Yep, time to end negotiations with them and go full steam ahead with plan B. Too bad since they would be getting a pretty sweet deal in return along with opportunity to build a great revenue generator with their planned commercial district. Oh well.

Sorry Lakeview residents, we're gonna need some of your houses.
I honestly don't see a plan B for this. Other than a similar option to the 2009 option, the next best option (by far, IMO) is to continue to wait until such time as Plan A can be repackaged and voted on again.

The "toll" paid to the reserve can be the profits made from all of the prime land that thousands of Calgarians would drive through every day. That alone should be enough to support the reserve perpetually.
