To stop growing is a ridiculous thing to wish for in an amazing, forward thinking city like calgary.

I think growth is ok as long as its slow & steady. Major population jumps like what we see during a boom just put crazy pressure on the infrastructure. People debate about the ring road but it should have been completed 10-15 years ago.
Growth can be positive as long as tax dollars are properly managed and put towards schools, infrastructure as needed
