There are so many ugly looking areas of Edmonton that it seems like one is always driving through some sort of industrial looking ghetto residential area. So ugly. Far away from the Mountains. Bleh.

Not to go all OilKiller or TRANSFORMERSFAN here but your Edmonton isn't my Edmonton. I love this city. Whyte Ave is simply amazing. Old Strathcona is the heart of my Edmonton. My Edmonton is metropolitan, my Edmonton has a thriving arts community, my Edmonton is meeting friends for coffee and discussing literature. My Edmonton is nothing like a 'mega Red Deer'.
Simply put, I love living here. And I'm really sorry you don't.
