they spend in the car every day to get to their community where they don't have to worry about traffic.
