Restaurants, malls, businesses (work opportunities), University, arts, Heritage Park, Calaway Park, Science Centre, etc. etc. are in Calgary. Maybe you'll have a bit bigger house, but you'll have way less opportunity for a higher quality of life. Can't for the life of me imagine how moving to a parasite community could make sense to anybody.

You basically answered your own question. He's talking about Okotoks, not Vulcan.
I'd happily take on a longer commute to a "parasite" community to get away from the madness that is Calgary. Man this town pisses me off some days. Getting into a smaller, quiter community is very desireable.
