Have any of these people ever been to a small town school? They typically have lower quality teachers and the kids there are so bored theres nothing else to do but booze, drugs and having 12 people knocking up the same slut.

Airdrie isnt nearly that bad because its actually a sizeable place, but some of the smaller towns are pretty grim.



But, but, but, the small towns are the greatest place in the world to raise your kids!!!! The Big City is so dangerous!
I lived in Redcliff for the first 10 years of my life before moving out to Calgary, but I still went back to visit every year since my cousins still lived there, and you pretty much nailed it. I mean, not sure if it's the same anymore with the internet nowadays, but back in the 80's, they had one crappy public library, a small rec centre, 2 elementary schools, and 1 junior high. They didn't even have a high school as kids were bused to Medicine Hat instead.
