1. Since when has Calgary not embraced ourselves as city with a theme for access to skiing/camping/quading etc? We've pushed that theme to the max in attracting visitors for as long as I've lived here.
2. That's exactly what the city has been doing for the last few years. We're starting to see the results now. It's fine if you think we're not there yet, but your post seems to imply that you're bringing it up as something they aren't currently doing.
Agreed with the rest though.
